In May 2003, the team won the gold medal in the First World
Championships for Standing Amputee Ice Hockey in Finland,
in a heart-stopping final match against Team U.S.A.
“I’ve been very fortunate in the past six years to have
the help of some of the world’s best in helping me recover
from my amputation,” the 38 year-old commented while being
photographed for the cover of the 2002-2003 Annual Report.
Don’s left arm was amputated in a farm accident in Lindsay,
Ontario in late 1997. He was airlifted to Sunnybrook and
Women’s College Health Sciences Centre.

Soon after, he set his first rehabilitation goal - to compete

to the meet”. For almost eight months, he trained up to six hours
a day. As the competition drew near, he still had not raised the
money necessary for travel expenses. The Sisters of St. John the
Divine at the Hospital provided the financial support he needed
to make the trip. “I came home with three gold medals. Since
then, the Sisters and I are really tight!”
Today, Don is looking to build a new career. He just
completed his first year at Durham College in a mechanical/
electrical engineering technology program. He also has a new
personal goal. To ensure other young adults who experience
amputations benefit by participating in competitive sports.

new program, with its provincial launch expected in fall 2003.
As a patient in St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital’s Stroke and
Neurological Rehabilitation Program, Imogene Smith participated
in a five-week program called Living with Stroke, an educational
resource created by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario
for stroke survivors and their caregivers. Hospital staff who
coordinate the program noted trends in nearly a third of the
participant evaluations. They identified program content was too
complex for patients who have aphasia, a common disorder
following a stroke that affects a person’s ability to communicate
and can seriously impact their ability to read or write. Revising
the program material would also better serve patients and families
who have English as a second language.
Through funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation,
hospital staff have spent the past year working with the Aphasia
Institute and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario

Provincial Report Card to Measure
Rehabilitation Performance
St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital is preparing to participate in the
province’s first standardized survey of patient satisfaction for Ontario
rehabilitation and complex continuing care hospitals. The results,
which will be released to the public in the form of a report card in the
fall 2003, will include important benchmarks for measuring inpatient
rehabilitation performance. The rehab survey, is being coordinated
by the Ontario Hospital Association. These surveys are a part of
one of the largest and most comprehensive hospital-level reviews
and public accountability processes in the country, and represent

one of the largest patient satisfaction surveys in North America.
National Rehabilitation Reporting System –
Evaluating Patient Outcomes
A new system to track the effectiveness of specialized
rehabilitation in helping patients achieve maximum function
has been implemented at St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital.
The computerized system records patients’ medical conditions
upon admission, the therapies they receive and the outcome of
treatment, both at the time of discharge and at later follow-up
in the community. The National Rehabilitation Reporting System
was created by the Canadian Institute for Health Information
(CIHI). St. John’s Rehab was one of 31 rehabilitation facilities
in Canada that pilot-tested an early version of the evaluation tool
in 1998. Since then we have implemented the system in all of
our rehabilitation programs.

Accreditation Process Focuses on Quality
Patient-Focused Care
Every three years, St. John’s Rehab evaluates its patient care
services and programs based on national standards set by the
Canadian Council on Health Services Accreditation (CCHSA).
That is followed by an independent, on-site evaluation by external
and objective reviewers using national standards of quality.
St. John’s Rehab has spent more than a year completing a selfevaluation and preparing for a May 2003 visit by three surveyors
from western Canada. The survey findings are expected in the
summer of 2003 and will be used to help us develop plans to
improve patient care and service in the year to come.

of the Rehabilitation Team
All of our 260 volunteers at St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital
contribute to a culture of care that creates a warm and supportive
environment for patients at the Hospital. Adult and student
volunteers are involved in many different programs that directly
support patients, their families and our staff. The Hospital Auxiliary
and our student volunteers contributed almost 20,000 hours
of dedicated service in 2002-2003 and raised more than
$56,000 for the purchase of specialized wheelchairs and other
hospital equipment.

Financial Performance
AUDITORS’ REPORT
We have audited the balance sheet of St. John’s
Rehabilitation Hospital as at March 31, 2003 and
the statements of revenue and expenses, changes
in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Hospital’s management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with
Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform
an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether
the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.
In our opinion, these financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Hospital as at March 31, 2003 and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally
accepted accounting principles.

Building a Future for Rehabilitation Excellence
2002-2003 Annual Report
Message from the Chair
Since its inception, St. John’s Rehabilitation
Hospital Foundation has generated $1.3 million
in support of specialized rehabilitation programs
and initiatives at St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital.
These funds have been used to purchase
specialized rehabilitation equipment and to fund education and
research. In the 2002-2003 fiscal year, St. John’s Rehabilitation
Hospital Foundation was asked by the Hospital to play a
leading role in building a strong base of community support for
the first major redevelopment and expansion of the Hospital’s
facility in 30 years.
To that end, the Foundation is pleased to announce its
initial pledge of $800,000 to an exciting Capital Campaign which
aims to raise between $12 and $15 million in community
support for a dramatic enhancement of the Hospital’s patient
treatment and service areas. This brings the total amount
pledged to date for the project to $6.3 million. The Foundation
believes this initiative, which will result in the construction
rehabilitation care for patients from across Ontario.
In partnership with the Hospital Board of Directors, we are
building a team of committed and experienced leaders and
volunteers who will help us realize our fundraising goal.
The Foundation would like to extend special thanks
to St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital Auxiliary for their gift of
$56,000 in 2002-2003. This gift was used to purchase
wheelchairs, other specialized equipment and to support the
Hospital Staff Education Fund.
On behalf of the St. John’s Rehabilitation Hospital
Foundation Board of Directors, I would like to gratefully
acknowledge the generous support of all of our donors and
sponsors this past year, especially those who contributed to
the successful 5th Annual St. John’s Rehab Golf Classic.
To the Foundation Board of Directors, the Foundation
and Hospital staff, your dedication and creative efforts in
2002-2003 have made it possible to develop our fundraising
programs and bring fresh perspective for future development
opportunities.
Sincerely,
of a new Outpatient Wing including a therapy pool and Wellness
Centre (highlighted on opposite page) and a new inpatient
treatment unit, will dramatically improve the quality of
