Enhancing the
Patient Experience

www.ogh.org
Greater comfort
and convenience for
patients and visitors
O
lean General Hospital is committed to
providing each patient with a positive
hospital experience. In an effort to enhance
patient comfort and improve amenities
available to patients, several major renovation
projects were undertaken in 2008.
Patient rooms
In mid 2008, Olean General Hospital
initiated a $2.5 million project to renovate
68 medical/surgical patient rooms. This project
included the replacement of all patient room
furniture with new beds, chairs, tables and
flat screen televisions. The renovations
also included new paint, “wood look”
vinyl flooring, new window treatments and
coordinated cubicle curtains and wooden head
walls to enclose the medical gas system. New
patient lighting and a new nurse call system
were also installed and can now be accessed,
along with patient television controls, from
patients’ beds. Nursing stations and hallway
corridors have also been renovated.
Registration area
Renovations are designed
A new registration
area was created
with patients’ and visitors’
that includes floor
to ceiling private
feedback in mind.
registration rooms and
an enhanced seating
area for waiting patients. This project
was undertaken in response to patients’
desires for improved levels of privacy
during the registration process.
Cafeteria
A new cafeteria is now open and features
improved traffic flow, new seating, additional
menu items and an “upscale” look and
feel. Additionally, the cafeteria’s bathrooms
and exterior corridors were renovated
and enhanced.
To help each patient feel more at home,
an “art cart” program was developed that
allows patients the opportunity to select art
and pictures of their choice for display in their
rooms during their hospital stay. To improve
levels of satisfaction with the hospital’s food, an
expanded menu of food choices was introduced
for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and all food is
now prepared from “scratch” by the hospital’s
culinary staff.
Surgical waiting area
In addition to patient room improvements,
a new surgical waiting area was created with
improved privacy and more comfortable
surroundings, including expanded seating,
a cozy fireplace, and a soothing water wall.
A surgical consultation room and bathrooms
are provided in the new waiting area which
is adjacent to the lobby’s new food kiosk,
featuring gourmet coffee and fresh “grab
and go” items.
5
We’ve greatly enhanced our medical/surgical patient
rooms with many of the comforts of home, but it’s nurses
like Tiffany Lukehart, L.P.N., who provide the personal
comfort and care that make the difference.
Families who are visiting loved ones can enjoy home-style
meals in our beautiful, new restaurant-style cafeteria.
www.ogh.org
Emergency Department
Improvements to the Olean General Hospital
Emergency Department have enhanced staff
communication and have helped reduce patient
wait times. A remodeled waiting room and a
new flat screen television at each Emergency
Room bed provide added comfort for patients
and family members. In 2008, the hospital
recorded more than 34,687 Emergency Room
visits.
Paul Fratarcangelo, R.N., one of Olean General Hospital’s
Emergency Department nurses, notes that recent
improvements in the department have enhanced patient
comfort and reduced Emergency Department wait times.
Patients in the Emergency Department can watch new
bedside flat screen televisions while they are awaiting care.

Mildred Milliman
Radiation Medicine Center
With the development of the Mildred Milliman
Radiation Medicine Center, Olean General
Hospital, in collaboration with the renowned
Roswell Park Cancer Institute, now provides
the Olean region with state-of-the-art radiation
oncology services.
The center is named in honor of Mildred
Milliman, a long-time hospital employee
In partnership
with Roswell Park
Cancer Institute
and a generous hospital benefactor. The
center is specially equipped with a linear
accelerator and CT simulator and is staffed by
Roswell radiation oncologists and physicists.
This eliminates the need for Olean area patients
to travel long distances for radiation therapy
treatments.
New mobile PET/CT scanner
In addition to the 64-slice CT scanner located
in the hospital, a new mobile PET/CT scanner
is available for cancer diagnostics. A PET/CT
combines both PET scanning and CT scanning
into one comprehensive examination. The CT
portion of the exam provides a detailed analysis
of the structure of abnormalities or tumors while
PET (Positron Emission Tomography) provides
information regarding cellular level activity
within the abnormality.
Video conferencing with cancer experts at Roswell Park
Cancer Institute is just one of the advantages the Mildred
Milliman Radiation Medicine Center provides.
A spacious, new mobile unit combines PET and CT
scanning into one test, providing greater convenience
to the patient and more accurate diagnoses.

By bringing together the best in medical technology and
personnel, the Mildred Milliman Radiation Medicine Center is
improving the care, comfort and convenience of our patients.

The linear accelerator provides external beam radiation by
rotating around the patient and delivering a precision-targeted
beam of high-energy radiation to the patient’s tumor.

Helping to Train
Tomorrow’s Physicians
Working with area
colleges and universities
Olean General Hospital’s commitment to
medical education and training is evident in
the number of opportunities provided by the
hospital for pre-medical and medical students
and post graduate Residents.
This fall, the Hospital commenced a
first-of-its-kind Clinical Experience in
Medicine program for St. Bonaventure
University pre-medical students. The
program exposes pre-med students to 14
different clinical disciplines to better prepare
them for future careers in medicine.
Additionally, Olean General Hospital signed
an affiliation agreement with Lake Erie
College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM)
in Erie, Pennsylvania as a clinical site for
the college’s medical students. Beginning
in the spring of 2009, medical student
rotations at Olean General Hospital will
include internal medicine, obstetrics and
gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, emergency
and family medicine.
Olean General Hospital’s affiliation with
the State University of New York at Buffalo’s
School of Medicine and Biomedical Research
provides the only rural track family medicine
post-graduate residency training program in
New York State and helps to provide critical
primary care physicians for the Olean area.

Interstate hospitals
will integrate in 2009
I
10
n October 2008, Olean General Hospital and
Bradford Regional Medical Center announced
the signing of a non-binding letter of intent
to integrate the two hospitals under a new
parent company. The decision to pursue
this integration was approved by the board
of directors of both hospitals based on a
recommendation from a steering committee
that included the hospitals’ presidents, board
members and physicians. The integration
will be achieved through the work of a parent
company – an umbrella organization – that
will oversee governance and management of
the system with the goal of moving the two
hospitals as close to operating as a single
entity as possible, resulting in a strong, vibrant
healthcare system. When implemented, this
integration will represent a major step forward
www.ogh.org
Olean General and
Bradford Regional
Medical Center to
combine forces
for healthcare delivery in Northwestern
Pennsylvania and Southwestern New York,
and mark a new beginning for two long-time,
highly respected hospitals that share common
missions, values and cultures.
Approval and implementation of the integration
is expected to take about one year, following a
comprehensive due-diligence review by both
organizations’ boards of directors, completion of
all regulatory reviews and legal approvals, and
the adoption of a definitive agreement.
The benefits of the proposed integration will be
many. The two organizations will be better able
to withstand financial pressures in a weakened
U.S. economy, and to respond to financial
challenges brought on by rising costs and
“As part of an integrated, regional
health system with increased
resources, we will be able
to provide patients with
access to even greater care.”
- Timothy J. Finan, President and CEO
Benefits of the integration
n Improved local access to more and better
clinical services
reductions in government support and
reimbursements from health insurers. The
potential for improved clinical and service
performance and increased business stability
resulting from the integration will assure
an enhanced ability to attract and retain
high-quality physicians and clinical talent.
A strong regional healthcare system where
the member organizations increasingly operate
as close to a single entity as possible will result
in a more stable employment outlook for both
hospitals. Finally, it is anticipated that the
integration will provide significant capability
to introduce new and expanded programs and
services in response to regional health needs.
The integration of the two hospitals is consistent
with a national trend of hospitals seeking
cooperative relationships and taking necessary
steps to ensure their patients have access to
efficient, cost-effective and high-quality care.
Nearly one-half of the 4,900 hospitals in
the U.S. are currently in multi-hospital system
arrangements.
n Establishment of broader and deeper
clinical services capabilities to a
larger market that, over time, could
accommodate partnerships with
community hospitals and tertiary
centers
n Improved quality and efficiency of all
services, tapping into greater efficiencies
of scale and expertise
Size matters. Integration will lead to…
n a stronger system infrastructure to
provide better clinical services
n consistently effective diagnosis and
treatment through an enhanced ability
to recruit and retain high-quality
physicians, clinical talent and
management
n greater purchasing power and ability to
share overhead, keeping medical costs
manageable
n greater overall business stability and
a more stable employment outlook –
strengthening ties with the communities
we serve

Dialysis Center Receives
New Equipment
14 hemodialysis machines purchased
The Marie Lorenz Dialysis Center at Olean
General Hospital recently purchased 14
new hemodialysis machines. The purchase
of the new equipment replaces machines
that have been in use for the past 11 years
and was financed in part by generous
donors.
A lifeline for patients
New machines for dialysis and renal
replacement at Olean General Hospital’s
Marie Lorenz Dialysis Center improve
patient care and safety and assist with
the challenging demands of unique
nephrology cases. Patients now benefit
from the very latest technology, which
provides for more accurate treatment timing
and pre-programmed physician orders and
ensures that patients receive precisely the
treatments prescribed and required.
The Marie Lorenz Dialysis Center opened
in 1997 and provides life-sustaining dialysis
treatment to area patients.

New MRI Suite Improves Patient
Comfort and Image Quality
In early 2008, Olean General Hospital opened
a spacious, new 1,400 square-foot Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI) suite.
MRIs utilize radio frequency waves and a strong
magnetic field rather than x-rays to provide
remarkably clear and detailed images of
internal organs and tissues. Olean General
Hospital’s 1.5T high-field open MRI is
unparalleled in terms of image quality
and resolution.
In the past, the most powerful MRIs had
narrow tubes that made some patients feel
trapped or claustrophobic. The traditional open
MRIs have wider bores and give patients more
room, but at the cost of poorer image quality.
High Field
Open MRI
The new Espree MRI from Siemens delivers an
outstanding level of image quality while providing
a greater level of comfort for our patients.
greater image clarity and a higher diagnostic
confidence level for physicians.
MRI technology is invaluable for
detection and diagnosis of a
broad range of pathologic
conditions in all parts
of the body, including
cancer, heart and
vascular disease,
stroke, and joint
and musculoskeletal
disorders.
13
What distinguishes Olean General’s new system
is its combination of both the comfort of an
open MRI and clinical strength and image
quality of closed units. This new Espree MRI
from Siemens contains the most powerful
magnet anywhere in the area, resulting in

3-D Digital Echocardiography
The gold standard in cardiac imaging
New diagnostic imaging
technology has become
the latest weapon
available in the fight
against cardiac disease.
C
ardiac disease is the number one killer in
America, however, new diagnostic imaging
technology has become the latest weapon available
in the fight against this deadly disease.
14
In 2008, Olean General Hospital became one
of only a very few hospitals in Upstate New York
with 3D digital echocardiography capability.
Echocardiograms are non-invasive ultrasound
imaging procedures of the heart that create
pictures that enable clinicians to assess such
things as cardiac valve function and cardiac output.
With the hospital’s upgrade to this new system,
hospital cardiologists have the ability to view
amazingly detailed images of the human heart
instantaneously and from multiple perspectives
while examining its intricate workings. The
digital format allows tests to be instantly stored,
transferred, and reviewed in their original quality.
The significantly enhanced image quality enables
faster and more accurate clinical interpretations.
www.ogh.org
While this technology will likely be the standard in
three years, Olean General knew that quicker, more
accurate diagnoses, non-invasive procedures and
earlier detection and treatment were worth the
substantial investment of $750,000 today.
Olean General is currently the only facility in
the region with this sophisticated technology
and the only hospital in the area that has
received designation as a Credentialed
Sonographer Workplace.
Technology developed by the military
The 3-D Digital Echocardiography system utilizes
pure wave crystal technology developed by the
U.S. Navy and purchased and patented by Philips.
The resulting imagery provides unprecedented views
of the heart and blood flow and gives doctors the
capability to manipulate and turn the images to
see all angles of the heart, including their ability
to “look” inside the chambers.
A new 3-D Digital Echocardiography system is what allows patients to receive 3-D
full-color images (above right) instead of the old 2-D black and white images (above left).
The 3-D Digital Echocardiography system provides a higher level of diagnostic information
more quickly.
The system uses non-invasive sonogram technology to examine patients
with congestive heart failure, chest pain, palpitations and pre-existing
cardiovascular conditions. The live 3-D Echo image provides a real-time
view of the heart that allows patients and doctors to view the beating heart
as if they were holding it in their hands. Registered Cardiac Sonographers
administer the test for a cardiologist for their diagnosis and treatment
recommendations.
15
Utilizing this technology, cardiologists acquire extremely high levels of
diagnostic information and can provide answers for patients more quickly
and easily. The results from the exam often reduce the need for more
invasive procedures.

Gregory McCraith, D.D.S., helps to treat a growing
number of patients at the Gundlah Dental Center.
Gundlah Dental Center
Adds Chairs
to Accommodate
Growing Practice
16
The Gundlah Dental Center doubled its patient
treatment capacity with its recent expansion
to 11 dental stations. The expansion was
necessitated by patient volumes that have
increased to over 1,300 patients per month
as well as the growing need in Olean
and surrounding communities for quality,
affordable dental care. The center provides
routine cleanings, fillings and simple extractions
and accepts most insurance plans. The primary
focus and mission of the Gundlah Dental Center
is the provision of timely and regular dental care
for patients who, by virtue of insurance type or
lack of insurance, would otherwise not be able
to receive routine dental services. The Gundlah
Dental Center was named in honor of long-time
Olean General Hospital President and CEO,
Theodore W. Gundlah.
Recently, staff members have also been specially
trained to fit patients with dental apnea devices.
Working in conjunction with the Olean General
Hospital Sleep Disorder Center located at the
Hampton Inn, the dental center can provide this
comfortable alternative to the traditional sleep
apnea apparatus many patients find cumbersome
and difficult to use.

wound, it usually heals uneventfully on its
own. Patients with diabetes, high blood
pressure or cancer, among other conditions,
may experience chronic, non-healing wounds.
The Center provides a wide range of
comprehensive wound care services,
including the evaluation and treatment
of problematic wounds utilizing the latest
products and techniques in order to optimize
the likelihood of a positive wound healing
outcome. In addition, Hyperbaric Oxygen

Olean General is now a
SAFE Nurse Examiner
Center of Excellence
The New York State Department of Health
designated Olean General Hospital as a Sexual
Assault Forensic Examiner (SAFE) Center of
Excellence. This designation reflects the
hospital’s ability to provide trained and
certified nurse examiners and facilities to
meet all of the relevant standards, practices
and New York State criteria for the provision of
services to patients who have experienced rape
or sexual assault, including the prior collection
of forensic evidence. The hospital has a newly
designated and refurbished physical space
within its Emergency Department for victims of
sexual assault. Olean General Hospital is the
only hospital in the area with this designation.
There are currently 37 hospitals so designated
in New York State.
The SAFE program for victims of sexual assault
provides timely and compassionate care in a
private setting along with expert evidence
collection by a certified New York State
Forensic Examiner.
To meet the SAFE standard of medical care and
