here is a good chance Jeffrey
Grover’s passion for deep sea
diving was influenced by his father,
David. As a young man during the
‘40s and ‘50s, the senior Grover was a
hard-hat diving and salvage officer for the
Navy. Jeffrey became a scuba diver, who
appreciated the mysteries of Stillwater
Cove.
It was that mutual interest in the sea that
sparked a family plan to honor Jeffrey,
who passed away in 2008.
Jeffrey, who lived on the Monterey
Peninsula with his wife, Wendy, was a
civil and mechanical engineer. His work
frequently involved litigation, ultimately leading him to law school. Just weeks
after he passed the California Bar Exam,
Jeffrey was diagnosed with colon cancer.
He was 48.
“Jeffrey was very healthy and athletic
all his life,” says his father, “but his last
years were very difficult for him. The odds

n
were against him; he was at stage IV
when diagnosed. They told him he had
no more than a year or two to live, but
he battled the cancer for six more years
before his death. He was 54 when he
died — too young. This was one of
those great tragedies. I had colon cancer
at about the same time, but mine was
diagnosed early, and I’ve been
cancer-free ever since.”

t nearly the midpoint of the year, we are reflecting
on our past and looking to the future. Last year, we set an
aggressive fundraising goal of $10 million and then reached
further, to a stretch-goal of $11 million. Our efforts and those of
our generous donors exceeded that goal, yielding $11.4 million
in 2014. Our recently released annual report spotlights all
of you who made that happen, but we also wanted to express
our gratitude here and now.
As I approach my 10th anniversary with Community Hospital
this year, I am reflecting on the amazing opportunity I have had
to be part of and witness the largesse of our donors on behalf
of the hospital and its patient community.
While I mark my own milestone, a much bigger one is worthy
of celebration: This year, our Auxiliary commemorates its
60th anniversary as an organization dedicated to supporting
Community Hospital. During that span, members have logged
more than 4 million volunteer hours and raised $6.9 million
for hospital programs, services, and equipment. The funds have
been generated by selling thousands of items in the gift shop,
serving countless cups of coffee, snacks, and meals in the
Fountain Court Café, and through dues and donations.
The Auxiliary members — nearly 500 adults and college and
high school students — are part of the fabric of the hospital.
They are a hallmark of our high level of service and we
encourage each of you, when you see Auxiliary members
in their familiar red jackets or gold polo shirts, to thank them
for all they do.
We are very grateful to be a hospital owned by such
stakeholders, who understand who we are, what we represent,
and the programs and level of care we offer. And we trust in your
support to help us continue to provide such services.
With gratitude,

Community Contribution
A conversation with Community
Hospital Trustee Fred O’Such
Fred O’Such grew up in a small industrial
town in New Jersey, about 50 miles
south of New York City, where only about
5 percent of his high school class went
to college. Although his father did not
finish high school, O’Such’s parents
made sure all four of their sons graduated
from college.
After receiving his chemical engineering
degree from Lehigh University in 1958
and working for a year at DuPont, O’Such
joined the Air Force as an officer. He was
eventually put in charge of one of the
largest computer centers in Pennsylvania,
giving him his first real taste of leadership
as well as an introduction to the potential
impact of computers. During this time, he
married Joanne, his college sweetheart.
As his military service was ending, O’Such
decided to test whether a self-described
“small-town kid” could compete in the
industrial world and applied to Harvard
Business School. He received his master’s
degree in business administration with
high distinction in 1963 and started
his industrial career. After a stint with
a New Jersey company, O’Such was
offered an opportunity in 1970 to join a
young environmentally focused company
in Menlo Park, Envirotech Corporation,
to build its instruments and controls
business.
Fred, Joanne, and their two children, then
ages 6 and 4, moved to the West Coast
on a great adventure. Ten years later,
he led a management buyout of certain
Envirotech businesses and formed Xertex
Corporation.
What brought you to the
Monterey Peninsula?
Our two children had both graduated
from college and I had sold the company
for which I was CEO to Emerson Electric.
My wife and I were looking for new
experiences, so we bought a weekend
house to remodel in Carmel-by-the-Sea.
Some of the individuals we met quickly
became new friends and our experiences
exceeded our expectations, so we elected
to move to Carmel as full-time residents
in 1998. It didn’t take me long to become
involved with our community. My first
area of interest was as a founder of
a nonprofit organization, which now
runs Sunset Center in Carmel, established
during the renovation of the center. I’ve
met a lot of wonderful people through
such interests.
How did you come to know
Community Hospital?
Fortunately, I did not become acquainted
with the hospital as a result of a medical
emergency. One of my closest friends
during the last 35 years, Frank Amato,
served on the Community Hospital Board
of Trustees for eight years, three as its
chairman. He took the time to introduce
me to the CHOMP leadership team,
a most impressive group. So, when the
offer to join the board was extended,
I enthusiastically accepted.
This hospital is one of the essential
elements of being able to age gracefully
while living in our home. It is one of the
features that distinguishes the Carmel area
from others we might have considered.
There is confidence in knowing we have
a first-class hospital we can reach in
10 minutes. It’s a crucial element in a
healthy community and the key to quality
of life for seniors in our community.
Although I am still on a steep learning
curve about the world of healthcare, it
really captures my interest. And it’s nice
to find that Dr. Steve Packer has done
such a great job training his team;
he has a couple of thousand very nice,
very skilled people working there.
What is the most rewarding
part of your experience with
Community Hospital?
Most rewarding clearly has been the
chance to meet and interact with
the strong board Dr. Packer has been
able to attract, as well as the top-notch
leadership team he has built. Dr. Packer’s
style of “managing by walking around”
is impressive. He is easily accessible, and
willingly shares his breadth of knowledge

Enduring Devotion
Endowed funds ensure commitment to caring continues
P
acific Grove resident Parnell A.
“Rick” Rickerson was well known
for his involvement in community
affairs and his appreciation for the
life he lived on the Peninsula — as well
as a smile that could light up a room.
One way Rickerson expressed his
gratitude was through planned giving,
providing bequests to Community
Hospital to create two endowments in
thanks for the care and concern he
received in his later years. One endowment honors radiation oncologist
Dr. Bradley Tamler and benefits the
Comprehensive Cancer Center. The other
honors cardiologist Dr. Michael Galloway
and benefits programs and services of
Tyler Heart Institute. Throughout his career, marriage, and
life, he was devoted to family, to friends,
and to his country. He believed in paying
it forward and in giving back. After
45 years of marriage, he lost his wife to
a peaceful passing in 2005; he followed
her in 2013. Before he died, Rickerson
ensured his culture of kindness and
generosity would continue through his
planned giving.
of which was dedicated to the
development of the Maurine Church
Coburn School of Nursing at Monterey
Peninsula College. Nearly 40 years later,
her vision and her generosity continue
to have a major impact on the health
of this community.
Endowed funds require that the
principal of the gift remain intact.
The income earned from interest and
investments can be used annually,
creating ongoing and lasting impacts.
Despite his passing, Parnell Rickerson,
like Maurine Church Coburn, will long
be remembered and appreciated for
the continuing benefits of his endowed
funds, the services they will support, and
the patients whose lives will be touched.
Rickerson’s gifts are among the latest in
a long tradition by people who want to
ensure the hospital’s future for those
who come after them. Among the best
known is Maurine Church Coburn, who
leveraged her character, her creativity,
and her capital to advance causes close
to her heart.
Rickerson ensured his culture of kindness
and generosity would continue
In his youth, the dashing young man
with a wink and a ready laugh fell in love
with Gladys, an international opera singer.
They married in Miami, where he was
stationed in 1960 at Homestead Air Force
Base. A pilot who flew missions during
the Vietnam War and lived to tell about it,
Rickerson ultimately retired at the rank
of major after 20 years active service.
Then, he pursued a master of science
degree and became a civilian employee
of the Army.
While plans for a new hospital atop
Carmel Hill were under development,
Coburn was serving on the Board of
Trustees, becoming a pivotal player in
the interior design of the hospital and
the integration of art and music into
the healing environment. She also held
the nursing profession in high regard
and voiced her concern about a shortage
of skilled and registered nurses. Upon
her passing in 1977, a charitable trust
was established in her name, much

with all of us. We have an outstanding
person guiding us through an uncertain
period, as huge changes are occurring
in healthcare. Dr. Packer brings his
leadership team into the board meetings, creating an opportunity for us
to understand what’s on their minds
as well as his. I really like his leadership
style; he can go down several levels
in the organization and knows who
everyone is, and they know they can
talk with him. We have good dialogue
at the board level, too; it truly is one
of the most effective organizations I’ve
ever been involved with.
What are some of your other
interests?
Education sets the course. I continue
to have a strong interest in trying to
bring about constructive change in our
nation’s K-12 public education system.
On a worldwide basis, our 15-year-olds
rank behind 23 other countries in math.
That shortfall needs to be corrected for
us to compete globally in the future.
About 15 years ago, a group of my
Harvard business school classmates
formed a nonprofit group called “The
Partners of ’63,” to focus on initiatives
related to K-12 education in poor urban
school districts. I served as its president
for many years. Our strategy was to spot
a highly effective nonprofit involved in
education and proven at a local level,
and help them roll out across the
country by helping to develop business
plans, using our personal networks.
We worked with about seven nonprofit
organizations in this way over the years.
Although we elected to end our Partners
’63 efforts when we reached our 50th
business school reunion, I still serve
on the national board of the initiative
that intrigued me the most — The New
Teacher Project. It has more than 350
professionals nationwide working to
improve school districts, particularly in
low-income neighborhoods. It is based
on the strong belief that ending education inequality starts with providing
excellent teachers to the students
who need them most. These nonprofit
activities have shaped my personal
insights on the critical issues impacting
public education.
What do you hope and envision
for healthcare in our community
during the next five years?
Although Community Hospital is
ranked right near the top of all hospitals
in California, we could fall short of
our goals related to the health of our
community unless all of us work
together to attract the next generation
of physicians to our area. CHOMP
identified the need for more doctors
early on, and has made major investments to improve the situation. Under
Dr. Packer’s leadership, the board
continues to actively assess this issue.
We anticipate important new strategic
initiatives to provide additional support
to our physician community. We’ve got
to keep thinking about what else we
can do.
What would you say to other
people about getting involved
in the hospital?
We need “thought leaders” in our community to take the time to understand
the complex issues facing healthcare.
Involve your friends and your networks
to help all of us at CHOMP build strong
support, as well as funding, for our key
strategic initiatives. Be proud of your
hospital’s role as an early adopter of
programs and technology. Everybody
should do this their own way. My hope
is that the people of this community will
have the confidence in our hospital to
back its initiatives in the early stages.
Whether with time or money, we all need
to rally around it.

Community Hospital Foundation Legacy
Auxiliary Celebrates 60 Years of Giving — By Giving
H
ow does Community Hospital’s
Auxiliary celebrate its 60th
anniversary? With a $60,000 gift,
of course.
Since its founding in 1955, the Auxiliary
has excelled at giving, both in service and
in financial support, putting in more than
4 million hours of volunteerism and contributing nearly $7 million for programs
and services. The latest gift is directed to
the Family Birth Center, where it will help
pay for new security doors at the entrance.
“We have received so much goodwill from
the staff and administration it was natural
to give something back,” says Jean Kane,
Auxiliary president,” and $60,000
seemed an appropriate gift to celebrate
the occasion.” The Auxiliary was started by eight local
women and has grown into a group that
now numbers about 500 and includes
men (welcomed in 1975), and college and
high school students. Auxiliary volunteers,
in the their red jackets and white pants,
can be found throughout the hospital
and its offsite locations, from the main
entrance, where they staff the reception
desk, gift shop, and Fountain Court Café,
to the Emergency department, Tyler Heart
Institute, Carol Hatton Breast Care Center,
and beyond.
They greet arriving visitors and wheel
out discharged patients. They serve up
warmth in waiting rooms and frosty
milkshakes at the café’s soda fountain.
They make Christmas stockings to tuck
newborn holiday babies in and clip and
snip large sheets of fleece into individual
“comfort wraps” for chilly patients.
When a loved one is undergoing surgery,
a volunteer may be the conduit between
the operating room and the family.
When a patient needs assistance with
a meal, a volunteer becomes their dining
companion. They provide that something
extra that helps make Community
Hospital such a comforting, caring place.
“The Auxiliary is a key link to the
community,” says Steven Packer, MD,
Community Hospital’s president and
CEO. “The members are the embodiment of the community through their
six-decade-long spirit of generosity
and commitment.”
“It is a deep honor to serve at the
hospital,” Kane says. “The appreciation
from patients, visitors and staff to
Auxiliary volunteers is at times overwhelming. We all feel we make an
important difference at the hospital. To me what is most amazing is the
number of years many of our volunteers
have spent giving service. Next year
will see our first volunteer with 50 years
of service. That is a milestone.”

Marilyn and David Grover . . . from front page
Jeffrey’s son, Casey, was in medical
school at the University of California,
Los Angeles during his father’s illness.
While his father was being treated at
Community Hospital, the younger Grover
met his future wife — Dr. Reb Close, a
UCLA medical school alum helping care
for his dad.
“Our first meeting with Reb was when
we went into Jeff’s room at the hospital,”
says David, “and there was this nice
young woman in scrubs, perched at the
foot of his bed. Our introduction to
Community Hospital was that personal.
Reb and Casey are now both on the
medical staff of CHOMP’s Emergency
department. They have different shifts,
so they can take care of their 5-year-old
daughter, Kai.”
A year ago, Casey proposed to his
grandfather that the two of them
collaborate on an article on hyperbaric
medicine, as a tribute to Jeffrey. “With my Navy diving experience and a
number of years of writing Navy history,
I suggested we look into the Navy’s role
in the history of diving medicine, and the
broader applications of what has been
learned,” David says. The result appeared
in the February 2014 issue of the Journal
of Emergency Medicine, titled “Albert
Behnke: Nitrogen Narcosis.”
The research and focus on hyperbaric
medicine inspired David and his wife,
Marilyn, to fund a Community
Hospital-sponsored, day-long workshop
on the growing use of hyperbaric
medicine beyond the treatment of
embolisms and wound care.
“We thought the hospital could bring
in a top-notch academician to lead the
discussion, with hospital staff members
providing coordinated back up, and
perhaps have the event approved
for continuing education credit,” says
David. “I believed that with the right
presentation, this could generate a lot
of interest.”
Stephanie Layhe, director of Rehabilitation Services for the hospital, was well
aware of the growing interest in
hyperbaric medicine and its applications.
Community Hospital has two hyperbaric
chambers, used to treat a range of
hard-to-heal wounds. Layhe knew of
physicians and staff members interested
in becoming certified to provide
hyperbaric care. So she contacted
Dr. Thomas Serena of Massachusetts,
an international leader in acute and
chronic wound care and incoming
president of the American Hyperbaric
Society. She invited Serena to present a
grand rounds lecture to promote the use
of hyperbaric technology in medicine.
“Thanks to the generosity of David and
Marilyn Grover, we created this one-time
event, which saved us from sending staff
members and physicians out of the area
to get certified in the use of hyperbaric
medicine,” Layhe says. “Ten people were
certified: our wound care manager, three
staff members, and six physicians. And
we had 43 people attend Dr. Serena’s
grand rounds, with a lot of interest
and questions. This is not something
a lot of people know about. But thanks
to the Grovers and the memory of their
son Jeffrey, we now do.”
David and Marilyn Grover have long
been involved in charitable giving, at a
modest level. Once they became aware
of the “benevolent attitude” of the IRS
toward non-cash giving, they looked
into it.
“When we learned that a stock that had
a high capital gain could be given to a
charity and that the charity would pay no
capital-gains tax on the transaction, and
neither would we, we were determined
to go ahead along this new pathway,”
David says.
The Grovers chose a well-known stock
from their portfolio, which paid only a
modest dividend but had recently
reached an all-time high value. If they
sold it through conventional channels,
the capital-gains tax would wipe out
much of their profit. If they gave it to
Community Hospital Foundation, the tax
deduction would be for its full value as
converted to cash by the hospital. The
choice, says David, was easy.
“There are many advantages to this kind
of giving,” he says. “It can involve all
types of property — securities, real
estate, art — which are often costly
to sell readily. It can represent a way to
clear out the odds and ends of holdings
that don’t fit into the current interests
of the owner. Community Hospital,
as the recipient, can handle much of the
paperwork for the transaction through
a staff that knows how to do it.
“A sense of paying back for our own
good fortune accompanies a gift to
Community Hospital, whether made as
a memorial, commemoration, tribute,
or for any other reason. It’s just a great
idea.”

The Art of Giving
DONOR RECOGNITION
Karen D. Egan
The donor recognition wall at Community
Hospital is not a typical acknowledgment
of philanthropy. Rather than a hierarchy of
engraved brass plates, the wall is a sculptural installation that complements the
vision and inspiration of hospital donors,
whose names are inscribed in crystal over
a backdrop of an impressionistic seascape.
A lighting system operating behind cherrywood cabinetry illuminates the wall,
varying from sunrise to moonlight, casting
warmth and color or cool dusk, depending
on the time of day.
Stephanie and Jack Harkness
Community Hospital is honored and grateful to add to our recognition wall these
donors whose recent contributions are an
investment in our community.

PHYSICIAN PROFILE
Dr. Martha Blum Takes on Superbugs
and Other Infectious Diseases
Four-year-old Miles Blum walked into his
preschool and explained the Ebola virus
to his classmates in great, graphic detail.
His teachers were quite surprised — until
they realized his mother, Martha Lewis
Blum, MD, is board-certified in infectious
diseases and internal medicine. Blum
is the new medical director of Infection
Prevention and the Antibiotic Stewardship
Program at Community Hospital of the
Monterey Peninsula.
it appropriately — the right antibiotic, in
the right dose, for the right period of time,
under the right circumstances.”
In these dual roles, Blum works with
other medical staff members and clinical
staff on measures to prevent, control,
and monitor infections and to help ensure
that antibiotics are used appropriately.
The risk in overusing antibiotics is that
new resistant strains of infection —
superbugs — appear.
Blum’s third title is infectious disease
consultant, which means she treats
inpatients at Community Hospital and
outpatients through Peninsula Primary
Care in Carmel. Her medical degree and
a doctorate earned simultaneously in
medical virology put her at the intersection of research and application.
“Antibiotic stewardship is a relatively
new idea not a lot of people know about,
but it has been getting more attention
from the Centers for Disease Control and
the Obama administration,” Blum says.
“California law requires that all acutecare hospitals have a program in place to
supervise the judicious use of antibibiotics.
Part of what is driving the increasing
numbers and resistance of bacterias is
inappropriate use of antibiotics. So,
mandates from the state and federal
governments will monitor antibiotic use.
This is not about restricting use but using
Blum graduated from Cornell University,
Cornell University Medical College, and
Rockefeller University, all in New York.
She did her postgraduate medical
training at University of California, Los
Angeles, and joined its faculty as an
assistant professor for seven years.
“In a small community like ours, we
can have a really large influence,” Blum
says. “I’m interacting with primary care
providers as well as all physicians in
the hospital to develop a culture where
everyone is concerned with use of antibiotics in the community.”
Blum was trying to envision the future
for herself and her family — two
young children, Miles, and Ellie, and
her husband, Michael — when she
received the call to consider coming to
Community Hospital. Dr. Geraldine Taplin,
an infectious disease specialist and
medical director of Outpatient
Immunology Services, was determined
that a strong infectious disease program
continue, and became instrumental in
Blum’s recruitment.
“My husband had worked as an
independent TV editor and producer for
almost 20 years,” Blum says. “We were
looking to get out of the big city and
be more connected and closer to family
in the Bay Area. The wheels started
turning about what we would like to do
and where we’d like to go. When this
opportunity came up, I was so excited
to move to this community and become
part of it.”
“Everyone is so wonderful to work
with and so quick to anticipate patients’
needs and my needs,” says Blum.
“People step up and never hesitate
to let me know the smallest detail that
may help me support a patient. In the
big city, it’s not like that. We got a lot
of detachment from patient care, and
a lot of, ‘It’s not my job.’ You can’t have
that kind of attitude in a small community. Here, everyone has the best interest
of the patient in mind. This is a great
community, and I find it just the change
I was looking for. It’s been a really
good match.”
