Dear Friends,
2015 Board Officers
The word “innovation” is often associated
with technology, but we’ve found that our best
breakthroughs come through innovation with a more
high-touch—rather than the high-tech—direction to it.
Steve Silva, Chair
Dan Dwyer, Vice Chair
Linda Gibson, CEO and Secretary
Kathi Metro, Treasurer
Innovation to us is about connection: real, live, personal connection. Connecting with those
who are vulnerable or falling through the cracks; connecting with those who can help us find
new ways to provide services or to deliver them; and connecting more closely with those we
already serve.
Board Members
We’re finding new ways to build bridges within our community and beyond, as you’ll see in
some of the successes we’ve highlighted here. But the goals and measures of success remain
the same: a substantial and positive impact on the health and well-being of our community,
and the long-term sustainability of our programs and services.
Staying focused on those goals is what has helped us grow from a small, single program to an
award-winning continuum of care—and that’s what drives us to this day: that ongoing quest
for better ways to reach out, help, and heal.
We’re proud of all we’ve accomplished in the last year; we are grateful to all of you for helping us
make it possible; and we look forward to the new bridges we can build together in the future.

Through a collaborative effort,
NVHADS and Partnership HealthPlan
of California (PHC) are at the forefront
of building a new model for providing
community-based palliative care
statewide to low-income individuals
with chronic, life-limiting illnesses.
PHC is a non-profit community-based
healthcare organization that contracts with
the State of California to administer MediCal benefits through local care providers.

Bridging
Being Ready When Opportunity Knocks
NVHADS Key Part of Development of
New Statewide Program
4
Dr. Robert Moore, the chief medical
officer for PHC (and former chief medical
officer of Napa’s own OLE Health), had
identified that members with progressive,
serious illnesses were often enduring
prolonged hospitalizations, visits to the
emergency department, and treatment for
problems that could have been avoided.
Moore knew that a community-based
palliative care program could prevent many
of these problems—such as uncontrolled
symptoms, inadequate social support and
a lack of communication—to help to keep
members well and out of the hospital.
The problem? Medi-Cal didn’t have an
outpatient palliative care benefit.
One Step Ahead
In 2011, NVHADS had identified a gap
in care delivery for those with chronic
and progressive illness and launched a
community-based program: Transitions
Palliative Care. Since its inception,
Transitions has cared for more than 550
patients in Napa County, providing an
extra layer of expert support that prolongs
independence and prevents unnecessary
hospital admissions and emergency
department visits for these individuals.
In 2014, the State of California passed
SB 1004, which paved the way for
developing regulations and a reimbursement
methodology for an outpatient palliative
care plan for Medi-Cal recipients. In
response, California Healthcare Foundation
funded a study to identify and implement
community-based palliative care.
With NVHADS’ already-proven success in
developing and delivering a palliative care
program, PHC and NVHADS partnered
on a proposal for the project and were
selected to participate in the study.
Learning from the Past for
a Better Future
“Other health plans have conducted pilot
programs that have shown some level of
success,” explains Moore, “but we learned
from these and the success of Transitions
how to deliver the most impact while
remaining sustainable at this larger scale.”
“The true measure of success in this effort
will be 1) better patient outcomes, 2)
improved patient and family satisfaction, 3) a
plan of care that is aligned with the patient’s
goals, and 4) a reduction in overall healthcare
costs when comparing the cost of palliative
care to hospitalization/emergency room costs.
“The U.S. has the most expensive
healthcare system in the world,” says Dr.
Moore. “I think California is setting the
stage for this new kind of care, and that the
model Napa Valley Hospice & Adult Day
Services is developing with us can be viable,
sustainable and equitable for the future.”
“Launching new programs such as this one and its Annual Palliative Care
Conference has really put NVHADS on the statewide map as far as forwardthinking models and services. It really speaks to the leadership at NVHADS. Linda
is a real visionary and I haven’t seen a leader of this caliber at any other hospice of
this size,” says Dr. Moore.
NVHADS Recognized
as California’s Leader
in Compassionate Care
Dr. Robert Moore, Chief Medical Officer for Partnership HealthPlan of California, and Linda Gibson,
NVHADS President & CEO, meet to discuss plans for the palliative care pilot program.
Hospital 2 Home – Pathway to Health
Supporting Patients on the Road to Recovery
After Leaving the Hospital
Sometimes innovation is less about blazing
new trails and more about finding new and
better ways to connect existing ones.
That’s what NVHADS did when it developed
its Hospital to Home (H2H) program in
partnership with St. Helena Hospital Napa
Valley (SHHNV).
NVHADS President & CEO Linda Gibson
and SHHNV President & CEO Dr. Steven
Herber were discussing the high number of
hospital readmissions among certain populations
due to conditions that could have been easily
avoided. “We have expertise in home care. I saw
no reason why we couldn’t successfully develop a
program together to help reduce the number of
readmissions,” explains Linda.
The two organizations identified the patients
most at risk for difficult recoveries or possible
readmissions after leaving the hospital. What
they found in common among these patients
was that they lacked health education and
proper supportive care. “These patients don’t
need professional at-home help,” says Nia
Lendaris, RVP of Patient Care for SHHNV,
“but they do need help making sure they have
the resources during their recovery to avoid
unnecessary readmissions.”
So Gibson approached SHHNV with an
idea for a care transition program for these
patients. The two organizations set up a
process for NVHADS to provide a nurse
navigator to:
• meet with identified patients before
discharge to discuss their needs and make
plans for follow-up contact
• visit the patient at home shortly after
discharge to assess their health status and
provide health information
• make sure the patient has scheduled
a follow-up appointment with their primary
care physician
• follow up with phone calls to support their
progress to recovery
The result?
H2H significantly lowered the readmission
rate among this at-risk population to nearly
half the overall hospital readmission rate.
The results were promising enough that
in July 2014, Partnership HealthPlan of
California asked SHHNV and NVHADS
to participate in the development of a
pilot program for its members to provide
a care transition program and to develop
a model that would be sustainable in rural
communities.
“The plan is straightforward and effective,
allowing us to ensure our patients have the best
outcome possible,” says Lendaris. “It extends
our ability to care beyond the hospital walls.”
Napa Valley Hospice & Adult Day Services
was awarded the 2015 Compassionate
Care Leadership Award by the Coalition
for Compassionate Care of California—a
statewide non-profit dedicated to the
advancement of palliative medicine and
compassionate end-of-life care.
The award is presented annually to an
organization that has distinguished itself
through exemplary service, commitment
and caring for those with serious illness or
who are approaching the end of life.
NVHADS was recognized for:
• A commitment to providing
person-centered care
• An organizational culture enabling staff
to better meet the needs of seriously ill
patients
• Significant contributions to the palliative
and end-of-life care community in
California
“Napa Valley Hospice & Adult Day
Services is a clear leader in caring for
the seriously ill in California,” said Judy
Thomas, JD, CEO of the Coalition for
Compassionate Care of California. “Their
ability to target services to underserved
populations in Napa County, and strong
community partnerships, make NVHADS
a role model for compassionate care
programs throughout California.”
“Napa Valley Hospice & Adult Day
Services is a clear leader in caring
for the seriously ill in California. Its
commitment to raising awareness and
influencing attitudes about palliative
care shows why this organization is truly
deserving of this recognition.”

Compassionate Care of California

Person-Centered Care
Innovation at the Personal Level
Sometimes the best innovations come from simply flipping an existing
model or way of doing things—and for Adult Day Services’ director
Celine Regalia, the inspiration came in the form of a random flier that
landed on her desk.
In adult day services, the traditional model is a program with schedules
and activities that are often based on the participants’ diagnoses as a
group, which can have an “if it’s Tuesday, it’s meatloaf” predictability.
Structure and consistency are important for some participants, but
these don’t always address an individual’s personal story, goals, needs,
or interests, and can create frustration, a lack of engagement and an
unequal relationship between caregiver and participant. While the ADS team strove to create engaging and rich
programming, Regalia thought there had to be a better way to
individualize a group program to each participant’s needs.
“I wanted to treat each of them as a person, not as an illness or
disability. I wanted to create programming that would honor the life
they had lived, and the life they now lived, despite appearances or
expectations,” she explains.
6
When she received a flier offering information and training in
a new “Person-Centered Care” model, she wondered if it was
answering the very question she’d asked. She and ADS Nursing
Services Manager Karen Proteau attended Wisconsin Alzheimer’s
Association’s conference to learn more and see the model in
action at Luther Manor Adult Day Services. They left with a
copy of Person-Centered Care in Practice, a guiding text written
by Lyn Geboy and Beth Meyer-Arnold, who had presented at
the conference.
The program is built on the idea of using respect and empowerment
to protect or, in some cases, restore participants’ personhood. Their
life stories drive the program, so rather than placing individuals
in existing activities or programs—putting the peg in an existing
hole—Person-Centered Care modifies the hole to fit the peg. If Joan likes quilting, or Tom likes singing, programming is created
around those activities in a way that allows those participants to help
develop, and often facilitate, the activity.
With Person-Centered Care in Practice to guide team members, they
reimagined programming to enhance existing physical activity and
mental stimulation, and monitor for loneliness and depression,
practices shown to improve participants’ brain health. The result? Participants were almost immediately more engaged and empowered,
but so were the staff and volunteers, which helped balance the
relationship between participants and staff. Together, they built the
program, and together, they reap the benefits of increased safety,
neural plasticity, independence, and social connectivity.
Evidence-Based, Person-Centered Care
“We had found a way to remove stigma around attending an adult
day center, by developing a rich program that treats participants
with respect, as an active member of their own care team and their
community,” said Regalia.
The Person-Centered Care model, now used by Adult Day Services for
three years, is more open and organic, designed to give clients a sense
of purpose. Some of its practices include:
Adult Day Services became one of the first adopters of Patient-Centered Care in California, and
was approved by the California Association of Adult Day Services to train other providers from
across the state in this new model, sharing best practices with other organizations.

“We watch for anything that can be a detractor for each
person—how the facility is set up physically, or if there
is discomfort due to unfamiliarity or a lack of interest, for
example—so we can remove anything that is a barrier to
engagement,” says Proteau.
“We pay attention to not just the words participants use, but to their
emotions or behavior. If someone has difficulty sharing thoughts or
needs, behavior can be the next-best way to communicate. Someone
acting in a way that could be interpreted as ‘aggressive’ or ‘anxious’
may be reacting to an unfamiliar or uncomfortable setting. Once we
discover and remove the cause, the behavior often disappears, and as
we get to know more about our participants and their stories, we’re
able to better identify any issue quickly.”
2
ADS pairs or groups participants with similar interests to
encourage self-directed activities.
“For example, one participant had been a science teacher,” explains
Regalia. “He loved to teach, so we worked with him to offer a science
class for other participants. We also have an ‘armchair travel’ program,
and when we found out that two participants were of Greek heritage,
we brought them together to co-lead a ‘trip’ focusing on the culture
and history of Greece. Both of these gave participants the opportunity
to share their knowledge, and to develop personal connections with
others, increasing social confidence.
“Another participant was quite reserved. We learned that she loves to
cook foods that reflect her Southern heritage, but is unable to do so
because she lives in a board and care home. We made a batch of grits
from her recipe to share with other participants, and as they enjoyed
her dish, she reminisced about her life in the South, her family and
cooking. She just opened up, even speaking into a microphone to
share her stories, with a smile from ear to ear.
“These kinds of activities can have a lasting effect and help to create a
community among participants who then are invested in looking out
for each other,” she says.
In response, between 2012 and 2014, ADS doubled the number of
programs available—in some cases adapting existing programs to be
more person-centered—including horticulture therapy, participant-led
activities, and quilting and sewing, and has received a grant to develop
a fine arts program with participants.
3
Empowering participants means not only looking at their
pasts, but looking to their future, so ADS works to help
them achieve personal goals, incorporating more therapies—
physical, occupational, or speech as needed—to help them
accomplish those goals.
“Person-centered care is not a destination, but an ongoing
journey,” Regalia explains. “By empowering participants to build
connections, use their interests, and meet goals, we celebrate their
individuality and uniqueness, and that means each new participant
enriches our program. “We measure success through how engaged each participant is,
because when participants are socially engaged, they feel respected and
valued, which is a birthright, no matter our age or condition.”

Finding the Middle Ground
Giving Veterans With Serious Illness New Options for Staying Well
and Independent
The Veterans Home of California-Yountville,
the largest veterans’ home in the United
States, has more than 1,000 aged or disabled
veterans calling it home. One of its goals is to
provide veterans with a living environment
that protects their dignity and contributes to
their feelings of self-reliance and self-worth.
One challenge has been helping those with
advanced, chronic illnesses maintain that
dignity and independence.
“We had been trying for years to be more
forward-thinking about quality of life for
vets coping with advanced chronic illnesses,”
says Julie Fields, MD, MPH, Chief of
the Ambulatory Care Clinic. “So when
NVHADS approached us to offer, free of
charge, its Transitions palliative care program
to our vets, we jumped at the opportunity.”
8
“The Veterans Home was once a hospital,
complete with an ICU, so for many years
there has been what I call a more aggressive
approach to treatment of serious, long-term
chronic illness. Our veterans are warriors—
they have been trained to not back down
quickly and of course they want to remain
independent at any cost—but what we are
finding is that more aggressive treatment
does not always equate to independence. In
the past there hasn’t been a middle ground
to meet them between aggressive work-ups/
treatment and ‘giving-in’ and moving into
skilled nursing care.”
“But adding palliative care allowed us to
create that middle ground. It has reduced
participating vets’ health complications,
increased their comfort and given them more
of a voice in the kind of care they want. It
allows them to stay independent for as long
as possible.”
“While our initial goal was for Transitions
to allow those with serious, advanced
illness who wanted to continue to live
independently to do so, we’ve found that
palliative care also gives vets the opportunity
to determine what ‘quality of life’ means to
them in the face of illness. They now know
what the options are and it allows them to
face these possibilities and to make informed
decisions for the future. They’re more
comfortable with planning to ensure their
needs and wishes are honored.”
“One of the operational benefits for the
Veterans Home of bringing in Transitions was
that we didn’t need to modify the existing
care plan here to incorporate palliative
care. Transitions Nurse Navigator Angela
Kaufman worked with our doctors, nurses,
social workers and section leaders to develop
processes, creating more resources for staff
and patients alike without adding another
level of bureaucracy.”
“It’s allowed both our staff and our residents
to think beyond treating illness to how to
create the best quality of life possible.”
Legacy
Society
Bonny & Tom Thrower
For many, making a gift to NVHADS is
a personal way to say thank you for the
care they or a loved one received from our
organization.
For Bonny and Tom Thrower, however,
including NVHADS in their estate planning
was about the future. “It’s self serving, in a way,”
says Tom. “We hope to never need their services,
but it is such an important part of the Napa
Valley, and we wanted to help make sure it’s
there in the future for anyone who needs it.”
“My sister was a hospice social worker in
Phoenix, St. Louis and Denver, and we’ve had
friends who’ve used NVHADS’s services, so
NVHADS is near and dear to our hearts,”
says Bonny.
Originally from Missouri, the Throwers
moved to the Bay Area in 1975. In 1996,
they built a second home in Yountville and
moved here full time after retiring. They
learned about NVHADS when their friend
Valerie Peebles joined the board at NVHADS
and invited them to attend the organization’s
annual gala.
The Throwers have continued to attend
the gala whenever possible and support the
organization with annual contributions, but
last year they decided it was time, as Tom
says, “to step up and make a worthwhile
contribution,” by including a legacy gift
in their estate plan. “We had our attorney
rewrite our trust to add an addendum, we
gave a copy of the addendum to NVHADS
and it’s all done.”
“So many of us put off major decisions,
thinking, ‘I’ll do it someday.’ But the time to
make these is while you’re healthy, so that you
can make thoughtful, informed choices without
the pressure of time or health concerns.
“There’s nothing to lose by supporting such
a worthy community service,” says Tom, “yet
so much to gain. It was an easy choice for us
to make.”
“Art washes from the soul
the dust of everyday life.”
–Pablo Picasso
And now, thanks to the generosity of renowned artist Ira Yeager,
the lobby of the NVHADS offices offers that experience to guests
and staff.
Yeager, whose work is on display in galleries and museums around
the world, donated an original 66” x 66” oil painting, “Floral
Still-Life, 1785,” to NVHADS which now offers a warm and
uplifting presence in the reception area.
Yeager was inspired to contribute after attending the agency’s
2014 gala where his friends Mary Cunningham Agee and Bill
Agee served as the Honorary Chairs. “I wanted to share a bit of
joy by donating this work,” said Yeager. “I hope it offers some
inspiration to the staff and those receiving services at NVHADS.”
We thank Mr. Yeager for making every day a bit brighter.

Volunteer Profile
Sue F. Payne
Transforming one arch of gold manzanita branches, eight strands of icicle lights
and 500 twist ties—not to mention 20 hours intertwining all of the above—into
a fantastic entrance to the annual NVHADS Light Up A Life is just one of the
creative ways Sue Payne has supported the agency over the past 25 years.
Sue, an artist and professional window designer, is the creative force behind the
Light Up a Life displays – from the early window displays and towering Christmas
trees in downtown Napa to the twinkling manzanita arch entrance that graces our
Light up a Life display at its current home, the V Marketplace, each year.
But Sue has also generously and creatively supported NVHADS through
another of her endeavors: the Sue F. Payne & Friends Annual Holiday
Shopping Extravaganza, an art show event featuring the work of dozens
of artists each December. Part of the draw of the show is the raffle Sue has
organized. “I ask each artist to donate something to the raffle, and I package
all of the items to create a lot worth at least $200. All raffle proceeds benefit
NVHADS, and we usually raise around $2,000 for NVHADS each year.”
Sue admits, “I am not good at asking for donations; I just don’t enjoy it. But
whether for the extravaganza raffle or for the early Light Up a Life celebrations,
I would say it was for Hospice, and people would just open doors, hearts and
wallets.”
“I guess because so many people, including me, have had loved ones that have
benefitted from their services, they are happy to help.”
“The staff are so dedicated and loving—they give any and every way they can.
One thing I really appreciated when I had family members receiving services
was how they work
with a person’s beliefs
and wishes—they
genuinely want to
know your perspective
and work hard to
meet your needs
within that. And
when I work on
the displays, they
show the same
unconditional
support, and they’re
always appreciative.
“It makes my
experience with them
a true labor of love.”

Volunteer Appreciation Dinner
Volunteer Profile
Paulette Timmer
Twenty years is a long run with one organization even
in a paid position, but Paulette Timmer has given two
decades’ of time to volunteering with NVHADS—
a long-term commitment that has allowed her
to observe and participate in the agency’s growth
from a small hospice program to a multi-program
continuum of care. She’s been through its four moves
to consecutively larger spaces, and has worked with
each of its three current programs.
Upon retiring in 1995, Paulette was looking for
volunteer work. She had always had an interest in
healthcare, and her daughter, then a hospice social
worker in another community, suggested she look
into the Napa hospice program. She did, and has
never looked back.
“We only had three RNs and two social workers
when I started here. I’ve provided respite and
caregiving, done office work, helped with events and
fundraising—whatever needed to be done.”
Paulette’s favorite work involves interacting with
patients. For many years, she worked with Hospice
patients and their families, a resource and relief to
those she helped. “When I would work with
a patient,” Paulette says, “I wasn’t there to help a
dying person—I was there to help a living person
going through a difficult time. I wanted to do what I
could to make life easier and more dignified for them
and their family during that time.”
“I’ve enjoyed seeing the organization grow by leaps
and bounds over the years, and while I no longer
know every employee and every volunteer, there’s one
thing that has never changed: I still always feel like a
member of a team focused on making life as positive
as possible for anyone who seeks our help.”

Thinking Beyond the Bottom Line
How Changing Energy Sources Can Also Improve Patient Care
NVHADS completed the conversion of its
facility from traditional electric power to
100% solar-energy-generated power—a move
with significant, long-term benefits in terms
of energy conservation and financial savings.
The system, mounted on the roof of the
facility, converts sunlight directly into
electricity and is expected to generate
approximately 158,550 kilowatt hours of
emissions-free electricity each year.
system and provided supplemental financial
support; and NVHADS Board Chair Steve
Silva and Director of Development and
Communications Joanne Sutro co-managed
the project.
“With this switch to solar, we are freeing
up thousands of dollars—approximately
$450,000 over the next 20 years—that can
be invested in programs, client care, caregiver
support and community services instead,”
said NVHADS CEO Linda Gibson.
The project was possible thanks to a
collaborative effort: Sustainable Napa County
and Napa County Energy Watch conducted
a facility-wide energy audit in 2013; the Peter
A. and Vernice H. Gasser Foundation shared
their expertise in selecting and installing a
“Thanks to the help of these community
partners,” said Silva, “we were able to make
the leap to an energy source that brightens the
future of our organization, the environment,
and the health and well-being of our
community.”
