Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento

Celebrating the Next Generation of Care A NNU AL UPDATE June 2015

World-Class Facilities to Match our World-Class Care

When I started as CEO of Sutter Medical Center in 2011, our campus was in the midst of a total campus improvement project. The project involved a renovation of Sutter General Hospital (renamed Ose Adams Medical Pavilion), and construction of the new Anderson Lucchetti Women’s and Children’s Center and a multi-level medical office building. A community parking garage recently had been completed. On the same block that Sutter Hospital began its mission in 1923 to treat Sacramento’s sick and injured, Sutter was paving the way for the next generation of care. Over time, I have learned the signifi cance of this project. In an era where more hospitals are closing than are rebuilding, Sutter was revitalizing health care in the community and at the same time recharging Midtown Sacramen

to. After years of research, dozens of visits to the best health care facilities in the nation, and myriad meetings with community members, elected officials, our employees and physicians, we are pleased to present one of the most inno vative medical centers in the country.

Guiding Principle No. 1 – Patients First, Always In planning, designing and building the new Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento over the past decade, we have led with a clear vision and our values to deliver an innovative, creative and patient-focused approach to family-centered care.

Integrated Medical Campus Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento partners with Sutter Medical Foundation to offer a fully integrated

campus that combines the very best hospital care with comprehensive outpatient care, including surgery centers, urgent care, primary and specialty care, lab, infusion, imaging and much more. Within our main campus, we have five buildings conveniently connected by bridges so our patients and guests can easily move around our campus to receive care. This one-stop-shop medical community design is all part of Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento’s mission to provide patients with the right care at the right time and in the right place. In the 21st century, a hospital cannot act as a silo, working independently of other medical and support services. As a partner in building a healthier community, we must also reach into the community to locate the areas of need and provide services and resources to address those needs.

The BIG Move Day At midnight on Friday, August 7, teams of Sutter clinicians and 20 transport ambulances will assemble to move approximately 180 patients the two miles from Sutter Memorial Hospital to the new Anderson Lucchetti Women’s and Children’s Center and Ose Adams Medical Pavilion (Sutter General Hospital). And if moving all in one day isn’t a big enough feat, Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento is also going live with its electronic health record on the same day.

That’s why we partner with providers like WellSpace Health, a federally qualified health center, to ensure access to needed medical care for everyone. One way we partner is in providing primary care, behavioral health and prevention services to Sacramento’s homeless. With appropriate access to care being at the top of our collective missions, we continue to tackle the growing issue of emergency room use by placing Community Navigators in our Emergency Department to help connect patients with insurance, doctors, services and housing.

Beyond Top 100 While our world-class facility might be new, our world-class care is not. For the past three years, Sutter Medical Center has been designated as one of the 100 Top Hospitals and 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals in the Country by Truven Health Analytics. And this year we are among a select few in the nation to also earn the Everest Award that honors hospitals that have achieved both the highest current performance and the fastest long-term improvement over five years. Our staff and physicians truly embrace our We Plus You partnership promise to provide an exceptional experience, with the highest levels of quality and compassion.

Future of Sutter Memorial Hospital

Sutter Maternity 1937

Sutter Memorial has served the region since 1937, delivering more than 346,500 babies and advancing numerous medical innovations along the way. Built on what was then the “edge” of town, the 20 acre site now sits in the heart of East Sacramento, one of the city’s oldest and most cherished neighborhoods. Redeveloping the site—and knitting it into the fabric of such a distinct, architecturally rich community—will continue the legacy of this great institution. The closure of Sutter Memorial presents a unique opportunity to redevelop the site in a manner which

Sutter Memorial Today

complements and reconnects the existing neighborhood. In place of Sutter Memorial Hospital, a new neighborhood will honor the existing architectural heritage of East Sacramento, while providing new homes built with high standards of green, healthy performance. To make this plan a reality, Sutter has partnered with StoneBridge Properties, a subsidiary of Teichert Land Co. Like Sutter, Teichert has been deeply committed to the growth, health and vitality of the Sacramento region for more than a century.

I look forward to an ever brighter, healthier future for us all. Thank you for your partnership with us. Carrie Owen Plietz, CEO, Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento

Art + Medicine The Healing Power of Art

This water color landscape on aqua board was painted by Michael Ireland and will be on the 4th floor just outside the elevator lobby.

When it opens its doors in August, the Anderson Lucchetti Women’s and Children’s Center will have everything it needs to care for patients – expansive space, private rooms, advanced technology and top-notch care teams. Beyond these necessities, but contributing immensely to the heart and soul of the building, is the artwork inside. The four-year effort was led by Kira Stewart and Erin Richardson of Art Consulting Services with the help of Sutter clinicians, the Sutter Child Life Program, patient and family advisory councils, focus groups and a research study. Together the team selected around 400 pieces of art for the new hospital, including several local, regional and national artists, and five commissioned pieces for various public spaces. Highlights include a glass and metal piece in the atrium, watercolor “steamy windows” art throughout the campus and a series of paintings across one of the spanning structures reminiscent of scenery visible from the Yolo causeway.

“Medical environments can be very stressful,” said art consultant Kira Stewart. “Everything patients interact with can evoke positive or negative emotions, from the lighting to the ease of finding their doctor’s office. Our job is to make sure the space feels supportive and calming by choosing artwork that is uplifting, inspiring and positively distracting.”

NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young and his wife, Barb, presented a check for $150,000 to Sutter Children’s Center, Sacramento last year to construct a state-of-the-art music therapy facility inside the new Anderson Lucchetti Women’s and Children’s Center.

The donation came from the Young’s philanthropic organization, Forever Young Foundation, and the music therapy facility will be named Sophie’s Place in honor of family friend, Sophie Barton, who often performed for pediatric patients in Utah until she died of a heart condition in 2010 at age 17. In the 1,000-square-foot space on the second floor of the Women’s and Children’s Center, construction workers will build two rooms within Sophie’s Place – one where music therapists will provide small group and individual treatment, and one that will be a recording studio for children to record their music. The rest of the space will be outfitted with numerous instruments and music for children and families to play, listen to and enjoy. Sophie’s Place is designed to be sound-proof so as not to disturb nearby patient care.

“We honor Sophie’s life and commitment to FINISH FLOOR PLAN music through the creation of Sophie’s Place, to help share the healing power of music with children in hospitals throughout the country and around the world,” Steve Young said. “Barb and I invite people across America to join us in this important new initiative for Forever Young Foundation.” Music has an extraordinary power to bring comfort and peace. Recent clinical studies have proven that music therapy provides evidence-based beneficial effects on young hospital patients. Music therapy uses musical experiences and activities to reduce pain and pain perception, decrease sedation required for pediatric procedures, increase relaxation and provide other healing benefits.

“We want to offer the best treatment to our patients, and music therapy is one of those programs that’s been proven to help in the healing process,” said Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento CEO Carrie Owen Plietz. “Sophie’s Place will offer a change of scenery for the children in our hospital and give them a place to be creative and express themselves.”

Sutter Health gives back. Our innovative and collaborative Community Benefit programs are designed to meet the needs of the most vulnerable populations in our region. Year after year, these programs connect hundreds of our region’s most most underserved to the care and resources they so desperately need. In 2014 alone, Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento invested more than $111 million in charity care and community benefit programs, designed to care for the underserved and strengthen the greater Sacramento region. Below is a snapshot of the impact made in 2014 by some of these vital programs: • Homeless patients who successfully complete the Interim Care Program (ICP) in Sacramento go on to live healthier lives, showing a nearly 65 percent reduction in overall hospital usage, post-ICP. ICP is offered in partnership with WellSpace Health, Sacramento County, The Salvation Army and the other regional health systems. • The ED Navigators (a partnership with WellSpace Health) at Sutter Roseville Medical Center and Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento connected with nearly 350 patients and provided nearly 3,500 referrals to primary and behavioral health services, transportation, insurance and countless other community resources. • Our Community Navigator (a partnership with Downtown Sacramento Partnership and Sacramento Steps Forward) reunited a missing man, suffering from severe memory loss, with his family after years lost and on the street. In addition, the Community Navigator connected nearly 120 homeless individuals to shelters, as well as transitional and permanent housing. • Sutter’s Triage, Transport and Treat (T3) program (a partnership with WellSpace Health), designed to provide ongoing case management to people needing access to primary care and wrap-around services, served more than 200 patients in 2014, with patients showing a nearly 50 percent decrease in ED usage and nearly 40 percent reduction in inpatient visits, post-T3 intervention.

Volunteerism and community is at the core of what we do. Commitment to the communities we serve is a mission that runs deep in the Sutter Health organization. In 2014 alone, our employees in the greater Sacramento region gave back to those in need by volunteering countless hours to incredible efforts like March of Dimes, the American Cancer Society, the American Diabetes Association and various local efforts and organizations. In addition, our employees: • Supported the annual Sutter Health Holiday Adopt a Family effort, adopting more than 200 families and ensuring the needs of the entire family were met for the holiday season • Purchase and donated more than new 4,500 backpacks, filled with school supplies, for local children • Donated nearly 4,000 pounds of food to local food banks

The Anderson Lucchetti name graces the new, 242-bed Women’s and Children’s Center in Midtown Sacramento. It is a fitting tribute to a family whose children and grandchildren were born at Sutter hospitals. “Being part of an opportunity to give families access to high quality medical care is a wonderful thing,” said Dave Lucchetti, president and CEO of Pacific Coast Building Products, Inc., the family business started by his father-in-law, Fred Anderson. “It is our way of saying thank you to the Sacramento community.” The Ose Adams family’s generosity helped to transform Sutter General Hospital into the newly christened Ose Adams Medical Pavilion. “As a family, we believe in the importance of quality health care and are honored to be able to invest in our community,” said Sacramento developer Enlow Ose. “This facility will undoubtedly enhance health care services offered in Sacramento for years to come.” All of us at Sutter Health celebrate the generosity of these two families, and all of our supporters, for their vision for a healthier Sacramento. The Anderson Lucchetti family and Sutter leadership gather to celebrate the naming of the new

Extensive Restoration Project Underway at Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park Located across from the Sutter Medical Center Midtown campus, Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park stands in dramatic contrast to the urban landscape around it. With dreams of creating an agricultural empire, John Augustus Sutter founded Sutter’s Fort in 1839, making it the first European/ American settlement in the Sacramento Valley. Now operated by California State Parks with financial assistance provided by Friends of Sutter’s Fort, special events and programming enliven the landmark throughout the year. A number of major restoration projects are currently underway at Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park that, in total, represent the most extensive restorations at the fort since a major reconstruction effort in the 1890s. While the public will be able to visit the fort as usual for most of 2015 – and be able to see glimpses of the important restoration progress underway – the work will require the fort to be closed to

the public for one month this summer in order to maximize guest safety and project efficiency. To see if there will be any impacts during planned visits to the fort, please visit suttersfort.org.

B Street Theatre in final stretch to

start construction of new theater

With support from the community, B Street Theatre patrons, the City of Sacramento, and Sutter Medical Center, the B Street Theatre is close to breaking ground on a new performing arts complex at 27th Street and Capitol Avenue, on land donated by Sutter Health. The 40,000-square-foot, two-theater complex will house the Sutter Children’s Theatre (365 seats) and B Street Theatre stage for grown-up theater audiences (Mainstage performances). “Proximity to Sutter will allow us to regularly perform for young patients and engage them in creative, hands-on activities like playwriting workshops,” said Buck Busfield, B Street Theatre founder and artistic director. “Last year, B Street presented on average three performances per day serving approximately 200,000 children through our school touring programs and in our theatre. Soon we will be able to serve thousands more kids and create a cultural hub in central Midtown with a new, state-of-the-art home.”

The new B Street Theatre Performing Arts Complex will include two theaters, a public courtyard, a café, and office and teaching space. For more information visit bstreettheatre.org.

Sacramento’s Baby Hospital 2.0

Sutter baby Mason with his parents, Andi and Kevin.

In 1937, Sutter Maternity Hospital opened with 52 beds and was the first air-conditioned hospital in California and the first to incorporate multiple small-sized nurseries and isolation techniques to prevent the spread of infection. Since then, Sutter has delivered more than 346,500 babies and became what many in the Sacramento community refer to as “Sacramento’s Baby Hospital.” Since the beginning, what eventually was renamed Sutter Memorial Hospital has been leading innovations and initiatives to help local mothers and families deliver healthy babies. In 1977, a family-and-patient-centered care care philosophy was initiated and is used today by physicians and staff to help encourage and involve the mother and father in the care of their infant from birth through hospital departure. And it was that family-centered care philosophy that helped guide the design of the maternity services at the new Women’s and Children’s Center.

High Risk Maternity While most pregnancies follow a healthy course, some mothers need special medical attention during their pregnancy. The new High Risk Maternity Unit will feature the same on-site perinatologists that serve today at Sutter Memorial Hospital, but now each mom will have her own private room. “This is especially needed for the moms who

spend two to three months on our unit before delivering their baby,” said Karen Kiyomura, director of the unit. “We also now have a special space for moms to gather with their family and friends outside of their room, and we designed it so that it is accessible to mothers on bed rest.”

Labor, Delivery and Recovery Features of the new birthing center at the Women’s and Children’s Center include spacious labor and delivery rooms, and postpartum suites. The private rooms feature views of Sacramento’s downtown skyline on one side and of the foothills on the other. The rooms were designed with families in mind and include a designated area for the mother’s support person with a fold-out bed, storage area and curtain for privacy. As a designated Baby-Friendly Hospital, babies never leave the mother’s bedside, and the nursing, lactation and pediatric services come directly to the patient’s room. “Our team specializes in high-touch care, and we believe the best thing for the baby is to be close to mother and family,” said Aneen Heller, director of the Maternal Newborn Unit.

Tiny Fighter Born at 23 Weeks

Emergency Department Just for Kids

At only 23 weeks, 3 days, Lauren was in preterm labor and transported by ambulance to Sutter Memorial Hospital. Soon after her arrival, Ellison was born weighing only 1 lb., 6 oz. Born very premature, Ellie had a slim chance of survival. But with her parents’ unconditional support and the experience of Sutter’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, she overcame the odds and is now Lauren feeding her 4 pounds. “She’s daughter Ellison in the overcome so much Neonatal Intensive and we look forward Care Unit. to bringing her home,” said Lauren. “Being in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit has been such a positive experience, and I’ve really appreciated doctors and nurses including me in her care decisions. It’s really been a team approach.”

A child’s trip to the Emergency Department can be a frightening journey into an unfamiliar world of adults. But it doesn’t have to be. At Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento, we are determined to make scary E.D. visits a thing of the past for children. “The first step in making our new Pediatric Emergency Department child-friendly was to change the way we triage our pediatric patients,” said Paul Walsh, M.D., medical director of the SMCS Pediatric Emergency Department. “Traditionally a family checks in and may have a long wait in the emergency waiting room before they go back to triage. Our goal is to get our patients right back into triage so we can start the patient’s evaluation and treatment immediately.” This new concept will be launched when Sutter Medical Center’s dedicated Pediatric Emergency Department opens in August. While Sutter hospitals have always cared for children in their emergency departments with more than 15,000 pediatric visits annually, they knew that mixing adults and children was not the best case for either population. After the child is stabilized and treatment begins, they will have the option to play in one of two new playrooms that will feature toys and activities to distract them from their medical care. “We know that many kids are frightened by hospitals,” said Dr. Walsh, “which is why we’ve created a safe zone for them, free of tests and treatment. We are also going to continue us ing techniques that minimize pain and anxiety, like intranasal medications, that help to eliminate needles and IVs.”

to premature and low birth weight infants and babies with congenital anomalies, cardiac defects, or who are critically ill and requiring surgical interventions. Sutter’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit can provide whole body cooling, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and the most sophisticated ventilatory support available to neonates today.

The new Pediatric Emergency Department that will be housed in Ose Adams Medical Pavilion (Sutter General Hospital) integrates children’s care seamlessly with the pediatric specialists at Sutter Children’s Center in the Women’s and Children’s Center. The Pediatric E.D. is backed up by dedicated pediatric surgeons, anesthesiologists and intensivists, and child life specialists.

The NICU admits more than 1,200 babies annually, a quarter of which come from the 23-county area served by Sutter’s Neonatal Transport Team. The team of specially trained neonatal nurses and respiratory care practitioners will now have access to a helistop on the top of the new Women’s & Children’s Center so critically ill and premature infants can be stabilized, prepared for surgery or admitted into the new 61-bed unit for further care.

“We are lucky to have such an experienced team dedicated to putting kids first,” said Dr. Walsh. “Our physicians are experienced in emergency medicine and have special train ing in pediatric care. We have a core pediatric E.D. nursing team and consultations from child life specialists. We have implemented evidence-based care protocols so everyone is empowered to make the best possible treatment decisions for our sick and injured children.”

Nationally Recognized Heart Care Program Gets a New Home For generations, the Sutter Heart & Vascular Institute has been transforming the way we care for our hearts, providing innovative care and advancing breakthrough research that have become gold standard in the cardiovascular industry. And it’s because of our world-class team that we have received national recognition from Truven Health Analytics as a Top 50 Cardiovascular facility three years in a row. The transition of cardiovascular services to the Ose Adams Medical Pavilion will usher in a new era of medicine. From the beginning, our heart program has continued an unrelenting pursuit of better, local care for our patients. It was in these early days of cardiovascular care that the seeds of the institute were planted by the renowned and pioneering cardiovascular surgeon, Edward A. Smeloff, M.D. Today, his vision has truly prospered into a remarkable and unique community resource, gaining access to hundreds of breakthrough cardiovascular treatments. From heart disease management and treatment, complex diagnostic testing, clinical trials and research, interventional and electrophysiology procedures, cardiovascular surgery and heart transplantation, our heart program is a one-stop shop for cardiac needs from birth to adulthood.

MitraClip a seamless enhancement to an already extraordi nary list of innovative cardiac procedures. The new space will feature a hybrid lab, which will allow us to perform complex procedures. In addition there will be a new electrophysiology lab equipped with state-of-the art technology like the Stereotaxis, which is used to treat patients with cardiac arrhythmia. “We are excited to begin providing care at an integrated medical campus with upgraded technology,” said David Roberts, M.D., medical director of the Sutter Heart & Vascular Institute. “These upgrades will allow our heart teams to continue providing leading-edge heart care for generations to come.” David Roberts, M.D., Pei-Hsiu Huang, M.D., and Marilyn Stanley, TAVR heart valve patient.

It takes big hearts to treat small ones. At only 3 months old, Keira had to undergo open heart surgery to fix her congenital heart defect. But thanks to the partnership between her parents and her pediatric cardiologist and pediatric cardiac surgeons, her surgery was successful and she is recovering well. “We’re so excited to enjoy our newborn period without the worry we had about her health issues before the surgery,” said Crystal. “We are so thankful for our Sutter team.” Keira Brooks being held by her cardiovascular surgeon Teimour Nasirov, M.D., and her parents Crystal and Bobby close by.

You get more than an expert. You get a partner.

While the exterior of the Women’s and Children’s Center is the only visible new addition to our campus, we’ve renovat ed Ose Adams Medical Pavilion (Sutter General Hospital), Buhler Specialty Pavilion, and added services to our other medical office buildings. Additional new features of our campus include: • A dedicated Joint Replacement Center that focuses solely on helping patients rehab and recover from hip and knee replacement surgery.

A new Radiation Oncology Center that offers advanced treatment services and a team with more than 80 years experience.

An expanded Blood and Marrow Unit which grew from six to 16 beds to continue to care for patients with leukemia or lymphoma and other blood disorders that undergo stem-cell transplants.

• Innovative minimally invasive surgical technology, including the most advanced robotic surgery technology for cancer and gynecologic conditions, a single-use probe that analyzes tissue removed during breast lumpectomy, and soon upgraded gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery to treat brain tumors and other neurologic disorders.

Growing With Your Family Is One More Way We Plus You We’ve been providing quality health care to Sacramento and beyond for more than 90 years, and the opening of our new campus will ensure we can continue to serve our community for generations to come.
