Spirits Hearts - Calvary Hospital
Calvary Hospital 2013 Annual Report Hearts Open Spirits St r o n g For 115 years, Calvary Hospital’s mission has been to care for adult advanced cancer patients at the very end of their lives. We are the country’s only fully accredited acute care hospital dedicated to the needs of this special group. We know how difficult this time can be for the patients and their families. They will only make this journey once. Calvary partners with the family hand-in-hand to take this journey together – we don’t abandon them when they need us most. It is a privilege and an honor for us to be part of this journey. All of our employees approach their responsibilities with their hearts open and spirits strong. We are very blessed that this outlook permeates every single aspect of Calvary. This annual report will illustrate how much this philosophy affects us every single day. Contents 12 Calvary Fund, Inc.

Statements of Operations 21 Calvary Hospital, Inc. Staff and Affiliations Message from the Chairman of the Board and President As we enter our 115th year, Calvary Hospital has much to be proud of. Regardless of how the American healthcare system continues to evolve, one thing remains constant – the dedication of our employees. Whether they work at our Bronx campus, Brooklyn Satellite, or provide Home Care and Home Hospice in people’s homes, our employees approach their responsibilities with their hearts open and spirits strong. This outlook permeates every aspect of Calvary. We know that at this difficult time, families entrust the care of their loved ones to us; Calvary does not take this responsibility lightly. It takes special people to care for patients with advanced cancer. As many family members have told us, we partner with them hand-in-hand to take this journey together – we don’t abandon them when they need us most. Calvary employees provide a sanctuary for patients and families at this sacred time. We work together to ensure that the last moments in life for the patients are what they and their families would like them to be. This year, Calvary marked several milestones: • We cared for more than 5,785 patients and families. Our 200-bed Bronx campus and our 25-bed satellite at Lutheran Medical Center in Brooklyn served 2,955 inpatients; hospice and home care served 2,385 patients throughout the greater New York area; and 445 patients sought help at our Center for Curative and Palliative Wound Care. • In 2013, the Calvary Fund reported that $12,497,225 in gifts and pledges was raised for Calvary’s unique mission. Included in this total was a singular gift of $4,000,000 made to ArchCare, for the benefit of Calvary Hospital by The Jerome L. Greene Foundation, to name the Dawn Greene Hospice at Mary Manning Walsh Home. The hospice, under the supervision of Calvary@Home, will allow people to receive an inpatient level of care in Manhattan. • The NYS Department of Health gave Calvary permission to expand our Home Care program for the first time into Brooklyn, Staten Island, Rockland and Putnam Counties, and all of Manhattan. • Our 10th Annual Trusts & Estates conference attracted a record 325 attendees, comprised of New York State’s leading estate planning attorneys. • Our collaboration with Yeshiva University for the observant Jewish community continues to flourish. The YU Rabbinic Panel visited Calvary and we conducted a ribbon cutting of our Kosher Hospitality Room and Shabbos Lounge. • In memory of former Medical Director Dr. James E. Cimino, who served Calvary faithfully for more than 50 years, the Hospital established the James E. and Dorothy A. Cimino Award. The inaugural honoree was Cathy Kalinski, RN, BSN, CWON, who was recognized for her devoted care, kindness, and compassion, to patients at the end of life. Thomas J. Fahey, Jr., MD (left) and Frank A. Calamari • Calvary Hospital and Calvary@Home received full accreditation by The Joint Commission, an unbroken record since our first evaluation more than 23 years ago. We could not have accomplished this without the continued guidance of Dr. Michael J. Brescia. We celebrated his 50 years at Calvary at our annual Spring Donor Reception at the New York Botanical Garden. Our program in Brooklyn continues to grow. We care for inpatients at our Brooklyn Satellite, provide home care and hospice through Calvary@Home, and offer free weekly bereavement support program for adults, children, and teens in downtown Brooklyn. Through our collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), and the Middle East Cancer Consortium (MECC), Calvary hosted visitors from throughout the world who traveled thousands of miles roundtrip to learn the Calvary model of palliative care. We raised more than $1 million at our Annual Awards Gala, making it one of the most successful in our history. The Fund welcomed new board member William W. Wilson, while the Hospital Board welcomed Reverend Eric P. Cruz. We know they will bring their dedication and special talents to the Fund and Hospital Board deliberations. All of us, from the Board of Directors, Administration, Nursing, Medicine, support staff, and volunteers, are proud to be able to make our patients and their families as physically, spiritually and emotionally comfortable as possible. We appreciate the privilege of caring for those most in need of our care, at a most difficult time of their lives. Thomas J. Fahey, Jr., MD Chairman, Calvary Hospital Board Frank A. Calamari President and Chief Executive Officer 1 Calvary’s mission – to care for the physical, psychological and spiritual needs of adult advanced cancer patients and their families – is just as relevant today as it was in 1899, the year that the Hospital was founded in New York City. Since then, we have served tens of thousands of patients and their families with a diverse array of services. These include: inpatient care in the Bronx and Brooklyn; home care and home hospice; bereavement support groups in the Bronx and Brooklyn for adults, children, and teens; and the care of complex wounds at our Bronx campus. Why Calvary? We are a community When patients are admitted to our Bronx campus, Brooklyn Satellite at Lutheran dedicated to providing Medical Center, or Calvary@Home, they discover a few important things. patient care from the heart. We are here to care for your loved one – and you. There is nothing we would rather do. Calvary is about life. We know that however long we care for patients, it is our responsibility to manage their pain and symptoms and make each day as comfortable as possible for them. While they’re under our care, we address their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs with all the resources that we have at our fingertips. We won’t abandon our patient or their families. Once they’re admitted, patients become part of one loving family of compassionate care. This is the first and only time that they will be making this journey. In partnership with the family, we will make this special journey hand-in-hand with them. We will keep the family informed at all times, engage them in making decisions that are best for the patient, and tell them what will happen next. We don’t leave the family out of the picture. Families are so important at Calvary, we have an entire department devoted to their care. Calvary will do whatever we can to lessen the stress level for the entire family. 2 The Inpatient Experience Calvary cares for inpatients at our 200-bed facility in the Bronx and at our 25-bed Brooklyn Satellite at Lutheran Medical Center. Our goal is to get patients settled and comfortable in their rooms as quickly as possible, on the day they arrive. With one exception, each patient has a private room and bathroom. Telephone and TV service are provided at no charge. Patients can select their meals from a daily menu. However, the Nutritional Services department is happy to accommodate special requests. We realize that certain foods may evoke very happy memories. Our staff has often tracked down specific dishes, or recipes, all in their desire to bring some joy to a patient. We encourage family members to decorate the patients’ rooms with personal touches that will comfort and soothe their loved ones. We also try to find out all the little ways that we can make our patients feel at home. It might be as simple as a favorite dessert, music, or religious customs. Whatever it is, Calvary employees are always happy to go the extra mile to make a patient happy. Families entrust their loved ones to us; Calvary employees do not take this responsibility lightly. It is our privilege and honor to make this one-time journey together with our patients and their families. Within the first few hours, our patients meet the entire team that will care for them during the stay. This includes their doctor, nurse, cancer care technician, family care practitioner (social worker), spiritual care provider, and dietitian. At Calvary, social workers are called family care practitioners. This title more accurately describes the important role these team members play for our patients and families. The family care practitioner helps to identify what support the family needs and to ensure that they get it. This is the person family members are encouraged to contact whenever any issue arises. Family members often take on the caregiver role selflessly for years. When their loved one becomes a patient at Calvary Hospital, we relieve family members of that role. We allow them to simply become a family member again, to spend whatever quality time is left with the patient. 3 The Gold Standard in Patient Care Calvary surrounds people with tender loving care. Whether it’s hugging our patients, staying with them all night, or updating family members regularly on their loved ones, Calvary employees understand the importance of what they do each and every day. Our Nursing Department, comprised of registered nurses, nurse practitioners, and cancer care technicians, is an important reason why Calvary is world-renowned for its patient care. Whether they have spent their entire career at Calvary or came to us after working at other hospitals, our nurses want to be here caring for our patients. She went out of her way to accommodate my mother’s wishes and our entire family. The nurse made sure that my mother’s last moments in life were what we wanted it to be. – Comment about a Calvary Nurse A key ingredient of “Calvary Care” is our unique cancer care technician (CCT) program. Established more than 50 years ago, this rigorous six-month training program has produced hundreds of outstanding CCTs with the necessary skills to help people with advanced cancer achieve the best possible quality of life. Unlike other hospitals, we encourage visitors at any time – human as well as pets. People who wish to stay over may do so in the patient’s room or in several rooms on the premises – at no charge. We understand that when a loved one is near the end of life, making it easy for family and friends to visit is a simple yet important thing to offer. Our Brooklyn Satellite Patients and families at our Brooklyn Satellite receive the same excellent care as the people we care for at our Bronx campus. In 2001, Calvary opened a 25-bed Satellite at Lutheran Medical Center – the first “hospital within a hospital” in New York State. Since then, Calvary has truly become a part of the fabric of New York City’s most populous borough. To date, we have cared for approximately 5,000 inpatients and their families; brought our unique care to thousands of home care and hospice patients; provided bereavement support to dozens of adults, children, and teenagers; and educated many people on how to obtain quality end-of-life care for themselves and their loved ones. Whether a patient is at our Bronx or Brooklyn facility, or receiving our signature care in the comfort of home, they get the same high-level care that Calvary is renowned for around the world. 4 Calvary@Home Calvary opened a Certified Home Health Agency more than 25 years ago to provide care for patients in their homes. It added home hospice services in 1998 and nursing home hospice in 2002. Today, under Calvary@Home, our home care, home hospice, and nursing home hospice serve more than 2,350 patients annually in the metropolitan New York area. Just as we do with our inpatients, the Calvary@Home staff makes the journey hand-in-hand with our patients and their families. We work as a team and support the family members by teaching them how to care for the patient. When our father died at home, we called our Calvary hospice nurse right away. She got out of the shower and rushed to our home Calvary brings compassionate within 20 minutes. She didn’t abandon us when we needed her most. home care and hospice to thousands of patients each – Daughter of a Home Hospice patient year throughout the greater Through Calvary@Home, we offer comprehensive home care and hospice New York area. services to patients at home who are suffering from advanced cancer or other chronic and acute terminal illnesses. Calvary offers home care in all five boroughs as well as Westchester, Rockland and Putnam counties; and hospice services in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, Nassau, Westchester and Rockland counties. We also offer hospice services in more than 30 nursing homes in Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx and Westchester, Rockland, and Nassau counties. In 2014, under the supervision of Calvary@Home, we will open the 10-bed Dawn Greene Hospice at Mary Manning Walsh Home that will provide an inpatient level of care for a select number of patients in Manhattan. Calvary’s innovative Palliative Care services for Home Care patients continue to provide our patients with pain and symptom management, assistance with advance care planning, and psychosocial support. Calvary offers a continuity of care that no other New York area hospice can provide. Our home care staff is cross-trained to provide hospice care as well. When our home care patients need hospice, it comforts them to know they can rely on the same Calvary nurse, social worker, and home health aide to continue providing them with excellent care. 5 Family-Centric Patient Care Each year, Calvary is privileged to care for thousands of adult patients. PHOTO to come Every person’s journey is unique and challenging in its own way. By the time they arrive at the Hospital or are admitted to Calvary@Home, patients and families often are anxious, afraid, or even angry. There’s often a transition period before they realize that the new goal is one of “palliative care,” i.e., making the patient feel comfortable and free from the pain often associated with advanced cancer. Many people view palliative care as “lesser” care because it’s not curative. At Calvary, the opposite is true. There’s actually a greater level of care provided because we focus on patients and families. In fact, our physicians and nurses spend a great deal of their time and energy caring for family members during their loved one’s stay with us. Since 2004, Calvary’s Family Care Center (FCC) has served thousands of adults and children. It offers family members a respite from the emotional turmoil that can exist on the patient floors, the opportunity to check email, read a newspaper, get a manicure or a cup of coffee, or simply to gather their thoughts. The Hospital will celebrate the FCC’s 10th anniversary in 2014. To reflect the importance that Social Workers play in the lives of our patients and their families, this department is more accurately named, Family Care. Our social workers are family care practitioners. Each has a Master’s degree in Social Work and advanced end-of-life training. They choose to be here, working with people in one of the most intimate and difficult times in the life of any family. No other hospital puts the time and effort into caring for the family that we do. 6 Many people in the Orthodox Jewish community are not aware that they can receive excellent end-of-life care in accordance with Jewish law (halakha). Two years ago, Calvary collaborated with Yeshiva University’s affiliated Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary (RIETS) to provide rabbinic consultation to observant families about this important issue. Our goal was to arm people with the tools they needed to make the right end-of-life decisions for themselves and their families. Thanks to extensive media coverage and outreach efforts with key Orthodox synagogues, there is much more awareness of Calvary’s care and services in the Orthodox community than ever before. Pastoral Care Since it was founded in 1899, Calvary has always welcomed patients of all faith traditions. Today, we serve a religiously and ethnically diverse population of patients and families. Whatever a patient’s spiritual needs are, the Hospital is able and willing to help them. Thirty full-time spiritual care providers are available seven days a week to care for the spiritual needs of patients and families. For inpatients, they lead regularly scheduled worship services at our multi-faith chapel in the Bronx, visit the Brooklyn Campus regularly, and provide individual counseling. They also perform sacraments and other religious rituals. A Spanish-speaking ministry is available upon request. Spiritual care providers – including Rabbis – are also dedicated to caring for the spiritual needs of Calvary@Home patients and families. Three Rabbis care for hundreds of Jewish inpatients each year. In addition to kosher food, Jewish patients and their families can expect a daily visit from a Rabbi, food from an expanded Kosher Hospitality Room, Shabbos Lounge, Kabbalat Shabbat service, and celebrations of all major holidays. Calvary offers an accredited 20-week, 400-hour Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) Program, the country’s only such program that provides students with hands-on experience with terminally ill patients. We also host an Calvary has always welcomed patients of all faith traditions. We create a sacred space for every patient and family that we care for. Our spiritual care providers are available wherever and whenever our patients need us – seven days a week. annual Pastoral Care Day to share our expertise with the interfaith community. 7 Therapeutic Recreation At Calvary, we consider it our duty to help our patients enjoy what time they have left and to understand why we say that Calvary is the place “where life continues.” Every day, there is a hospital activity planned especially for patients. Activities may include ceramics, flower arranging, bingo, or music. For many patients, these activities may help them capture a glimpse of what their lives used to be like before their illness progressed. We know that whatever activities they choose to attend, our patients get a lot of joy and comfort from therapeutic recreation. Therapeutic Recreation coordinates a monthly visit by Juilliard students, a monthly patient birthday party, barbecues on the Hospital terrace, and the annual Café Noel holiday party in December. Café Noel gives patients and families precious time together at the end of the year. Calvary patients and visitors enjoy a daily recreational activity that brings joy and comfort to all. 8 We stand in awe of the humanity, courage, heroism, joy that happens every day in the Hospital and in Home Hospice. Bereavement Support Calvary first began offering bereavement support groups more than 20 years ago for the families of our patients. Today, more than a dozen groups meet at least once a week. The adult groups are organized by one’s relationship to the deceased – i.e. spouses, adult child, parent, sibling, etc. There is even a group specifically for men and one entirely in Spanish. Our children’s bereavement program includes: • “Precious Moments” groups – for children ages 6-12; • Teen support groups – for ages 13-17; and • A week-long summer day camp (Calvary’s Camp Compass®) that allows children to remember the family member they lost, and also to have fun. Calvary even offers an on-site bereavement support group – during the day – at an elementary school in Brooklyn. This is the first time ever in the NYC education system. To date our adult and children’s bereavement support services have benefited Our bereavement support thousands of people. Adults services are open to the and children do not need to community and are available have a Calvary connection in at no charge. order to participate in our free bereavement support groups. Calvary shares its bereavement expertise in several ways. We offer an annual 10-week bereavement course that “Mentors through Mourning” attracts a diverse audience of professionals from healthcare, education, and social service fields, and a four-week course. Each year, Calvary also acts as a host site for the Hospice Foundation of America teleconference and offers an expert panel immediately following the televised event. 9 Palliative Care Institute In 1985, the Hospital established the Palliative Care Institute to help educate health care professionals about how to provide the best end-of-life care to patients. Since then, it has welcomed thousands of physicians, nurses, social workers, and other health care professionals from dozens of countries for visits ranging from a few days to six months. In 2004, the PCI opened the Center for Curative and Palliative Wound Care. Under a team of experienced wound care doctors, nurses, and technicians, Calvary’s wound care center has become one of the largest and most effective centers dedicated to wound care in the New York area. It will mark its first decade in 2014. In 2005, the NIH’s National Cancer Institute designated Calvary “an international leader in palliative care” and invited us to participate in the Middle East Cancer Consortium (MECC). Comprised of the national ministries of health from Egypt, Turkey, Israel, Cyprus, Jordan, and the Palestinian Authority, MECC members have visited Calvary regularly in the last few years. Annual visitors to the PCI include health care professionals from coast-to-coast To date, healthcare professionals as well as 800 students from every medical school in the greater New York area. from more than 30 countries have The students, who come here for visits ranging from one day to semester-long traveled to the Bronx to learn the weekly visits, include EMT (emergency medical technician) trainees from the New Calvary model of palliative care. York Fire Department. Volunteers Calvary’s reputation for the best end-of-life care would not be possible without the hundreds of dedicated people who volunteer regularly for us. Volunteers at the Bronx or Brooklyn campus often transport patients, assist at mealtime, sit with anxious patients, and help with bereavement calls to family and friends. Volunteers with Calvary@Home can often be found providing companionship to our patients and offering a respite to their caregivers. Many volunteers are fluent in several languages or have knowledge of different cultural practices. These skills are a huge plus for a place like Calvary that accepts patients of every religious and ethnic background.

At that time, we had a significant group of children, not only with malignancies, but a multitude of congenital anomalies which required enormous energy to have any acceptable outcome. What was of particular interest was the large group of Orthodox Jewish children who suffered from neurologic degenerative disease associated with the slow and progressive descent into comatose states from which there could be no retrieval in this world. The reason for the unusual number of Orthodox children Michael J. Brescia, MD with his family centered upon the issue of care. Since many of these children would develop large bed sores, it was found that this On many weekends, our staff would wrap some of the complication did not occur at Calvary because the children babies along with their favorite toys, place them in bassinets, were constantly carried in the arms of the Sisters and staff, and put them in my car so they could come to my home for resulting in preservation of the skin and the decrease in the the weekend and immerse themselves in the environs of my number of neurologic symptoms, including seizures, possibly own children. This became a very popular weekend event for because of the constant touch and massage in their lives my children. at Calvary. Along with the large number of neurological diseases in I still can hear them. I still can see them. There, in the midst of patients with huge unspeakable failed children that came to Calvary arrived a new group who had cancers, were children who must have fallen from heaven and non-development of arms and legs.

The House of Calvary had become the first inpatient hospice for children that I am aware of. Young men with florid Kaposi’s Sarcoma lesions were admitted suffering from the disease which became known After so many years, this early Orthodox community has returned to Calvary Hospital and its home care with a new vitality including special recognition of all the religious requirements and special Shabbos lounge and suite. as AIDS. To this day, Calvary treats terminal AIDS disease. It became my custom during this time to carry the children in my arms during rounds because in a powerful way, I felt connected to a God whom I had never seen nor understood, Michael J. Brescia, MD but allowed me to enter the Grace of the Divine. Executive Medical Director 11 The Calvary Fund Report In 2013, $12,497,225 in gifts and pledges was raised for the mission of Calvary Hospital. Included in the total is a singular gift of $4,000,000 made to ArchCare for the benefit of Calvary Hospital, by the Jerome L. Greene Foundation, to name the Dawn Greene Hospice at Mary Manning Walsh Home. It was Mrs. Greene’s dream to bring Calvary Hospital’s inpatient care to Manhattan. We are grateful to Mrs. Greene’s daughter, Christina McInerney, President of the Jerome L. Greene Foundation, who is carrying out her mother’s wishes through this magnificent gift. Steven J.

Your extraordinary gift truly inspires us to provide the best care to those patients and their loved ones who turn to us at a most difficult time.” As 2013 ended, we were approached by the leadership of The Rogosin Institute, one of the world’s foremost research and treatment centers for kidney-related diseases, to participate in research focusing on a novel treatment for colorectal cancer. Through a grant of $320,000 from The Rogosin Institute, Calvary is participating in this promising research, under the auspices of the Palliative Care Institute, our research and teaching arm. We offer a sincere thank you to all who helped advance our mission through their generous giving. Your gifts enabled us to serve nearly 6,000 patients, their families, and their friends across our continuum of care. “Whether you include Calvary in your philanthropy year after year, or if you gave to Calvary for the first time, you have our deepest thanks,” Mr. Golub said. “In a shifting healthcare environment, your generosity offers the assurance that Calvary will continue to serve all who seek our unique, outstanding care.” Sheldon Amster Rudolph R.

Mrs. Greene was dedicated to Calvary’s mission of compassionate, comprehensive palliative and end-of-life care. When she died in 2010, Mrs. Greene left a historic bequest of $5 million to Calvary. Mrs. Greene’s daughter, Christina McInerney, who became President and CEO of the Jerome L. Greene Foundation upon her mother’s death, championed the new inpatient hospice at the earliest stages of its development. The Dawn Greene Hospice, which is on target to open in summer 2014, will be a fitting tribute to Mrs. Greene, and to the Foundation’s continuing dedication to our patients and their loved ones.

This facility, to be opened in summer 2014, will address the need for appropriate, comprehensive palliative care in Manhattan for patients with end-stage illnesses, and serve people who cannot be cared for at home for various reasons. Calvary’s partnership with MMW brings together two mission-driven organizations, both dedicated to providing quality care for vulnerable populations. This partnership is part of a larger strategic plan to serve increasing numbers of Manhattan residents across our continuum, which includes home care, home hospice, inpatient hospice, and bereavement support. Rendering of the Nursing Station Rendering of a Patient Room 2013 Leadership Gifts Calvary received a number of other generous leadership gifts in 2013, including: $300,000from Newman’s Own Foundation, for bereavement support for young children and teens, including Calvary’s Camp Compass®. $250,000 from Faye and Steven J. Golub to name the Nursing Station at The Dawn Greene Hospice. $190,000 from the RTS Family Foundation, for wound care for inpatients, and to support the Center for Curative and Palliative Wound Care. $125,000 from the Altman Foundation for the innovative palliative home care program of Calvary@Home. By purchasing a leaf on the Hospital’s Tree of Life, people may remember their loved ones and support Calvary’s unique mission. $100,000 from the Pat Cairo Family Foundation, for the care of our patients and families. Through 2013, the Pat Cairo Family Foundation has given the magnificent total of $1,540,000 for Calvary’s programs of care. $100,000 from the David Berg Foundation, to support expanded outreach to New York’s Jewish community, and for special services for Orthodox Jewish families of our patients. Calvary’s direct communications program, an extremely important part of our overall external relations activities, raised nearly $2,000,000 from close to 40,000 donors. We thank everyone who responded to our appeals throughout the year. Our special donor leadership group, the Storrs Society, named for Calvary’s founder, recognizes individuals who are annual donors of $1,000 or more. We now count more than 565 individuals as Storrs Society members. In 2013, we received a total of $2,193,626 from 38 estates. These special planned gifts provide the Hospital with crucial support and reflect the foresight and thoughtfulness of numerous patients, families, and friends. It is a credit to the hard work of our Professional Advisors Council (PAC), a group of trusts and estates specialists (see list, page 16), who help us identify new financial resources. The bequests we receive every year enable us to maintain the high standards that characterize Calvary’s exceptional palliative care. Gerald C.
