Your gifts make a difference every day.
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your heartfelt generosity to St. John Providence Health System. Your gifts truly help us improve
the health and enhance the lives of thousands of patients and families in the communities we serve.
As you peruse this annual report, you will see the many ways you support our mission – your donations
genuinely make a difference every day. From purchasing an iPad with special communication software
for stroke patients to acquiring the most sophisticated scanning technology for neurological patients
or providing life-changing surgery for disadvantaged children, we rely on your generous gifts.
Every year we are humbled by the amazing generosity exhibited by a number of devoted individuals and
organizations. In 2011, we were blessed to receive several extraordinary contributions:
•The Blatt and Soave families gave a combined total of $1.5 million to build a new Endoscopy department.
•Raj and Padma Vattikuti donated $1 million to purchase a new da Vinci® Si Surgical System and create
the Providence-Vattikuti Women’s Robotic Institute.
Susan E. Burns
•The W. K. Kellogg Foundation provided a grant of $1.2 million to implement a comprehensive
breastfeeding program for area women and babies.
•Gretchen Valade funded a Bone & Joint Gym for physical rehabilitation patients.
•The Sheas established a generous planned gift for the OB/GYN program.
•The Nicholson family made a leadership gift to seed an endowed fund for oncology in Joan Gehrke’s name.
•Alexander Nick designated a $1 million estate gift to purchase cutting-edge technology and upgrade
facilities.
While we salute our leadership donors, every contribution, no matter the size, is important to our ability to
provide the highest quality experience to every person in need of our care. We are grateful to have received
nearly 40,000 gifts totaling more than $15 million in 2011. The donor recognition listing in this report and the
donor walls at our hospitals reflect our gratitude for your collective support and the positive impact you are
making in the community. It is our hope that, by furthering our mission through the care we provide
every day, we honor the intention of your gifts.

Devoted physician inspires philanthropic
giving among colleagues and family
Bal K. Gupta, MD, has made philanthropy and volunteerism a way of life.
Proud to be among the first members of St. John Providence Health System’s
(SJPHS) new Leadership Circle for generous donors, he hopes to encourage
more physicians and associates to support patient care services.
For many years, Dr. Gupta, Chief of Behavioral Health Medicine Services
at St. John Macomb-Oakland Hospital (SJMOH), has been a loyal donor
to SJPHS. He helped raise $400,000 toward Emergency department
renovations completed in 2005 at SJMOH and inspired several of his
physician colleagues to join him in the fundraising efforts. In 2011, he
became a member of the Leadership Circle, which recognizes donors who
contribute $2,000 or more annually to SJPHS.
Giving back reflects on the family values of Dr. Gupta.

Since arriving in the United States from India in 1972, Dr. Gupta’s
philanthropic endeavors have set an example for his family and colleagues.
Providence becomes part of worldwide robotic surgery institute
A $1 million donation from the Vattikuti Foundation has enabled
Providence Hospital to acquire a new da Vinci® Si Surgical System and
create the Providence-Vattikuti Women’s Robotic Surgery Institute.
“We have a bold vision for significantly growing
robotic surgery at Providence Hospital, Southfield,
This new partnership with Vattikuti builds on Providence’s reputation
as a leader in gynecological robotic surgery and positions the
Providence-Vattikuti Women’s Robotic Surgery Institute as an integral
part of the worldwide Vattikuti Foundation’s Robotic Surgery Institute.
The institute is a group of centers of excellence dedicated to state-ofthe-art robotic surgery and innovation through collaboration with its
global network of multispecialty institutes that share best practices.
Since acquiring the hospital’s first da Vinci system in 2007, Providence
has been the regional market leader in gynecologic robotic procedures.
and expanding it to Providence Park Hospital
in Novi,” Dr. Gavini says. “Our partnership with
the Vattikuti Foundation is the first step
toward making this a reality.”
Use of this technology is becoming the standard of care for patients
needing gynecologic surgery and has enhanced patient outcomes.
The number of surgeries at Providence has grown each year and the
new robotic equipment will help Providence meet the increased demand.
“Acquiring the new da Vinci and becoming part of the Vattikuti
Foundation’s Robotic Surgery Institute sets Providence Hospital and
St. John Providence Health apart from any health system in the region
for gynecological robotic surgery,” says Dr. Lakshmi Gavini, MD,
Providence Chief of Gynecology, Gynecological Robotics and Minimally
Invasive Surgery. “We are extremely grateful to the Vattikuti Foundation
for its generosity and the opportunity to become a partner in this elite
group of robotic surgery centers.

Vice President, St. John Providence Health System.
“I came to the United States with no money, just my education,” he
says. “Since then, I’ve been very blessed in my career. When you give
back, good things happen to you in life.”
Over the years, Dr. Gupta has also made donations to Detroit Country
Day School and the Bharatiya Temple of Metropolitan Detroit. Through
the Michigan Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (MAPI), he raised
funds to create free medical clinics for uninsured Detroit residents. He has
also raised money to open schools for underprivileged children in remote
Indian villages. In 2005, the Greater Detroit Chapter of the Association of
Fundraising Professionals honored Dr. Gupta as a Distinguished Volunteer
during its National Philanthropy Day Awards Celebration.
Dr. Gupta says he learned the value of charitable work from his parents.
“My father didn’t attend school beyond the fourth grade,” Dr. Gupta
says. “He worked in wholesale textile manufacturing. My family wasn’t
wealthy, but my father placed a high value on giving back. He believed
“We have a bold vision for significantly growing robotic surgery at
Providence Hospital, Southfield, and expanding it to Providence Park
Hospital in Novi,” Dr. Gavini says. “Our partnership with the Vattikuti
Foundation is the first step toward making this a reality.”
that everyone is entitled to an education; women should be respected in
society; and mental health services should be available to people who need
it. When my father died [in 2000], I honored his beliefs by donating funds
to open a women’s computer education center in India.”
Like his father, Dr. Gupta instilled charitable values in his children. His oldest
daughter Anjum has volunteered with a number of African missions. His son
Chirag has helped the Salvation Army collect Christmas presents for needy
children. And his youngest daughter Sarika mentors children facing
adversity as a volunteer with a Pittsburgh-area nonprofit organization.
Dr. Gupta’s wife Madhu is an active volunteer with Bharatiya Temple and
the Foundation of MAPI.
“Philanthropy is very rewarding, but I don’t do it to get a pat on the back,”
Dr. Gupta says. “I want to do what I can to help the community. I try to
share that philosophy with my fellow St. John Providence physicians.
We’re part of the community and when we support projects like the
Emergency department renovations, everyone is rewarded.”

Ensuring Our Future
Parents’ passion inspires planned gift
Debra Shea recalls a few important phone calls that interrupted family
holidays over the years.
“Murray loved delivering babies
and taking care of women,” Debra
says of her father, Murray Klimchuk,
MD, who was an attending OB/GYN
physician at St. John Hospital and
Medical Center (SJH&MC) for more
than 20 years. “He never minded
getting a call about a patient who
was ready to deliver. We always
laughed about it – everybody wants
a Christmas or New Year’s baby.”
you can’t have healthy babies without healthy mothers. St. John serves
many young women who need assistance.”
Debra recalls seeing dozens of baby photos on the walls of her father’s office that
he and his medical partners helped deliver.
“Murray absolutely loved his profession,”
she says. “He worked in many different
areas while he was doing rotations as a
resident. After delivering his first baby, he
knew he had found his passion. Later, he
developed many close relationships with
students and residents who remained
lifelong friends.”
While Murray was passionate

“Mother helped in every way she could,” Debra says. “She had a very
calming presence. One time she held a little girl’s hand and took her
mind off her injury by talking about her pretty red fingernail polish.”
Murray passed away from pancreatic cancer in 1983; Pattie passed
away from lung cancer in 2009. Touched by the compassionate care her
mother received at St. John, Debra requested that memorial donations
benefit the oncology nurses. Later, when Debra and her husband
William began discussing beneficiaries for their estate plan, they created
an endowment honoring the Klimchuks. The Pattie R. and Murray
M. Klimchuk, MD, Endowment Fund will benefit the OB/GYN program
at SJH&MC, supporting equipment purchases and educational needs.
“My husband and I really wanted to make a tribute to my parents in an
area they loved,” Debra says. “The gift isn’t restricted to baby care but
also caring for expectant mothers. That’s an important part of the cycle –
The common family bond is SJH&MC, says Debra, who has been a
Fontbonne member for more than 20 years.
“When my mother was ill, many people came to the Van Elslander Cancer
Center to see her,” Debra says. “Many were friends from her time at
St. John. Some of those relationships went back 25 years or more. The
St. John family has always been very close. And her care was tremendous.
The oncology nurses and hospice care staff made her very comfortable.”
In addition to paying tribute to her parents and supporting the OB/GYN
program, Debra says she hopes her estate gift will encourage others to give.
“I loved my parents so much. This is the way I wanted to honor them
for their hard work and support of St. John,” she says. “My hope is that
families will be inspired to consider a gift to St. John to honor their parents
or a loved one.”

Cancer Care
Advanced, multidisciplinary care gives cancer patient
another chance at life
As a relatively healthy woman, Mary Billups didn’t think much about the
occasional minor stomach pain she experienced last summer. But when
her husband told her one morning that her complexion looked yellow,
she knew something wasn’t right.
Mary’s primary care physician
referred her to the Van Elslander
Cancer Center at St. John Hospital and
Medical Center. After some tests and
a biopsy, Richard Berri, MD, Director
of Surgical Oncology, told Mary she
had ampullary cancer, which affects
the area near the pancreas and small
intestines.
“The Whipple procedure involves removing the head of the pancreas, first
portion of the small intestine, gallbladder, part of the bile duct, a portion
of the stomach and the surrounding lymph nodes,” Dr. Berri says. “The
procedure should only be performed
at a specialized center that has
experienced surgeons and advanced services to care for the patients in the operating room and during recovery.”
Dr. Berri notes that the six-hour
procedure went perfectly, as did Mary’s recovery. After a seven-day hospital stay, she had four cycles of chemotherapy
as a preventive measure.
“Cancer was the last thing I expected,” says Mary, a 74-year-old Grosse
Pointe Woods resident. “I thought of
my family. We have 10 grandchildren.
I was afraid that I wouldn’t be here to
see them grow up.”
A multidisciplinary team of nationally
recognized cancer specialists at the
Van Elslander Cancer Center reviewed
Mary’s case history and prior treatment. After discussing treatment
options, they recommended a
potentially life-saving protocol based
on their cross-disciplinary expertise.
“All the doctors, nurses and support
staff at the Van Elslander Cancer
Center are super nice,” Mary says.
“Dr. Berri came to see me three times a day while I was in recovery. He even called me the first night I came home
to make sure I was okay. The level of
care was excellent.”
Mary Billups is grateful for the expert care she received
from Dr. Richard Berri, who performed extensive surgery.
“We have groups of physicians with expertise in certain types of cancer,”
Dr. Berri says. “When patients see me, they also see our multidisciplinary
cancer specialists during the same visit to expedite care. Then we have
a series of meetings to discuss patient cases and make group decisions
about the best approach for treatment. We also keep compassionate care
in mind – we know that facing cancer is a trying experience for patients
and their families. The multidisciplinary team approach is the only way
to offer the very best cancer care.”
Within two weeks of her initial diagnosis, Mary underwent a Whipple
procedure, one of the most complex abdominal surgeries done in any
medical discipline. Only 20 surgeons in the world are trained to perform
this procedure.
Dr. Berri says post-surgical care is
just as important as the surgical
procedure itself.
“We do all we can to deliver the best quality care, from diagnosis to recovery,”
he says. “We have a special oncology
floor with private rooms just for our cancer patients. Our nurses are very
familiar with each patient’s case and particular issues. I’m there at least
twice each day to see my patients. It’s our way of creating a great
experience for our patients and their families.”
Mary continues to visit the Van Elslander Cancer Center for follow-up
care. All of her scans have come back clear and she’s cancer-free.
“I feel better than ever and have resumed my activities,” Mary
says. “I’m so grateful the Van Elslander Cancer Center is located
close to home. The doctors, nurses and support staff were wonderful.
I’d recommend their care and services to anyone.”
Endowed fund honors longtime volunteer and supports cancer services
The Joan Gehrke Endowed Fund in Oncology was established at St. John
Hospital and Medical Center (SJH&MC) in 2011 to carry on Joan’s legacy
of service to the hospital and provide future support for Oncology
Services to enhance care for cancer patients.
To honor Joan in a lasting way, her longtime friend and colleague at
PVS Chemicals, Inc., Jim Nicholson and his family made a generous
leadership gift of $500,000 to establish the fund. More than 100 donors
have supported the endowment, including Robert and Victoria Liggett,
Gene and Jeanne LoVasco, and Lisa Vallee-Smith and Jeffrey Smith, who
established generous planned gifts for the fund. To date, more than
$1.32 million has been raised for the endowment.
Under the direction of Ayad Al-Katib, MD, Medical Director, East Region
Oncology Services, the Joan Gehrke Endowed Fund will support new
research initiatives, physician education
opportunities and additional program specialty
areas for Oncology.
For more than 30 years, Joan volunteered her time,
talent and expertise to help ensure SJH&MC has
the advancements needed to provide excellent
health care. Her volunteerism began with the
Fontbonne Auxiliary and evolved into many
Joan Gehrke
leadership roles to raise funds for the hospital.
Joan was the first chair of the current St. John
Health Foundation Board; she helped recruit
members and led efforts to raise more than $57 million for SJH&MC.
Joan ended her six-year term as board chair last summer but continues
to serve as a trustee.

Neuroscience Care
DeRoy Fund helps Craniofacial Institute change children’s lives
In his small village in the Philippines, people called 8-year-old Blase Pepe

16-year-old Mary Grace Joseph because of her facial skeletal defect.
during the 2010 medical mission and performed surgery on her at the
Southern Philippines Medical Center.
“We were only in the Philippines
for a short time and didn’t have the
chance to offer follow-up care,”
Dr. Hnatiuk says. “During the
procedure, we put in bone grafts to
cover her skeletal abnormality, but
she later had a significant residual
deformity due to a complication.”
Both children suffered from severe
facial developmental abnormalities.
Mary Grace’s facial malformation
affected her vision and impacted her
interaction with others; consequently,
she became withdrawn and isolated.
Blase was unable to open his mouth
– he ate by pushing small pieces of
food through a tiny opening near his
cheek. As a result, Blase was severely
malnourished.
After returning to the U.S., Oscar
received a call from the hospital in
the Philippines with an update on
Mary Grace’s condition.
In a poor environment with limited
access to appropriate medical care, both
children faced a bleak future. But thanks
to the DeRoy Pediatric Craniofacial
Fund and the work of Providence Park
Hospital’s Craniofacial Institute, Blase
and Mary Grace are now living happy
and healthy lives.
“We wanted to make sure she
healed well without future
complications,” Dr. Hnatiuk says.
“We felt that her surgical outcome
would be vastly superior in the U.S.
We prepared a proposal to bring
her to the Craniofacial Institute for
the necessary surgery to correct her
condition.”
The Craniofacial Institute team became
connected to the children through
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist
Oscar Ong at Providence Park Hospital.
Oscar also runs Operation Care Abroad,
a charitable medical mission group that
provides surgical and medical care to
the people of the Philippines, Oscar’s
native country.
Shortly afterward, Oscar received a
call from the Philippines about Blase.
Holding his “pillow pet” tightly, Blase Pepe shares a

Spinal and joint replacement surgery patients benefit from gift
Inpatient physical rehabilitation patients at St. John Hospital and Medical
Center (SJH&MC) will benefit from a new Bone & Joint Gym, Education
Center and Day Spa thanks to a $500,000 donation by Gretchen Valade,
who made the gift in memory of her dear friend Michael C. Burke.
Those who have had spinal or joint replacement surgery will now have
an optimum rehabilitation environment to assist them with physical
therapy before discharge. The new gym will feature state-of-the-art
equipment for therapy clinics and a car simulator to teach patients
the proper body mechanics of entering/exiting a vehicle post-surgery.
To better prepare patients for their surgery, the Education Center will
offer classes – taught by patient care staff, pharmacy, social work,
therapy and home care personnel – to patients and their at-home
“coaches.” In addition, the Day Spa will provide an atmosphere of
renewal, holistic healing and wellness for patients with amenities
such as massage therapy, manicures and hairstyling.

Mrs. Valade has supported the hospital with
several generous gifts over the years. Most
recently, she contributed $3 million for the
Cardiovascular Hybrid Operating Room and
$2 million for a da Vinci® Si Surgical System.
An avid philanthropist devoted to several
Detroit causes, Mrs. Valade is chair of Carhartt,
CEO of Mack Avenue Records, chair of the
board for the Detroit Jazz Festival, and owner
of the Dirty Dog Jazz Café and Morning Glory

many patients,” Mrs. Valade says. “St. John

patients who have no chance of a normal productive life. It has transformed
the lives of pediatric patients across the globe, from China and Guatemala
to Zaire and India. The multidisciplinary team of physicians who provided
care belongs to the St. John Providence Health System Physicians Who
Care program, which enables specialists to serve patients at no cost.
Dr. Hnatiuk and his surgical team successfully performed a five-hour surgery
on Mary Grace in August 2011. She and her father stayed with Oscar at his
home during their three-month U.S. visit. Mary Grace had no further
complications. Now, she’s back at school in the Philippines and forming
close relationships with her siblings and other children.
“Because of you, my life has changed,” Mary Grace wrote in a letter to
the Providence Health Foundation. “You have given me new hope and
served as my inspiration to keep fighting. You are all good people
because you have helped me with the kindest of hearts. You are all
gifts from heaven to me.”
In October, Dr. Hnatiuk along with Russell Faust, MD, PhD, Pediatric
Oncologist, and Anthony Kasper, DDS, Oral Surgical Specialist, performed
a successful 12-hour procedure on Blase.
“It was a complicated case,” Dr. Hnatiuk says. “We did bone and soft
tissue work to free up his jaws and made incisions to release his fused
gums. Then, we discovered that his tongue was fused to the top of his
mouth and he had a wide cleft palate. I reconstructed his jaw using
a bone graft made from a portion of two ribs. Blase had an amazing
recovery with no complications.”
Blase and his mother also stayed with Oscar during their three-month
U.S. visit. Oscar says Blase made a remarkable transformation during
his recovery.
St. John Providence Health System is
acquiring two BodyTom™ CT scanners
this year, making Providence Hospital
and St. John Hospital and Medical
Center (SJH&MC) among the world’s
first hospitals to have this intraoperative,
32-slice scanner for surgical treatment
of patients with neurological and spinal
disorders.
The purchase of the technology for
Longtime supporter
SJH&MC was made possible by Alexander
Al Nick
Nick, who bequeathed a $1 million estate
gift to the hospital. Before his death last
year, Al was an active, longtime supporter of SJH&MC. He was a
lifetime member of the St. John Guild and served in each officer
role. He was a hospital trustee for 12 years and sat on the Finance
Committee. Philanthropic support from Radhakrishnan Gurusamy
and Genga Ramamoorthy, Alan and Helen Ross, and Ann and David
Conrad assisted with the BodyTom purchase for Providence;
additional donors are still being sought.
The first scanner of its kind, the BodyTom allows imaging to be
performed in the operating room, reducing the need to transport
patients to and from Radiology. High-quality images of bone, soft
tissue and pathologies (i.e., tumors) are acquired in the exact
operative position and used for critical decision making during
surgery. The 85cm opening is one of the largest available on
CT scanners. The groundbreaking technology will be used primarily
in one operating room at each hospital although it is portable.
With the combination of rapid scan time, flexible settings and
immediate image viewing available in the OR, the BodyTom
allows advanced intraoperative imaging of the brain and spine,
giving physicians the ability to perform more complex procedures.
Two-dimensional, three-dimensional and multi-planar reconstructed
viewing options are available.
The ability to perform a scan during surgery or prior to closing the
surgical site will save valuable time and provide for greater accuracy
during surgery, resulting in greater patient safety. BodyTom images
can verify placement of hardware, help assess complications like
bleeding, and allow physicians to see tumors better than they can
by sight alone.
“Before the surgery, he could only speak through his eyes and facial
expressions,” Oscar says. “Afterward, he became an ultra-confident little
boy. It was wonderful to see him eat with a spoon for the first time in
his life. His mother was so happy to see her son eat normally. Now, he
has hope for the future.”
Dr. Hnatiuk says the care both children received would not have been
possible without the support of the DeRoy Fund.
“We can only do so much during our mission work – we really push the
limits,” Dr. Hnatiuk says. “I feel a responsibility to share my abilities as
a physician with children who need care. But doctors aren’t always
available where they’re needed most. We’re very grateful to the DeRoy
Fund for helping us provide the critical care these children wouldn’t
otherwise receive.”

Heart & Vascular Care
Hybrid OR offers heart patients safer options
for complex procedures
When John Wooton learned last October that his breathing problems
were caused by a heart condition, he knew exactly who he wanted to
see for treatment: the heart care specialists at St. John Hospital and
Medical Center (SJH&MC).
“Doctors initially thought I might
have COPD (chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease),” says John,
84, a retired dentist from St. Clair
Shores. “But when my lungs
checked out okay, they suspected
a heart problem. I had heart
bypass surgery at St. John Hospital
in 2001. The care I received then
was excellent and couldn’t have
been handled better. I wanted to
see the same cardiologist to get
this issue resolved.”
Traditional surgical options came with increased risk of heart attack or
stroke. But we had another option.”
Dr. LaLonde, along with the heart and
vascular team, proposed a novel
solution: a combined surgical and
percutaneous (through the skin via
catheter) procedure to repair both issues
at the same time. Unique procedures
like these for high-risk cardiac patients
are made possible by SJH&MC’s
Gretchen C. Valade Hybrid Cardiovascular Operating Room and Minimally
Invasive Structural Heart Program.
The Hybrid OR, which opened in
June 2011, is the nucleus of the
newly developed Structural Heart
Program, which is named after

Fontbonne fundraiser helps young heart patients
Proceeds from the 2011 White Christmas Ball, the Fontbonne Auxiliary’s signature event,
will be used to purchase a digital echocardiography reporting system for the St. John
Hospital and Medical Center (SJH&MC) Pediatric and Cardiology departments.
With the new system, physicians will be able to review real-time reports from anywhere
in St. John Providence Health System, enabling them to more efficiently treat and
diagnose cardiovascular disease in infants, children and adolescents.
The new technology includes software for delivering high-quality imaging capabilities
as well as pull-down menus and macros, reducing the chances for report transcription
errors. In addition to the clinical benefits, the new digital system will be invaluable for
teaching residents and medical students, and offer opportunities for student research.
Since 1947, the Fontbonne has donated millions of dollars to SJH&MC. For more

Dr. Daniel Rito listens to a young patient’s heart.
Family foundation supports
advanced cardiology care
The Hybrid OR has high-tech equipment for surgeons and
cardiologists to work together on patient care (above and
top right).
“With the Hybrid OR, there was no need to place Mr. Wooton at increased
risk by performing two separate surgeries,” Dr. LaLonde says. “It allows us
to perform complex procedures in a safe manner. This unique environment
brings together the expertise of heart surgeons and cardiologists to create
a multidisciplinary heart and vascular team. We collaborate to improve
outcomes for our patients.”
In December during back-to-back procedures in the Hybrid OR, Thomas
Davis, MD, Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab, inserted a stent
to reopen John’s carotid artery, and Sanjay Batra, MD, Chief of
Cardiovascular Surgery, repaired the mitral valve.
“The stenting was done through a catheter under
light sedation,” Dr. LaLonde says. “The mitral valve
was then repaired through open heart surgery.
Because of the improved flow to the brain and
shortened anesthesia time for the open heart
procedure, we significantly decreased the risk of
stroke or heart attack. We also saved time by
performing both procedures at the same time.”
John recovered from the procedures with no
Dr. LaLonde
complications – and even lost 30 pounds after
entering a cardiac rehab program. He remains active and played many
rounds of golf over the winter in St. Petersburg, Fla. He still sees Dr. LaLonde
regularly for heart checkups.
“The hybrid procedure worked out wonderfully,” John says. “I appreciated
having to go through only one surgical prep and procedure. The end result
is that I’m still here, and that wouldn’t be the case without Dr. LaLonde,
the heart team and the excellent care I received at St. John Hospital.”
St. John Hospital and Medical Center (SJH&MC) is a national leader
in cardiovascular care. One of the prime factors for this status is the
W. Warren Shelden Heart and Circulatory Center.
The center, which opened in 2008, provides a full spectrum of
services for the diagnosis and treatment of heart and vascular disease.
Specialists in cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, neurosurgery and
radiology offer a cross-functional approach to patient care, combining
innovative treatment techniques, comprehensive treatment programs
and compassionate care.
The Warren Shelden family and the Elizabeth Allan and Warren
Shelden Foundation helped establish the Heart and Circulatory Center
by making a generous $5.1 million gift in 2005. The contribution also
helped launch a $156 million hospital expansion project, which has
helped position SJH&MC among the best facilities in the nation.
Since making the initial gift, the Shelden family and foundation have
continued to generously support cardiology care at SJH&MC, donating
annual gifts to fund technology purchases and expand services to
improve the health of patients across the region.
“Our family is very grateful for the opportunity to support the superb
cardiovascular care available at St. John,” says Bill Shelden. “There
is a great community need for this type of comprehensive care.
We hope our contributions will foster continued advancements in
the prevention and treatment of heart and vascular disease.”
The Shelden center is just one component of St. John Providence
Health System’s (SJPHS) renowned Heart and Vascular Center of
Excellence, which also encompasses top heart care at Providence
Heart Institute and St. John Macomb-Oakland Hospital. SJPHS is the
market share leader for cardiac care in southeast Michigan and one
of the few health systems in the state that offers Cardiology Specialty
Clinics to treat hard-to-manage chronic cardiac conditions. For more

is not true.”
Other barriers to breastfeeding include
physical discomfort when done improperly, insufficient milk supply and poor
weight gain in the infant.
The Kellogg Foundation awarded
a $1.2 million grant last summer
to implement the St. John Mother
Nurture Project, a comprehensive
breastfeeding program providing
direct health services and community-based programming. It includes
developing best practices and
working to achieve the state’s first
“Baby-Friendly” designation for
SJH&MC. Paula Schreck, MD, Medical Director, Breastfeeding Medicine,
SJH&MC, hopes the St. John Mother
Nurture Project becomes a model
for other hospitals and communities
in the Detroit area, the state and
beyond.
The Mother Nurture Project works
in tandem with SJH&MC’s Outpatient
Breastfeeding Clinic, which was launched
in 2008.
“Breastfeeding issues can be hard to
sort out during a pediatric appointment
because they’re time-consuming,”
Dr. Schreck says. “At our Outpatient
Breastfeeding Clinic, physicians and lactation consultants can observe an entire

90 percent of breastfeeding issues.”

Infant Mortality Program helps
babies live and thrive
The Infant Mortality Program (IMP) recently celebrated 25 years of
providing services to the community to help lower the high number of
infant deaths in the Detroit area. The IMP was founded with a vision
implemented by the communities of women religious, including the
Daughters of Charity and Sisters of St. Joseph, who sponsored Catholic
health care institutions in Michigan a quarter century ago. Their mutual
compassion for the sanctity of life brought them together to respond to
an infant mortality crisis in Detroit, which ranked second in the nation.
St. John Providence Health System (SJPHS) is one of IMP’s founding
health care institutions and continues to sponsor the program, which
also relies on philanthropic donations. Last fall, SJPHS was a beneficiary
of a charity event presented by Art Van Furniture and chose to allocate
proceeds to the Infant Mortality Program.
The IMP provides comprehensive services to reduce the high mortality
rate of infants born to at-risk women in Detroit and surrounding areas.
It empowers families to help themselves by making a connection with
mothers, fathers and other family members to help build and sustain
families, reverse the high infant mortality rate, promote literacy and
increase access to health care. Services include:
Parent-Infant-Partner (PIP) – trains volunteers to act as advocates
and mentors for high-risk pregnant women to provide emotional support
before, during and after pregnancy.
Read Write Now – provides one-on-one education counseling for
clients.
Jubilee Parenting Support Group – offers parenting classes, peer
support, community services, literacy, health promotion and domestic
violence education.
Since the IMP’s inception, more than 1,700 babies have been born to
participants, with five infant deaths – a significant improvement in saving
newborn lives. In 2011, the IMP was recognized as one of 10 programs
in the nation for achieving community impact, innovation, collaboration
and best practices while serving as a model for other programs.

Donors delight in “Big Easy”
festivities to support at-risk infants
The aisles of the Art Van Furniture store in Warren were magnificently
transformed into the streets of New Orleans for a glamorous event
supporting at-risk infants in Detroit and surrounding communities.
More than 600 attendees enjoyed Cajun cuisine, soulful jazz and
lively entertainment on Oct. 20 during “A Night of Charity in the
Big Easy,” presented by Art Van Furniture and hosted by Art Van
Elslander, a leading philanthropist and longtime supporter of
St. John Providence Health System.
As one of the beneficiaries of the event, St. John Providence Health
System received more than $90,000 for the Infant Mortality Program,
which offers comprehensive services designed to reduce the high
infant mortality rate in Detroit and Wayne County. These outreach
services promote literacy, assist with health care access, provide
parenting classes and train volunteers to mentor high-risk mothers.
Upon arrival, guests entered a glitzy night club atmosphere
featuring cocktails and a sultry performance by internationally
renowned vocalist Cyrille Aimeé. After video presentations from
beneficiaries and remarks by Mr. Van Elslander, guests enjoyed “Life
is a Cabaret,” a comedic theatrical act. The evening also featured
swing dancing to the gypsy-jazz sounds of the Hot Club of Detroit.

at starting a healthy life.

Open Arms program offers grief support to children and families
Lisa Blackwell will never forget May 29, 2009. That’s the day her father was
killed during a random shooting at a Detroit gas station. He was just 53.
domestic violence. Others have lost classmates in car accidents. It’s traumatic
for young people to go through these kinds of losses.
“My father was a very kind, loving man,”
says Lisa, a mother of four children ages
7 to 13. “He always helped my kids with
their homework, took them out on weekends and attended their soccer games.
He took my girls to their daddy-daughter
school dances. When he watched my
nephew play youth football games, he’d
wear face paint in the team colors.”
“Our program opens the door to mental health
services these children wouldn’t otherwise
have,” Karen notes. “We couldn’t do it without
the support of the community, teachers, St. John
Providence Health System and philanthropic
donors. Our services are free to families, so we
rely on donations to help sustain the program.”
Open Arms serves families across metro Detroit
and features five program components:
•Grief support groups
•School-based grief support groups
•Homicide survivor support groups and individual grief therapy
•Camp “Good Grief,” a summer day camp that helps grieving children engage in
fun activities
•Trauma Response Team
The death took its toll on Blackwell’s family,
especially the children. Her 7-year-old son
called his grandfather’s phone repeatedly
and couldn’t understand why he didn’t
answer. The children became terrified of
gas stations and lost interest in school.
Her 12-year-old daughter – a straight-A
student – suddenly began failing classes.
Homicide, domestic violence and other
traumatic events have a ripple effect upon
families. Grieving the loss of a loved one is
never easy, but families don’t need to face
it alone. The St. John Providence Health
System Open Arms program helps families
like the Blackwells learn healthy ways to
cope with sadness, anger and frustration,
and return to their daily activities.
“Open Arms provides support to children
ages 3 to 17 and their family members,”
says Karen Gray-Sheffield, Corporate
Director, St. John Providence Community
Health. “Many of these children have
witnessed the death of a loved one or
Trained therapists and volunteer group
facilitators work closely with children to help
them identify the feelings surrounding their loss
and develop positive coping skills. The children

helps parents understand the grief their children
are experiencing.
Children participating in Open Arms create a
mask representing their feelings.
Children go in and out of grief,” Karen says. Often, they go into denial and suppress
their emotions. Later, a trigger event like a graduation, birthday or holiday can resurrect those feelings.”
Hospice team provides kindhearted care
When the St. John Providence Hospice team cares for adult and pediatric
patients with life-limiting illnesses, they do more than provide comprehensive
pain management and symptom control services. The dedicated and
compassionate team members regularly perform heartfelt acts that meet
the special needs of patients and families.
Last summer, an adult patient in his early 40s was diagnosed with terminal
cancer. The Hospice team learned that he had always wanted to visit the
Caribbean Islands. Unfortunately, his condition made travel impossible,
so the Hospice team brought the islands to him. The team worked with the
patient’s wife to put on a special Caribbean-themed party at his home,
complete with a steel drum band. The patient and his wife were thrilled.
The Caribbean party is just one example of the many thoughtful acts that
Hospice staff members perform regularly, says Cindy Lucido, BSN, RN,
Manager, St. John Providence Hospice.

“Our Hospice associates don’t go out of their way to promote their actions,
they just do them,” Cindy says. “They’re not in it for recognition. They
routinely ask what more we can do for every patient and family we serve.
It’s a gift to know that we can make a big impact on a patient. It’s rewarding
and spiritual work.”
Now in its 14th year, St. John Providence Hospice has touched the lives of
more than 16,000 patients. During fiscal year 2011, the program served more
than 2,300 patients and families in the tri-county area as well as in St. Clair,
Livingston and Washtenaw counties. Services are available 24 hours a day,
seven days a week in the patient’s home or residence. Since the program also
cares for patients and families not covered by insurance, it relies on donations
to sustain services.
The Hospice program is family focused and includes physicians, nurses, social
workers, spiritual counselors, home health aides, trained volunteers and allied
therapists. These interdisciplinary teams work closely with patients and
families to meet their physical, psychosocial and spiritual needs.
“We get to know our patients and families very well,” Cindy says. “We’re
blessed to be invited into the patient’s home at such a vulnerable time.
We’re aware of the amount of time the patient has left and we help them
make the most of it through kind, empathetic care.”
Pediatric Hospice Volunteer Mike Godfrey is particularly skilled at caring for
children who are unable to interact or communicate. Recently, he visited the
home of a terminally ill 8-year-old boy to provide respite services for his
parents. Mike brought his guitar along and played for the little boy, whose
Physician giving impacts local
and global medical initiatives
Physicians of Providence and Providence Park Hospitals continued
to demonstrate their personal commitment to improving health
and enhancing the lives of patients through their charitable giving
in 2011.
Providence physicians of the Caduceus Society made a generous
grant of $15,000 to the Art Van “A Night of Charity in the Big Easy”
event to benefit the Infant Mortality Program sponsored by St. John
Providence Health System. The program provides comprehensive
services aimed at reducing the high infant mortality rate in
southeast Michigan.
Open Arms Therapist Phyllis Kearney (standing) engages
the Blackwell family in a game to help them with their
feelings of grief.
Without counseling, children experiencing prolonged grief can engage in
high-risk behavior such as drug abuse, teen pregnancy or crime.
“We see the struggles families are going though, but we also see resiliency
in these young people when they have hope for the future,” Karen says.
“Open Arms provides the support system to help them walk through their
challenges. We’re changing lives and opening doors to greater opportunities. It’s difficult work but very rewarding.”
Lisa learned about Open Arms from the Detroit Police Department. She
and her husband brought their children to grief support group sessions for
four months. Now, the children are performing well in school and able to
manage their feelings.
“The program is outstanding,” Lisa says. “My children had abundant
opportunities to express their grief. And the therapists were always
available whenever we needed them. My children, husband and I learned
coping skills. We learned there are no steps to the grieving process. It’s
okay to feel happy on some days and sad on others, but we must always
remember that the person we lost is still in our hearts.”
The Caduceus Society was created in 1994 by Providence
physicians to increase their philanthropic giving in support of health
care programs that serve the community. Each physician member
makes a personal commitment of philanthropic support to the
Providence Health Foundation. The total gifts make up an endowed
fund, which yields annual interest that is granted out to support
needs at Providence and Providence Park Hospitals. Physicians in the
society also have the option to direct their gifts to a specific hospital
program or need.
Since its inception, the society has given more than $800,000 to
support projects such as critical care nursing education, end-of-life
education for physicians, the development of a hospital research
lab, and an infant car seat program, which provided car seats to
new parents departing the hospital with newborns. In addition
to the Infant Mortality Program grant, the society also provided a
$9,000 grant to the Summer Biomedical Research Program in 2011.
The grant enabled high school and college students to learn about
medicine and biomedical research through lectures and laboratory
experiences.
face lit up with every song. The parents were very grateful for the
joy Godfrey brought to their son that afternoon.
“Hospice isn’t just a job, it’s a calling,” says Hospice Care Case
Manager Karen Dombrow, RN. “I can’t tell you the number of times
our team members have gone out of their way to make sure our
patients are comfortable, remain independent and maintain quality
of life.”
Karen recalls one patient in her 60s with terminal breast cancer
who had a lifelong desire to play the violin. She didn’t own a violin
and wasn’t able to take lessons, but that didn’t stop the Hospice
Care team from helping to fulfill her wish.
“We put the word out, hoping that someone on our team might
have a violin we could borrow,” Karen says. “Sure enough, one of
our volunteer coordinators had one and worked with our nursing
staff to get it to the patient. She really enjoyed tinkering with it
and we took several pictures of her with the violin to share with
her family. These kinds of selfless acts really make a difference in
our patients’ lives.”
Members of the close-knit, dedicated Hospice team gather for a meeting.

Volunteer Support
Diverse community events support St. John River District Hospital
From basketball to card games, residents of the East China community
have come up with entertaining ways to support St. John River District
Hospital (SJRDH).
For the past four years, Marine
City and St. Clair high schools have
leveraged their basketball rivalry to
raise funds for cancer care at SJRDH.
Each January, the East China School
District holds its “Pink Halo Project,”
which pits teams from the two rival
schools in a day-long tournament.
The event showcases boys’ and girls’
teams from the 9th grade, junior
varsity and varsity levels and draws
hundreds of fans and supporters.
The players wear jerseys adorned in
pink and play with a pink and white
basketball to show support for breast
cancer research.
“This partnership between sister
schools brings our community
together for a common cause,”
says Jeff Cook, Assistant Principal
and Athletic Director at St. Clair High
School. “We support St. John River
District Hospital because it serves
people from both communities.”
The district divides funds from ticket sales, sponsorships and general
donations between SJRDH and the Basketball Coaches Association of
Michigan “Coaches Against
Cancer” project. The district
has donated nearly $15,000
to SJRDH since the event began.
The hospital will use funds from
the 2012 event to support
infusion center renovations.
“The event is more than a game,”
Cook says. “When you donate a
portion of the funds for services
within your community, it creates a greater appreciation for
places like St. John River District
Hospital. The students, parents,
administrators and community
members take pride in knowing
their donations make a difference
for cancer patients in our area.”
Marine City and St. Clair high school basketball players
donned jerseys adorned in pink for the Pink Halo Project
basketball tournament supporting SJRDH.
Providence Park League meets needs large and small
The Providence Park League (PPL) is a service and fundraising volunteer group with the motto “Caring
for People by People who Care.” During 2011, the PPL contributed $65,000 toward its $1.5 million pledge
for the creation of Providence Park Hospital.
Recognizing that filling smaller needs can also have a large impact, the PPL board approved 10 grants
between $200 and $900 for items requested by various hospital departments. Among these items is an
iPad loaded with special software for the Speech and Language department. The device enables better
communication for stroke patients overcoming speech challenges. Grant funds also allowed Spiritual Care
to purchase grief booklets for family members who have lost a loved one. Another grant funded enhanced
parking lot signage to help guide Providence Park Hospital visitors.
“The Providence Park League is pleased to take an active role in obtaining
meaningful equipment, supplies and services to help our patients and
associates,” says PPL President Dennis Yanachik. “We look forward
to offering these grants on an annual basis.”
The PPL also provided $5,000 in scholarships for teen volunteers in 2011.
More than 550 adult and teen volunteers generously donated nearly 60,000
hours of service to Providence Park Hospital this past year.

Volunteer groups support
SJH&MC with annual fundraisers
From children to seniors, patients at St. John Hospital and Medical
Center (SJH&MC) are benefitting from the fundraising efforts of
the St. John Guild and Fontbonne Auxiliary. For more than 60 years,
the groups have donated millions of dollars to the hospital to fund
equipment, technology and services to improve health and enhance
lives in the community.
Participants in the Bridge Marathon played cards to benefit
St. John River District Hospital.
For the past 30 years, up to 20 pairs of women have participated in the
“Bridge Marathon.” The players make donations to enter the tournament,
which begins in January. Participants take turns hosting bridge games
every week and keep cumulative scores. The marathon concludes in early
May with a special luncheon and tournament at SJRDH.
“The Bridge Marathon is a great way to have fun while donating money
to a valuable community resource,” says Mary Lou Stockwell of Marine City,
who has played in the tournament for the past 10 years.
Most recently, Bridge Marathon funds have supported the purchase of a
new CT (computerized tomography) scanner, an advanced imaging device
that can provide cross-sectional images of the body. Physicians often use the
scanner to take three-dimensional images of patients with internal injuries.
“We are blessed to have an active and supportive community that cares
about our hospital and has created fun ways of engaging others in the
spirit of support,” says Frank Poma, President of SJRDH. “Our community
is unique, and I speak on behalf of all of our physicians and associates
when I say we feel privileged to be the recipient of such efforts.”
In 2011, the Guild raised $123,000 from its 51st Annual Guild Dinner
attended by more than 1,000 people who were entertained by
John Pinette, comedian, movie and television personality. The Guild
contributed an additional $12,000 from The Guild Coffee Shop at
St. John Hospital. Total proceeds of $135,000 supported the stateof-the-art Cracchiolo Inpatient Physical Rehabilitation Center, which
opened in 2010 to provide enhanced services for patients.
Another successful fundraising effort was the St. John Medical Staff/
Guild Golf Outing, which continues to grow each year. The 6th annual
event, held in September, raised more than $35,000 for SJH&MC.
In 2011, the Fontbonne Auxiliary donated a total of $346,428 to
the hospital from the proceeds of its increasingly popular Girls Night
Out event, the annual White Christmas Ball, as well as proceeds
from Le Fontbonne Gift Shoppe at St. John Hospital. These funds
benefitted Cardiology, Oncology, Pediatrics and Women’s Health
services at SJH&MC.

Donor societies offer personal
services to loyal supporters

The McQuade Society at St. John Hospital and Medical
Center and the Providence Society (established in memory
of Thomas P. Moore II) at Providence and Providence Park
Hospitals were created to recognize loyal friends and
benefactors and the key role they have in supporting our
hospitals. Members are among an exclusive group of
committed supporters with lifetime giving of $25,000
or more. These individuals are able to use the society’s
complimentary donor relations services that are designed
to ensure complete satisfaction when using St. John
Providence Health System hospitals. McQuade Society
and Providence Society members are recognized
throughout the year at various hospital events and in
Foundation publications. To learn more about the donor
societies, please call 313-343-7480.
