FALL 2015 - OSF HealthCare
FALL 2015
OUR BABY-FRIENDLY JOURNEY CONTINUES
Since the last publication of Healthy for Life, the Birthing Center has made great
strides in implementing the new guidelines and requirements to become designated
as a Baby-Friendly hospital. Becoming a Baby-Friendly hospital will show our
commitment to doing what is best for our patients. With a renewed focus on the
importance of breastfeeding and keeping babies close to their moms, OSF St. Joseph
Medical Center has adopted a new culture and approach to the neonatal process.
One of the biggest changes in the process is the location where the babies receive their
newborn screenings. In the past, babies were taken to the nursery, away from their
mothers, to be examined. Now the pediatricians visit mom and baby in their own room.
Changing the approach of newborn screenings better includes the parents and provides
the least amount of stress possible on the babies by allowing them to “room in” with
their moms. Parents now get as much time as possible with their infant to learn their
newborn’s patterns before going home. “This better facilitates the parents’ transition
to home by empowering them and providing the resources they need to care for their
infant both during their stay and after discharge,” said Amanda Goff, Lactation
Consultant at OSF St. Joseph. “Parents need the opportunity to learn their infant’s cues.
Not separating baby and parents allows them to learn those cues quicker and become
more confident in caring for their infant by the time they go home.” To help support the
initiative of “rooming in,” OSF St. Joseph Foundation generously granted the Birthing
Center funds to purchase the equipment needed by pediatricians in every room.

HEALTHY FOR LIFE!
Other benefits of increasing the time moms and babies
have together while in the hospital include an increased milk
production for mom and being able to better identify early
feeding cues. The Baby-Friendly emphasis on breastfeeding
comes from evidence-based research showing multiple benefits
for the baby and new mom. The babies benefit from breastfeeding
as the milk helps their digestive system mature and work
properly. It also helps to decrease the risk for certain types of
infections and illnesses, obesity, allergies, and food sensitivities.
Both mom and baby benefit from the special bond created by
the frequent skin contact. Some of the mother’s health benefits
include a decreased risk of multiple types of cancers, diabetes,
anemia, and osteoporosis.
Support and encouragement for exclusive breastfeeding
continues throughout the entire stay at the hospital. Birthing
Center nurses and Lactation Consultants received training on
the new guidelines for our smallest patients. Should the baby
need to return to the hospital for any reason, other departments
have also been educated on Baby-Friendly procedures. “As a
hospital, we are always trying to better serve our patients.
Becoming designated as Baby-Friendly will allow us to continue
to raise the bar and standard of care we can provide,” said
Sarah Musselman, Lactation Consultant at OSF St. Joseph.
OSF St. Joseph Medical Center is on schedule to become an
accredited Baby-Friendly hospital by the fall of 2016.

The end of the 2014-2015 school year
marked two years since OSF St. Joseph
Medical Center sponsored the funding
for Oakland Elementary and Benjamin
Elementary Schools to implement
Project Fit America (PFA) at their
respective schools. As part of the grant
given by OSF St. Joseph Medical Center
and OSF Foundation, Oakland Elementary
and Benjamin Elementary Schools received
new outdoor and indoor equipment,
teacher training sessions, and lesson plans
and resources for physical education (PE)
classes. Taking a proactive stand against
childhood obesity, PFA works to teach
lifelong fitness skills that encourage healthy
living and an active lifestyle at an early age.

EXPANDING EDUCATION TO THE PL AYGROUND:
PROJECT FIT AMERIC A
Jo Myers, PE teacher at Benjamin
Elementary, said, “Project Fit America
has been a very positive addition to our
existing curriculum. Our students are
motivated by the lessons and the
challenges this program offers. It is exciting
to watch the students set goals, work to
attain them, and then take such pride in
themselves when these goals are met.”
Students are motivated
by the lessons and the challenges
this program offers.
The enhanced curriculum includes preand post-fitness tests over the course of
two years. After the first year, Project Fit
America helped create substantial
improvements in cardiovascular fitness,
muscular strength, and endurance scores.
The final two-year results are still being
compiled, but we anticipate phenomenal
further improvements.
PE teacher at Oakland Elementary,
Bethany Romer, said, “Project Fit America
really motivated my students to work
hard. When we implemented it into our
curriculum, we had 100 percent
participation! It was amazing to watch
the students who struggled with
enjoying PE and didn’t want to
participate, find something they were
good at and something they enjoyed.”
Fellow PE teacher, Todd Delveaux, said,
“Students have set goals for themselves.
It has aided in the growth and self-esteem
of many of our students here at Benjamin
Elementary.”
Due to the success of the program at Oakland and Benjamin,
OSF St. Joseph Medical Center is excited to announce we will
be donating approximately $30,000 worth of equipment,
installation, and curriculum enhancement through Project Fit
America to both Stevenson Elementary and Prairieland
Elementary schools for Fall 2016.
“I am excited for the self-motivation opportunities Project Fit
America has created to inspire students to reach new fitness
goals. The activities in the curriculum guide look like they are fun
ways to encourage kids to keep moving,” said Jill Garneau, PE
teacher at Prairieland Elementary.
OSF St. Joseph and the OSF Foundation autonomously raised
the combined grant of nearly $60,000. “OSF St. Joseph Medical
Center and OSF Foundation sponsor and support many strategic
health and wellness initiatives within our community,” said Greg
Cook, chair of the foundation board. “One of the initiatives I am
very fond of is the focus on the health and well-being of our
children in schools. I am proud to support Project Fit America.”
PROJECT FIT AMERICA
Project Fit America (PFA) is a non-profit organization
for elementary and middle schools to help create and
foster healthy fitness education programs. With a goal
to reverse the lack of fitness in youth, PFA approaches
regular exercise with a whole body approach by
addressing aspects such as self-esteem, understanding
the body, and developing key character traits like
leadership and teamwork. Their mission is to “get kids
fit and to create programs that assure every child will
find something at which they are good at and to
inspire them to participate in more fitness activities.
We create the opportunity for all kids, not just the
already gifted athletes, to discover, explore, improve,
and be recognized for their physical, mental, and
fitness efforts and performance.”

MAKING THE
INCONVENIENT
A LIT TLE MORE
CONVENIENT
Not very many people get sick when it is convenient – if there
even is such a thing. Between work, school, kids, and everything
else going on, it is hard to schedule time to go to the doctor.
With 24/7 online access to medical care, OSF OnCall can make
the inconvenience of an illness a little easier to manage. Patients
throughout Illinois can access care whenever they need it, with
only a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
As a virtual urgent care, OSF OnCall connects patients with
virtual providers. It utilizes the latest technology in video
conferencing medical professionals and has a variety of benefits:
no appointment is required, minimal wait time, no travel time,
and patients can use the pharmacy of their choice. Patients are
usually seen by a provider in 30 minutes or less and the cost is
only $35 per session.

and enter brief details
about your condition
and health history.
No travel, no waiting
rooms, 24/7 access.
Kaleena Conrad of Galva, a mom of two
who works as a middle school teacher,
used OSF OnCall when she noticed a rash
on her two-year-old daughter, Grace. She
decided it was too late in the evening to
go to the nearest PromptCare, which is
about 50 minutes away, so she requested
an online doctor visit at OSFOnCall.org.
Within 20 minutes she was connected
to a provider and discussing the possible
causes of the rash.
“The doctor was very thorough and truly
listened to my concerns about my child,”
she said, noting the doctor from the
online visit called her by telephone five
days later to inquire about her daughter’s
condition. “Overall, it was a great
experience and gave me peace of mind
in an uncertain situation,” Kaleena said.
“I would definitely use it again.”
Virtual urgent care is appropriate for
patients with urgent, but not serious,
health conditions such as sinusitis,
bladder infections, pink eye, cough or
bronchitis, bug bites or stings, and colds
and flu. The provider can help determine
if an injury or illness requires an in-person
visit or not. If the medical issue is unable
to be treated over a call, the doctor will
let you know within a few minutes and
you will not be charged for the session.
A provider will call within
15-30 minutes via:
• Facetime
• Skype
• Telephone
• Video chat
Your virtual visit will
last about 20 minutes.
Telemedicine can be the right option for seeking health care
when you do not have time to schedule a traditional doctor
appointment. Amy Dooley realized this benefit recently when
she had a stuffy nose and head, ear ache, painful cough, and
needed her inhaler more than usual. She knew she needed to
go to a doctor, but was not sure if she could take time away
from work. Amy decided to call OSF OnCall.
About 15 minutes after placing the request, she was talking to
a provider and was diagnosed with a sinus infection. The doctor
also prescribed an antibiotic, which was called in to a pharmacy
just blocks from her home. The exam took about 18 minutes,
and Amy did not have to leave home – or even change out of
her pajamas. She received an email summary of the visit, with
instructions for follow-up care with her primary care physician if
the symptoms persisted. About four days later, she was back to
feeling 100 percent again.
“This is so convenient for working mothers, and saved me
from having to schedule time away from work,” said Amy.
“When you think about travel time to the clinic, time spent in
the waiting room, and even time spent waiting for a
prescription at a pharmacy, it adds up.”
Virtual providers can prescribe medication if clinically
appropriate; however, prescription refills and ongoing care are
to stay with your primary care physician (PCP) or specialist.
Virtual urgent care provides a quick, affordable alternative to the
traditional in-person clinic visit. OSF OnCall can be utilized 24
hours a day, 365 days a year, from almost any location in Illinois.

go to osfhealthcare.org/on-call.
Prescriptions, if
needed, are sent to
your pharmacy.

will be sent to your

LISTENING TO YOU
Have you ever filled out a company
survey and wondered if anyone looked at
your comments? At OSF HealthCare, not
only do we read your comments, but we
take action because of them. OSF Listens
is a recently launched online patient panel
for current and non-OSF patients alike to
give valuable input on issues that matter.
“OSF Listens allows us to receive valuable
input from patients and the community.
It gives a voice to our patients and
allows them to be included in the
decision process,” said Vickie Parry,
Marketing Coordinator for OSF HealthCare.
The online surveys are categorized by topic and can range from
two to 20 questions depending on the subject. Participants
can expect to receive one to two surveys per month and can
customize the experience. They can answer the interesting and
relevant surveys, while declining the rest.
Once the results are compiled, we let participants know how
their input impacted our decisions. Not only will they see the
results, but will know how they helped positively shape
OSF HealthCare for the future.
We make decisions with our patients in mind. Survey results
from the community will allow us to provide even more tailored
services. OSF Listens offers an easy way to increase
communication between patients and OSF HealthCare.
The more active panelists we have to participate, the better
representation of our community it will provide. If you would

BIG AND LOUD:
FIGHTING BACK IN THE JOURNEY
THROUGH PARKINSON’S
OSF St. Joseph Medical Center was first introduced to the Lee
Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) BIG® and LSVT LOUD® therapy
program when Occupational Therapist, Erica Miller, enrolled in
the course earlier this year.
The evidence-based treatment protocols are intended to help
adults with Parkinson’s disease as well as children and adults
with other neurological conditions. LSVT BIG is a program
designed to help initiate and control movement, while the goal
of LSVT LOUD is to improve communication through the use of
a louder voice.
I was so impressed with
LSVT BIG because of the emphasis
on functional movement.
“I was so impressed with LSVT BIG because of the emphasis on
functional movement. This program is based on improving
performance of daily tasks within a structured format. After
seeing the effects of LSVT BIG on a patient’s movement,
confidence, and overall quality of life, I was determined to bring
the program to OSF Rehabilitation Services,” said Erica.
These two programs utilize three different rehabilitation
specialists: speech pathologists, occupational therapists (OT),
and physical therapists (PT). The speech pathologist works with
patients in the LSVT LOUD program, while occupational and
physical therapists join forces in the LSVT BIG treatment.
The LSVT LOUD program involves the use of vocal exercises and
techniques so individuals can monitor and control the volume
of their voices. “This program is not about yelling. It is about
improving control and communication,” Sara Schramm, Speech
Pathologist at OSF Rehabilitation Services.
Both programs follow a rigorous
month-long schedule, where patients
meet with their therapists four days a
week for four weeks. Each session is an
hour long and includes daily homework
practice assignments.
Patients must receive a physician referral
in order to participate in the program.
Once the referral is obtained, there will
be an individual evaluation with
rehabilitation specialists to determine
if either or both of the programs are
appropriate. Prospective patients can
personalize the program’s objectives
into more individualized goals.
OSF Rehabilitation Services currently
has five certified specialists: one speech
pathologist, two occupational therapists,
and two physical therapists. They began
offering these services in July of this year.
OSF Saint Francis Medical Center began
providing these programs more than
three years ago.
If you are interested in
learning more about the
LSVT BIG and LSVT LOUD
therapy programs, please call
OSF Rehabilitation Services
at (309) 662-3311 ext. 4477.
The goal of the LSVT BIG program is for patients to use bigger
movements in everyday living. LSVT BIG exercises also work both
the upper and lower body to increase functional mobility.
It focuses on intensive, amplitude-based exercises for the limb
motor systems in Parkinson’s patients.

GROWING THE COMMUNIT Y
WITH A GARDEN
For the second year in a row, OSF St. Joseph Medical Center is actively helping
to solve local health-related issues by growing a garden. The Community Health
Needs Assessment (CHNA), conducted in 2013, determined Bloomington-Normal
residents needed more access to nutritious fruits and vegetables. In direct response
to those results, OSF St. Joseph made seven raised garden beds and planted a
variety of vegetables.
12 | Healthy for Life
In 2014, in a collaborative effort from
OSF St. Joseph employees and the
community, we were able to donate
371 pounds of produce to the local fullservice homeless shelter, Home Sweet
Home Ministries. They have been
providing “food, shelter, and hope to
the hungry, homeless, and hurting”
since 1917. The 400 or more people
Home Sweet Home serves every day
now have easier access to organic and
locally-grown vegetables.
“OSF St. Joseph works hard to provide the
best care we can give our patients. Now
with this garden we are able to expand
our reach and continue to help make
healthy living an accessible, high priority,”
said Erin Kennedy, Director of the Center
for Healthy Lifestyles at OSF St. Joseph
Medical Center.
Bread for Life is a co-op within Home
Sweet Home which encourages those in
need to provide for themselves and their
families by giving their time or money in
exchange for the food they receive. Many
Bread for Life members help with the
detail work in the OSF St. Joseph garden
as they regularly come to help weed and
water the vegetables. OSF St. Joseph
employees from various departments have
also rallied around this cause. From food
service to engineering, and from business
development to occupational health, they
have helped the Center for Healthy
Lifestyles nurture the plants into fruition.
In 2014, OSF St. Joseph donated
371 pounds of produce to
Home Sweet Home Ministries.
As we work to give back to the community, other citizens and
organizations are generously supporting and pushing the cause
as well. “The help we have received within our community has
made a major impact in the success of our garden,” said Erin.
“The Normal Rotary Club has kindly donated $500 to put towards
the planting season of 2016. We will be able to add three more
garden beds and increase the selection of produce we can grow.”
This year the garden has grown radishes, jalapeño peppers,
tomatoes, green beans, and green bell peppers. Later in the
planting season, we will plant zucchini and spinach, as the final
harvest will occur towards the end of October. As of this
publication, we have donated over 275 pounds of produce
to Home Sweet Home.
Our motto to serve with the greatest care and love extends
our efforts beyond the hospital walls. We are proud of the
community we serve and are continuously looking for ways to
give back as a not-for-profit hospital.
If you too would like to help serve our community and want
to learn more about how you can help with the garden,
volunteers and employees can stop by the Center for Healthy
Lifestyles and talk with director Erin Kennedy.
Even though the saying tells us age is mind over matter,
it becomes harder to stay fit as we get older. After years of
adventures, injuries, and maybe a few surgeries, working out is
a different game than it used to be. Warm-ups and cool-downs
consume more of the workout than it did 30 years ago while
training is tailored for less impact or to avoid old injuries. These
new parameters can be intimidating, but they do not have to be
with the right knowledge and direction.
STAY FIT AT ANY AGE
In March, OSF St. Joseph Medical Center and Four Seasons
Health Club partnered to provide patients with better access
to physical activity through a program called Fit Together.
This collaboration allows OSF Medical Group patients who
are 65 years or older the opportunity to join an exclusive Four
Seasons senior fitness program. “Regular exercise has a myriad
of benefits at any age, but specifically it can also help improve
quality of life and independence as a patient gets older,” said
Erin Kennedy, Director of the Center for Healthy Lifestyles at
OSF St. Joseph Medical Center. “We created a program and
partnership between fitness professionals and physicians to
maximize healthy living and work to prevent age-related
health issues.”
Members of this program will gain
full access to both locations and all
the amenities provided. Not only will
participants meet with a fitness
professional, they will also be able to
utilize the facility during all business
hours. With over 140 group exercise
classes, a pool, cardio machines, and
weight equipment, there is something
for everyone. “I am involved in the water
aerobics, ‘strength and balance’ classes,
walking, and the various health seminars
they offer,” said Ren.
Patients can talk to their physician about Fit Together and
receive a referral. Once the referral is made and the patient
starts a membership at Four Seasons, the collaboration between
the two facilities begins. The patient will meet with a fitness
professional at Four Seasons to receive training and guidance,
while having the benefit of physician endorsement. “Our goal
is to get Fit Together members familiarized with the club, get
them started on a suitable workout on an individual basis, and
help them create a routine that leads to a healthy lifestyle,” said
Jill Usiak, Senior Program Specialist at Four Seasons Health Club.
Membership rates are reduced to
$20/month in the Fit Together program
with a $35/month membership for the
participant and their spouse.
If you are a patient of OSF Medical Group
and are interested in learning more
about the Fit Together Program, please
contact the Center for Healthy Lifestyles
at (309) 661-5151 or Jill Usiak at
(309) 661-8611 ext. 259.
About a month after joining the Fit Together program, member
Ren Cochran said, “I have already seen an improvement in my
overall health: more energy, losing inches, and just feeling better
about myself.”
