impact advancing health care through philanthropy Winter 2011 2010 DONOR RECOGNITION ISSUE For Swedish Heart &Vascular Institute patients THE BEAT GOES ON Grand openings: SWEDISH WELCOMES PATIENTS AT TWO NEW FACILITIES from the CEO Checking our pulse — both here and in our community Improving the health of the community is central to our mission as a nonprofit health-care provider. For us, that means being here for patients in times of illness. But it’s also about helping people stay healthy and manage chronic conditions. We promote wellness and prevention in the community through many different partnerships and initiatives. One that I’m especially proud of is a unique partnership between Swedish and the Northwest African American Museum. Together, we are working to inform the local African-American community about five diseases that disproportionately affect this population: breast cancer, diabetes, heart disease, HIV/AIDS, and premature and lowweight births. In collaboration with our team and with support from other sponsors, the museum has developed a compelling interactive exhibit, “Checking our Pulse”, that helps drive home the need to prevent and/or manage these types of conditions. It also includes a history of African-American physicians and healthcare professionals in Seattle, including Swedish’s chief medical officer John Vassall, M.D., and breast surgeon Pat Dawson, M.D., Ph.D. By sharing this history, we hope to inspire local African-American youths to pursue medicine and health-care as a profession. It’s an important exhibit that’s received excellent reviews. I encourage all of you to take the time to see and experience it. You can find details at the museum’s web site, www.naamnw.org. It runs now through June. One of the conditions highlighted in the exhibit is heart disease. Though it disproportionately affects African Americans, it’s something everyone in our community needs to be aware of. Heart disease is the No. 1 killer in the United States, with more than 1.1 million Americans suffering heart attacks each year. The Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute is dedicated to the treatment and research of heart disease and has assembled a team of renowned cardiologists and cardiac surgeons to serve people facing the condition. The team is advancing a number of important initiatives, including a collective effort to develop a comprehensive program for managing heart failure. You can read more about the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute in this issue of IMPACT. Our work would not be possible without donations from private individuals, foundations and corporate partners throughout the region. As you’ll see on the pages that follow, we received significant support from the community in the year that just ended. Knowing all of you are behind us is inspiring and motivates us to continue our efforts to serve the community. On behalf of everyone at Swedish, thank you for your support and commitment to our nonprofit mission.

The clinic offers confidential primary-care and mentalhealth services at no charge to all 1,650 students at Ballard High School. Teens visit the center for concerns ranging from illnesses and injuries to confidential mental-health counseling, immunizations and STD testing. The center, which was started by Swedish in 2002, also provides smoking-cessation programs, nutrition and exercise counseling, general health information, and school-wide health promotion and classroom presentations. The official mission of the Ballard Teen Health Center is to “meet the physical and mental health needs of the students in a nurturing environment that fosters the well-being of the Ballard High School community, so students are safe, healthy, and ready to learn.” A multitude of Seattle Public Schools and local health-care pro- Ballard High School Teen Health Center staff (from left): Janna Pekaar, nurse practitioner; Paul Barry, social worker; and Kathy Soliz, patient care coordinator. viders participate in this school-based health program. Ballard High School was a natural fit for Swedish due to its proximity to the Swedish/Ballard campus as well as Swedish’s established ties to the Ballard community. School-based medical care helps students avoid health-related absences and get support to succeed in the classroom. “This is just one of the ways that Swedish assists people of all ages in our community, as well as encourages teens to take ownership of their health,” says Sara Rigel, manager of Patient/Family Education and Community Health, whose department oversees the Ballard Teen Health Center. During the 2009-2010 school year, the center had more than 2,300 visits (both mental health and primary care). It has been such a success that Rigel hopes to develop similar programs at other high schools. i Make an impact The Ballard Teen Health Center is part of a 14-clinic network in the Seattle Public Schools. The Families and Education Levy covers 65 percent of the program’s operating budget, with the remainder funded by Swedish, corporate partnerships, and generous community support.

BDA leads the way against ovarian cancer With 500 associates in 27 countries, Bensussen Deutsch & Associates keep their giving close to home and heart. BDA company founders Jay Deutsch (left) and Eric Bensussen. B ensussen Deutsch & Associates (BDA) is no ordinary company. Founded in 1984 in the garages of two Seattle best friends — Jay Deutsch and Eric Bensussen — out of a common passion for sports, the company is now 500 associates strong with 27 locations worldwide. The nation’s leading Merchandise Agency™, BDA helps Fortune 500 clients engage consumers on a 1-to-1 level through creative branded merchandise. It wasn’t just a shared passion for sports that brought these two childhood friends together: They also shared the unlikely coincidence and connection of having families touched by ovarian cancer. And years later, they have transformed their losses into a company-wide passion for giving back to the community. For 12 consecutive years, BDA has been a leading sponsor of the Swedish SummeRun, which benefits the Marsha Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research. “Our company’s dedication to Swedish and the Rivkin Center stems from both Eric and my personal experiences,” says Deutsch. “But, the energy and generosity truly comes from the entire staff at BDA.” Each year, BDA employees from across the country participate in a company fundraiser, affectionately named Spring Fling. Creative events are held over a two-week period, including barbecues, dunk-tank challenges, silent auctions, talent shows and a staff Olympics. “We really have fun with it,” says Deutsch. “At the same time, we engage our associates, vendors, friends and family in a very important cause.” To date, BDA has raised more than $600,000 for the SummeRun and ovarian cancer research. “Symptoms of this devastating disease are just simple aches and pains. Many women don’t know they have it until it’s too late,” says Bensussen. “Jay and I both experienced that unfortunate circumstance first-hand, and are doing our part to make sure others won’t have to live through it. Research is making a difference. People who give are helping survivors and their families every day.” “BDA is a role model of corporate citizenship,” says Clint Burwell, executive director of the Rivkin Center. “Their commitment to the eradication of ovarian cancer is without peer in our region’s corporate community.” BDA’s growth has been organic, enabling the company to maintain its distinct spirit of originality and inventiveness. “Through creative power and leadership, BDA continues to open new doors and blaze new trails,” Bensussen says. “We know the Rivkin Center reflects that same vision, and the research they promote will also blaze new trails in ovarian cancer treatment and early detection.” i w w w. s w e d i s h f o u n d a t i o n . o r g 5 FEATURE Thanks to the care he received at the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute, musician Ron Herring once again sings with a happy heart. When you think of winter in Seattle, it doesn’t typically elicit images of balmy days spent on the beach. Unless, of course, you happen to be at Bahama Breeze in Tukwila, listening to the cool sounds of Ron Herring. At age 63, he performs the kind of music that makes you smile: Covers of upbeat songs, for which he sings vocals and plays guitar, that conjure sunny days and tropical isles — think “Girl from Ipanema,” “Mambo No. 5” and any number of Jimmy Buffett tunes. With his buoyant melodies, penchant for aloha shirts and Panama hats, and happy-go-lucky attitude, he looks and acts like a guy who’s happy to be alive. And he is — even more so since his dramatic coronary scare five years ago. HEART STRINGS STORY BY Jennifer Schaefer PHOTOS BY Rosanne Olson 6 I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011 w w w. s w e d i s h f o u n d a t i o n . o r g 7 FEATURE RISING STARS: Herring, who lives in Burien, describes the onset of his symptoms this way: “I felt a tightness in my chest for a while, and I felt like I had the flu.” When he didn’t feel better after a few weeks, and also noticed that his complexion had taken on a grayish hue, he made an appointment with his general practitioner for a checkup. His doctor was sufficiently worried to send him for an EKG, after which he was informed: “You’ve had a heart attack, and you’re in danger.” Herring recalls, “They told me that one of my coronary arteries was totally closed and another two arteries were 90 percent closed.” He doesn’t remember much after hearing these frightening words — only that his doctors had him rushed to Swedish Medical Center on Cherry Hill in Seattle for further evaluation and treatment. At Swedish, Herring’s future hung in the balance as doctors decided whether to perform a risky heart-bypass surgery or pursue less-invasive measures. If he survived bypass surgery, doctors told him, he would probably be a candidate for a heart transplant. He received the best news he could imagine after being examined by Mark Reisman, M.D., a Swedish cardiologist and chief scientific officer. Dr. Reisman told him, “I think I can save you.” Under Dr. Reisman’s care, Herring’s condition was stabilized with the help of blood thinners, and plans were made to perform angioplasty — a procedure designed to enlarge a narrowing in a coronary artery via tubes inserted to help keep it open, allowing the normal flow of blood and oxygen to the heart. He had a stent inserted into each of the three blocked arteries in procedures performed by Dr. Reisman and his colleague, Amish Desai, M.D. — during which, at one point, the patient serenaded the operating-room team with a rendition of Buffett’s “Margaritaville.” Before 8 I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011 long, Herring was, amazingly, walking down the hospital corridors with the aid of a walker. After the insertion of a defibrillator and with the help of physical therapy, medication and a few crucial lifestyle changes — including quitting smoking and beginning to walk a few miles every Center alone, more than 800 patients are admitted each year with a primary diagnosis of heart failure, and it is a secondary diagnosis for close to 4,000 patients. “I wish heart failure had a better name,” says Howard Lewis, M.D, executive director of the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute. “The terminology — Howard Lewis, M.D. (center), executive director of SHVI, confers with colleagues prior to surgery. day — Herring’s recovery was, in his words, “miraculous.” Five years after his health scare, he says, “I’m as healthy as a hog. And I wouldn’t be here without the world-class team at Swedish.” Remarks Dr. Reisman, “Ron — who may not have survived us opening up his chest for surgery — had a remarkable recovery. This story is a testament to the whole cardiovascular team, especially the nurses. He had a great support system and he’s doing great five years later.” The heart failure epidemic In the parlance of practitioners, Herring’s episode was classified as “congestive heart failure” — a condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the needs of the body, and a common and often-deadly form of heart disease. Heart failure is a major health concern in the United States, affecting more than five million people, about 40,000 of whom live in the Seattle metropolitan area. And its incidence rates are rising due to an aging population and widespread, unhealthy lifestyle factors that contribute to the disease. At Swedish Medical ‘heart failure’ — is scary for patients to hear, but this is the term we use to describe what they have. There’s a severity and a gravity to it. And it is a big deal — it affects a lot of people and lives.” Heart failure is generally classified in one of two ways: as either “chronic” or “acute.” Chronic heart failure is a condition that is present in a patient for a long period of time and is not immediately life threatening. While chronic heart failure often becomes more serious over time, it can often be treated and stabilized through medications and lifestyle changes, such as exercise, weight control, quitting smoking and dietary changes, including a reduced-salt diet. It is occasionally treated with invasive or minimally invasive procedures, such as surgeries or implantation of devices that help the heart to pump sufficient blood. Acute heart failure — the form of the disease suffered by Herring — is more serious, characterized by the sudden onset of multiple, life-threatening symptoms resulting from major disruption of the heart’s functioning, due to a heart attack, trauma or some other cause. This condition can require immediate hospitalization, intensive care, multiple pharmacological and surgical interventions, surgical implementation of devices, or heart-transplantation surgery, in order to restore patients to a condition in which sufficient blood is pumped to their bodies. When these patients are stabilized, the goal of the care-giving team is to help them return to a normal way of life. Experts have found that treating both types of heart failure successfully requires regular and ongoing medical care — often over many years — to manage the disease via drugs and lifestyle changes, and to track its progress. “It’s not like treating a case where the patient drops a hammer and breaks his toe, gets a splint and get better,” says Dr. Lewis. “Treating heart failure is much more complex and longitudinal. There’s a lot more context in how we need to successfully care for these patients.” The availability of a comprehensive center that specifically addresses and coordinates all treatment aspects for heart-failure patients — ranging from relatively healthy individuals recently identified as at risk for the disease to those with end-stage heart failure — is vital for these patients’ recovery, says Dr. Lewis. This multi-disciplinary approach requires a team of caregivers — which might include family practice physicians, cardiac specialists, heart surgeons and experienced nurse practitioners specializing in the disease — who collaborate to treat and manage every aspect of their patients’ cases for a seamless continuum of care. “It’s all about providing a meaningful outcome for patients,” says Lewis. A comprehensive heart failure center at Swedish As part of supporting Swedish’s mission to provide compassionate, highquality care to patients, a Comprehensive Heart Failure Center is being developed at its Cherry Hill campus, which will be a major part of the existing Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute. The Center will be located in a 7,000-square-foot space on the fourth floor of the James (cont.) Upholding a lonstanding tradition of research Since 1996, the Swedish Research Center — which has an 85-member staff, including Mark Reisman, M.D., the Center’s chief scientific officer — has been a critical component of Swedish Medical Center. Swedish’s research activities focus on clinical — or “translational” — research that often has an immediate and direct benefit on a patient’s outcome. As the largest health care provider in the Puget Sound region, Swedish has long been focused on providing physicians and staff with access to, and expertise in, using the most advanced medical technologies, treatments, devices and equipment. At any given time, more than 600 research projects are underway at Swedish in several areas, which rely heavily Mark Reisman, M.D., Swedish’s on clinical trials to test the safety and effectiveness of chief scientific officer. new treatments, drugs and medical devices. Swedish is an ideal place for this, due to its large patient base and experienced physician-researchers and researchsupport staff. Breakthroughs in cardiovascular medicine As the most common cause of death and disability in the United States, cardiovascular disease is an important area of research. Diseases of the heart and vascular system result in 900,000 deaths, and many more disabling conditions, each year, affecting nearly one in four Americans. Research of cardiovascular illnesses have, in recent decades, led to improved survival rates and quality of life for patients, due to advanced technologies and better understanding of the cardiovascular system. The Swedish Cardiovascular Research department makes it possible for Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute (SHVI) patients and physicians, many of whom are national leaders in their specialties, to participate in drug and device studies — including investigational treatments only available in a research environment — that provide more options for treating cardiovascular conditions. In the last three years, the number of physicians involved in research at the Institute has doubled. Currently, a number of cardiovascular studies and clinical trials are being conducted at SHVI, including those in the rapidly developing field of structural heart disease, an area of research in which the Institute is a national leader. Rising Stars Swedish’s cardiovascular researchers have a new source of support, thanks to SHVI’s Rising Stars Clinical Research program. The program was established thanks to a generous $1 million gift from Joe Clark, CEO of Aviation Partners, and longtime friend and associate of John L. Petersen, M.D. The goal of Rising Stars is to significantly increase the Institute’s cardiovascular clinical-research activities. It provides funding to select physician-researchers, allowing them to participate in and initiate innovative research projects while also maintaining active practices. “Participants will have an opportunity for designated time in the research environment,” says John L. Petersen II, M.D., director of cardiovascular research at the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute, and chief medical officer for the Seattle Science Foundation. “With this protected time, they’ll be more dedicated to pursue their research activities.” Rising Stars is conducted by Swedish’s Cardiovascular Research department, which considers factors including the overall benefit the research would provide to patients in selecting funding recipients. Solicitation of applications for the program’s support is currently underway, with the first round of Rising Stars to be selected in the near future. w w w. s w e d i s h f o u n d a t i o n . o r g 9 FEATURE Make an impact Thanks to generous support from the community, the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute is a nationally recognized leader in the diagnosis and treatment of the full spectrum of cardiovascular diseases.

In expanding its cardiovascularcare program, Swedish is building on a tradition of success: The medical center’s existing Heart & Vascular Institute operates the largest program of its kind in Western Washington, with more than 60 cardiovascular specialists — including cardiologists, surgeons, radiologists, anesthesiologists and vascular specialists — located at Swedish’s four campuses and at numerous Swedish cardiovascular clinics in the Pacific Northwest. The new Center will integrate the activities of all Swedish caregivers, as well as those of affiliated caregivers who treat chronic and acute heart failure — such as primary-care physicians, emergencydepartment staffs, nurses and nurse practitioners, home-care staffs, hospitalists, cardiologist and cardiovascular surgeons — at regional hospitals and clinics who treat heart failure. By overseeing all of a patient’s needs — including inpatient, outpatient and emergency care — Swedish hopes to improve outcomes for heartfailure patients, while also lowering costs by managing patients’ cases more effectively. Other goals for the Center include: – Reducing mortality and re-hospitalization rates for patients with acute heart failure by providing them with access to a full range of surgical, cardiologic and pharmacological treatments, including surgical implantation of ventricle-assist devices, a type of implanted mechanical pump. – Working closely with Swedish emergency-department teams to develop and implement the best practices for identifying and treating emergent cases of acute heart failure. This emphasis will include technology upgrades and procedural changes aimed at reducing the time needed to assess and treat critical cardiovascular patients upon arrival at the emergency department. – Developing an expanded heart-failure SHVI patient, Ron Herring, soothes the crowd at Bahama Breeze on a recent Saturday night. research program (see sidebar on page 9). – Facilitating access to heart-transplantation surgery at other regional centers, including assisting with qualification of potential recipients, donor matching and administration of waiting lists. In addition, the new Center will offer comprehensive heart failure related education designed to improve patients’ quality of life by encouraging them to become active partners in treating their disease. This education component will address many different lifestyle and health factors by incorporating pharmacists, social-service workers, psychologists, dieticians, weight-management specialists and sleep-disorder specialists, among other health-care professionals. It will also include a Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute-specific web site, developed and maintained to provide ready online access to materials related to heart failure. “Providing education — not only to patients, but to their families and to the greater community — is key,” says Dr. Lewis. “Patients and others need to have access to the great informationtechnology resources available, and to information that is coherent, intelligent and responsible. It should be a message they can read and reread after they talk to their doctors. This is one of the ways that doctors can continue to share in the education process.” A search is ongoing for a nationally prominent medical director to oversee the Comprehensive Heart Failure Center — an individual who will be integral in helping it take shape, implementing training programs for existing staff, and recruiting additional specialists and researchers. A new surgical director will also be added to the team, under whose leadership the Center will be able to deliver an expanded range of advanced surgical and invasive cardiology treatments. Other components of the Comprehensive Heart Failure Center are expected to include an enhanced cardiologic intensive-care unit for heart failure patients, a short-stay unit for patients, and coordination of training activities with the Seattle Science Foundation (SSF), an independent organization, located on Swedish’s Cherry Hill campus, that works closely with the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute on a number of activities. SSF’s state-of-the-art conferencing capabilities will be an important tool for both internal and external training activities, and will support the new Center as it becomes a key resource in improving heart failure care throughout the Pacific Northwest. Generous gifts that make a difference Of course, the Comprehensive Heart Failure Center wouldn’t be possible without the contributions of donors, including the John L. Locke Jr. Charitable Trust, which in May 2010 donated $1.5 million to the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute to support the creation of the Heart Failure Center. “The addition of a Comprehensive Heart Failure Center will help bring a full spectrum of cardiovascular care to our community,” says Lida Buckner, secretary of the John L. Locke Jr. Charitable Trust. “The Center is logical — a single place where all of the caregivers and resources will be focused on efficiently providing the full spectrum of heartfailure patients with the best-available treatments for their disease.” When the Center is completed, the heart-failure patients in our region will have a more-promising chance of receiving successful outcomes, such as Ron Herring’s. “I feel fabulous now — a thousand times better than I did five years ago,” says Herring. “I’m lucky to be alive, and it’s all thanks to the wonderful care I received.” i Jennifer Schaefer is a Seattle-based writer and editor.

Volunteers fill various roles, from serving on event committees, to procuring auction items for Celebrate Swedish, to passing out water to Swedish SummeRun participants. In this issue of IMPACT, we are proud to introduce you to one of our outstanding volunteers and Summit Club members, Gerda Wirz. Gerda, who was born in Switzerland, came to Seattle in 1958 with her husband, Jean-Pierre, when he accepted an engineering position at Boeing. Gerda and Jean-Pierre shared a passion for flying, and it was this passion that led her to purchase a flight school and an accompanying charter airplane business, Fancher Flyways. She later ran her own three-office travel agency and helped with her husband’s business ventures after he retired from Boeing. In the mid 1990’s Gerda and Jean-Pierre became Summit Club members at Swedish, in part because of the excellent care JeanPierre received here while being treated for cancer. Over the years, her growing appreciation for Swedish and its importance in people’s lives led her to become an active participant on several Foundation boards and committees, including the Women’s Advisory Board, the Summit Club Advisory Board, and the Celebrate Swedish gala Committee. She says her work for Swedish is a lot like her business activities, “although, it’s not a business at all — it’s personal.” It is that personal connection that makes Gerda so special to the Swedish Thankfully, volunteer Gerda Wirz has no plans to slow down; she’s a beloved part of the Foundation family. Foundation. “Gerda is not only a great volunteer but a wonderful person, and it has been a pleasure to work with her over the years,” says Gwen Colwell, gift clubs and annual giving manager. “She really cares about Swedish, and she works so hard to be sure that we are able to provide the highest quality of care we can to our patients.” In recognition of her outstanding contributions as a Swedish volunteer, Gerda was awarded the Elmer J. Nordstrom Distinguished Service Award in 2001. Jennifer Nolte, the Foundation’s stewardship manager, is especially grateful to Gerda for her willingness to gladly donate so much time and support to Swedish: “Gerda is a great resource. She has a busy and full life, but is somehow always ready and willing to reach out to us with ideas and energy.” At age 76, Gerda has no plans to slow down. She has many friends in the community and enjoys visiting with relatives in Switzerland, her two adult children and her grandson, with whom she speaks her native French and German. In the 20 years she has partnered with Swedish, her dedication and generosity have remained a constant. “I want to do this work so others can have a quality medical experience,” she says. “It’s a joy to do it.” And it’s a joy for us to know Gerda. Swedish thanks her — and all of our volunteers — for all that they do for us and for the patients and families we serve. i w w w. s w e d i s h f o u n d a t i o n . o r g 13 LEGACY Make an impact from the FOUNDATION McGinty estate gift improves cancer care Grateful patient loses his own battle, but leaves legacy for others. Your current or future gift will help Swedish continue to provide patients with the technology, equipment and resources needed to turn the latest medical research into outstanding patient care. If you would like more information on how to support Swedish Medical Center through your estate or a life income arrangement, please contact Lindsay Hopkins, planned giving manager, at (206) 386-2751 or visit www.swedishfoundation.org/ plannedgiving. Since the Swedish Cancer Institute (SCI) first opened its doors in 1932, it has worked to balance advanced technology and treatments with thoughtful, compassionate patient care — and generous community support plays a vital role. “Each gift, whether it’s $50, $5,000, or $50,000 has a profound impact on our programs and patients,” says Don Theophilus, executive director of Swedish Medical Center Foundation. “Many people give because their lives were somehow impacted The Swedish Cancer Institute has touched thousands of lives. by cancer and they want to assist future patients. That is philanthropy at its core.” A recent example of a grateful patient and a true philanthropist is Brian McGinty. Brian ultimately lost his fight against cancer, but during treatment he recognized how philanthropy could contribute to better care for all cancer patients. He was grateful to his team of doctors and nurses, and made provisions for SCI in his estate plans. “When Brian chose to make an estate gift to SCI, it was obvious that the care he received played an important role in his decision,” says Theophilus. “It is also a testament to Brian’s compassionate character. Brian recognized that community support is critical to changing outcomes for future patients, and that will be his legacy.” Swedish thanks its many generous donors, including Brian, for their investment in the future health of our community. i Unrestricted gifts fund critical needs at Swedish Departments apply for grants to aid patient care and support. E ach year, many generous donors from our community make unrestricted gifts to Swedish — those which are directed towards the “greatest need of the institution.” Through a program called Philanthropy at Work, departments at Swedish are invited to apply for a grant each spring and fall so that these unrestricted dollars are put back into direct patient care and support. Following are just a few examples of recently funded grants: • Patients suffering from delirium have been shown to have a mortality rate similar to patients with heart attacks. Research has shown that one of the ways delirium can be minimized is to have family members present who can comfort and re-orient patients to time and place, especially during the night when the condition often worsens. A grant to support a pilot project on delirium management has allowed the purchase of six portable, folding cots 14 I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011 for family members to stay the night with patients who need their support. • Due to Swedish’s expansion of freestanding emergency departments, there is an increasing need to recruit and retain A Philanthropy at Work grant will help recruit and retain highly skilled nurses in Swedish’s emergency rooms. highly skilled nurses. The Emergency Nursing Association authorized an e-learning course for both new and experienced ER nurses, and a grant requested by all emergency department managers (Mill Creek, Ballard, First Hill, Cherry Hill, Redmond and Issaquah) will enable their nurses participate in the education, ensuring our caregivers have the most up-to-date training and education. • The Swedish Central Seattle Clinic relies on ultrasound technology nearly every day, all at a huge and avoidable cost. Thanks to philanthropy, a small, portable ultrasound machine was purchased, giving patients access to many important services at a fraction of the price, while improving both the efficiency and quality of the care currently provided. Because Swedish is a nonprofit medical center, unrestricted contributions are instrumental in ensuring our ability to deliver world-class facilities, technology and care to our patients. For more information about how you can make a gift to Swedish, please contact the Foundation by visiting www.swedishfoundation.org or call (206) 386-2738. i 2010 was another extraordinary year for our Foundation, our fourth record-breaking year in a row for philanthropic support. Over the twelve months of Swedish’s centennial year, we received more than $19.7 million in gifts from donors who understand how important this great institution is to our community. This total — which includes over $350,000 from fundraising efforts at Swedish/Edmonds, the former Stevens Hospital in Edmonds which joined Swedish in September — represents a 12.9% increase over our 2009 total. Equally exciting was the fact that, at year’s end, we had raised over $70 million toward our $100 million, multi-year goal for the Campaign for Swedish. The credit for making 2010 such a banner year at Swedish Medical Center goes to you, our loyal and generous donors, volunteers, board members and friends. Each of us at the Foundation thanks you for your gifts of time and money, and for all that you do to make Swedish a better place. The following pages acknowledge this generosity, but the real legacy of your giving lies in the lives touched, the equipment, buildings and programs you have made possible, and in the part you play in continuing Swedish’s century-old tradition of providing world-class facilities to world-class caregivers whose skills will benefit future generations of patients and families in our community. Some of these donor-supported innovations at Swedish, including a new Comprehensive Heart Failure Center at the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute, and some of the donors, caregivers and leaders who have made them possible, are described in this issue of IMPACT. I hope, as you read about these accomplishments, you share the pride I feel in Swedish and in the donors, caregivers and leaders who contribute in so many ways to make this a great medical center. A new year has started, and new goals and challenges lie before us, including our continued efforts towards completing our $100 million Campaign. I am confident that, in the months and years ahead, your support for Swedish will remain as strong and as inspiring as it was last year. On behalf of everyone at the Foundation and all of the people who work at Swedish Medical Center, thank you once again for your continuing generosity and support. Sincerely, On the pages that follow, we gratefully acknowledge the thousands of corporate and individual donors who gave so generously to Swedish Medical Center in 2010. Thanks to each of you, we are able to continue the goal of making Swedish the leading health care delivery system in the region. Our heartfelt thanks to you, our partners.

Swedish Visiting Nurse Services Swedish Visiting Nurse Services (SVNS) provides care and comfort to people from all walks of life in a variety of circumstances, whether it involves assistance recovering from surgery or a medical ailment, help coping with a life limiting illness, or learning how to manage the aging process. SVNS relies on community partnerships to offer a broad range of services to home health and hospice patients, their families, and caregivers. Gifts to the Campaign for Swedish directed to SVNS provide care to those with no insurance; transitional support to those electing to receive hospice care; grief support groups and counseling for patients and their families; as well as comfort therapies, including massage and music, to relieve patients’ pain and anxiety. “We would not be able to serve the community as broadly and effectively as we do without the support from donors,” says Jon Younger, M.D., medical director of SVNS. Tribute, memorial and estate gifts are particularly meaningful because they are typically made in gratitude for care received. A recent gift from the estate of JoAnn Anderson, for example, has allowed SVNS to plan for the provision of remote care technology by physicians and staff. Remote care is an effective way for patients to give needed information to providers on a daily basis without the patient having to go to the hospital or other facilities. “We are so appreciative when people make gifts to SVNS,” Dr. Younger says. “Not only does it show that we have done our job in providing patient-centered care, but these gifts allow us to provide care and comfort for future patients and their families.” 20 I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011 Dr. P.

Employees support 2010 Swedish Fund Drive Hundreds of employees joined together for the 2010 Swedish Fund Drive, raising over $310,000 to support programs and select projects around Swedish. CEO Rod Hochman, M.D., was inspired by the success of the Fund Drive: “Employee giving is a great way to show the community how much our own staff believes in our mission, especially as we celebrate a century of service to the community, and the public launch of the Campaign for Swedish. It is truly an honor to work with so many talented and generous employees.” Swedish employees also give back in a variety of ways outside the Fund Drive — from forming fundraising teams and participating in the Swedish SummeRun, to volunteering at the Celebrate Swedish gala, Swedish Medical Center Foundation would like to thank all Swedish employees for their generous and dedicated support in 2010. 24 I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011 Mr. and Mrs. Larry Gohl Mr. and Mrs. Robert Goldberg Mr. Khodayar Golshan Mr. and Mrs. Jack C.

(Brad) Perkins Barbara Perlmutter Bert Perry Joshua Pesek Kathy Petersen Eric Bensussen (event co-chair), Joe White and Craig, Eddie and Rod Fisher at the 2010 Fisher Family & Friends Auction. Annual Fisher auction and golf events set records for Rivkin Center The 2010 Fisher Family & Friends Auction & Golf Invitational, lead by auction co-chairs Eric and Gloria Bensussen, and golf event co-chairs Craig and Rod Fisher, set a new record by raising a combined total of over $1.1 million for the Marsha Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research. Golfers enjoyed spectacular weather in a “Ryder’s Cup” style tournament on August 15th at the Redmond Ridge Golf Club. Barrier Motors offered a “hole-in-one” prize opportunity to win a new Mercedes Benz or Audi, and Outback Steakhouse provided a fantastic meal following the tournament. On November 5th, over 500 guests attended the dinner and auction event at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue. A variety of prizes were presented to bidders, including Super Bowl XLV tickets, a trip to New York Fashion Week, tickets to the PGA Masters Tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club, and a walk-on role in the 5th Avenue production of Guys and Dolls. The evening also paid special tribute to two remarkable ovarian cancer survivors and recipients of the 2010 Courage for Life Award: Cynthia “C.J.” Taylor, founder and former executive director of the Puget Sound Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure; and Nicole Urban, M.D., worldrenowned ovarian cancer researcher at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. “We cannot thank everyone enough for their incredible passion and commitment to the Rivkin Center. We hope that each of the participants share in our excitement and take pride in these record-breaking accomplishments,” say auction co-chairs Eric and Gloria Bensussen. A special thank you to generous lead sponsors, including BDA, Kaye-Smith, Lytle Enterprises, MCM, and Seattle Sun Tan. w w w. s w e d i s h f o u n d a t i o n . o r g 27 Randy Peterson Joe Phelan Deborah R.
