Building a Better Tomorrow

When you’re a child, it’s pretty easy to let your imagination soar—to be more open to possibilities and less concerned with the odds of success. Sure, you might end up with a few more bumps on your head and a few more tears in your eyes, but you don’t cry about what might happen, only about what has.

The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation has that same attitude.

We’re dreamers. We don’t waste our time dwelling on what could get in our way. We focus on the advances we can make though our medical professionals’ imaginative research, take pride in helping sick children from Edmonton and far beyond, and constantly strive to improve the experiences of those who visit our hospital, whether they come because they’re sick or because of someone they love.

And we’re so thankful for the bravery and imagination of all the people we’ve been able to help along the way. It’s not easy to keep your chin up and a smile on your face when everyone around you has sombre eyes—or to look at the bright side of things when all the rules of adult life say the odds are stacked against you.

Of course, we see those same qualities in the people who help us by volunteering their time and donating their hard-earned money. They see not only what we’ve been able to accomplish but how much further we can go. After all, the hope of a better tomorrow is what drives us to look after our children. With your support, we can continue to use that passion to realize the full potential of the Stollery Children’s Hospital.

“We’re dreamers.... And we’re so thankful for the bravery and imagination of all the people we’ve been able to help along the way.”

A Foundation Built on ExcellenceThe Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation is always looking to the future. That’s because the world-class level of pediatric care at the Stollery Children’s Hospital is just a glimmer of the full potential that exists.

To achieve that potential, the Foundation is committed to three things: funding excellence at the Stollery, thanking our many donors and supporters for their invaluable contributions to children’s health care, and informing our donors of how we are investing the money in the best people and technology to elevate pediatric programs, services, and capacity.

We’re very pleased to share with you our Report to the Community. In these pages, you’ll meet several Stollery specialists and researchers who will share their unique perspective on the direct impact your donations have on the Stollery’s ability to maintain excellence.

As we refl ect on and take pride in the Foundation’s many accomplishments during 2012/13, we are excited about what’s to come. Our team of passionate fundraisers and volunteers is invigorated and energized.

We continue to work closely with the various Stollery teams to identify the many priority funding projects in the years ahead. One of these projects is a three-year capital campaign to support a major expansion of critical care services at the Stollery, including the operating rooms and critical care facilities, as well as ambulatory, or outpatient, care services.

We appreciate everything you do to support us in building a brighter future for Stollery kids everywhere. Thank you for helping to realize the potential that is within every child.

NIDCAP Improving Outcomesfor Premature BabiesNIDCAP (the Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program) is a clinical practice philosophy that’s embraced by the Stollery and that’s improving the lives of premature babies around the world. In 2012, the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation provided priority funding to introduce NIDCAP to Edmonton neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), so that all babies receive family centred, individualized, developmentally supportive care while in the NICU. Today, the program is being implemented at the Stollery’s NICU at the Royal Alexandra Hospital, and at the Covenant Health Intermediate Care Nursery at the Grey Nuns Hospital.

NIDCAP is an evidence-based model designed to support the brain development of premature babies. When babies are born prematurely, their body systems are immature and have to continue development in a less-than-ideal environment, often completely separated from the parents. NIDCAP promotes a supportive and appropriate NICU environment, from the physical space, to the delivery of caregiving procedures, while reaffi rming the parents in their critical role as the most important caregivers for their baby. The Stollery believes that NIDCAP

offers the best and most effective approach to neonatal care.

Today’s advanced neonatal critical care treatments contribute signifi cantly to the survival of premature babies and help to fulfi ll their physical needs, but what’s been less well understood is how best to promote brain development. A premature baby’s brain is still growing once he or she is born, and a busy hospital room fi lled with cold equipment and bright lights is a stark contrast to the supportive environment of the mother’s womb.

NIDCAP helps medical professionals and parents recognize the infant’s behavioural communication. This behavioural communication informs us of how the baby’s brain is dealing with the unexpected experiences of the NICU, and thus helps caregivers to maximize comfort and pleasure and minimize stress and discomfort during treatments, tests, feeding, bathing, etc. The baby’s cues become the basis of the care, so understanding this behavioural language helps the NICU team and family to improve both physical care and brain development.

It’s a very successful model of care. The landmark NIDCAP study, done at the Royal Alexandra site NICU of the Stollery, showed that premature babies who received NIDCAP care were home an average of 10 days earlier, showed better weight gain, required fewer days on a ventilator, required fewer days of extra oxygen therapy, and—most signifi cantly—were less likely to have developmental delays at age 18 months.

The results for brain development for babies who received NIDCAP care convincingly demonstrate that NIDCAP promotes better development of the brain. It’s not surprising, therefore, that the training and education required to become a NIDCAP practitioner is intensive. Physicians, nurses, and other members of the NICU team require in-depth training based on a standardized and evidence-based curriculum, with many hours devoted to learning how to care for the infants and support the family in the developmental care framework of NIDCAP.

NIDCAP is based on direct observation of the baby, looking at patterns of breathing, sleeping, awake time, facial expressions, movements, and social interaction, all of which communicate levels of comfort, contentment, stress, pain, or discomfort. Practitioners learn to recognize how each baby copes with different interventions, and must then devise a treatment approach that takes the individual baby’s behavioural communication into consideration.

As a result of funding from the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Stollery is working on implementing NIDCAP throughout NICU care in Edmonton. The goal is to have 12 staff fully certifi ed in NIDCAP observation at the Royal Alexandra Hospital NICU site. Currently, fi ve staff have completed the training and several are in the training pathway. The Stollery NICU team hopes to incorporate NIDCAP-based care through all the health disciplines providing care in the NICU via ongoing education by the NIDCAP team. Eventually, there will be full NIDCAP education and implementation at the other three nurseries in Edmonton (David Schiff NICU at Stollery’s WMC location, Grey Nuns ICN, and Misericordia ICN), all of which are part of the Neonatal Program for Northern Alberta. The fi nal goal is to develop the fi rst Canadian NIDCAP Training Centre, to train other NICUs in this approach to newborn care.

Of course, there’s still more to be done.

Dr. Juzer Tyebkhan, the neonatologist leading the Stollery’s NIDCAP program, has a vision of an ideal NICU. It includes individual family rooms for each newborn—a place where families are encouraged to stay to help their baby’s development and growth, mind and body, to be the most healthy infant possible.

NIDCAP is about more than just babies in hospital. It’s about the entire family, the NICUs, and guiding a process to facilitate the best outcomes for newborn babies.

In April of 2009, fi ve families sat down with senior management at the Stollery Children’s Hospital to ask each other an important question: What do we need to do to become a better hospital, not only for our patients, but for their families?

Family Centred CareA Hospital for the Whole Family

19

Family centred care

To them, the answer was clear. If the Stollery could consistently engage families in the care of their children, everyone would benefi t. In order to do this, the families and management agreed that a formal system would be required. Out of that meeting, the Family Centred Care Council (FCCC) was born.

The initiatives and operations of the FCCC are primarily funded by the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation, and are coordinated out of a small, brightly coloured, and welcoming Family Room on the fourth fl oor of the Stollery. There, a passionate team goes about organizing the hundreds of family volunteer engagements, family centred care projects, and hospital initiatives that include families and their unique perspectives in improving the care of children at the Stollery.

You’d be surprised how integrated family centred care has become since its inception in 2009.

“If the Stollery could consistently engage families in the care of their children, everyone would benefi t.”

20

“The way we look at it,” explains Marcel Panas, Coordinator of Family Centred Care, “it’s not any one thing that we do that improves the experience for families and patients. It’s a systematic approach at every level. We have families represented in management, on operations committees, on the human resources committees that select senior managers, reviewing policies and procedures, and involved in creating peer support programs. It’s this broad spectrum of things that makes family centred care what it is at the Stollery.”

A recent example of the FCCC’s work can be found in almost every patient room at the Stollery. A simple whiteboard with a few carefully chosen headings and prompts now acts as a valuable tool for communication between patient, family, and staff. Whiteboards aren’t entirely uncommon in hospital rooms, but the Stollery’s were designed in collaboration with staff and the FCCC for the unique needs of young patients and their families.

These simple tools offer patients a place to write their name, how they’re feeling that day, and more, creating a space where they can feel recognized for more than just the information on their chart. It also has sections for the names of the nurses and doctors, to immediately put the staff and families on a fi rst-name basis.

21

“It’s this broad spectrum of things that makes family centred care what it is.”

Of course, as is typical inside the Stollery, people are innovating. The boards are also being used as translators for families with non-English-speaking grandparents and other relatives. Choice phrases and words can be written on the board in English and in other languages, helping families and doctors relate to one another.

The real victory for family centred care at the Stollery is the scope at which it’s being embraced. The number of families that have previously had children at the Stollery who want to be engaged, along with the number of requests from physicians and staff asking for the support of families in improving care, is overwhelming.

So next time you or someone you know visits the Stollery and sees the detailed attention that goes into supporting families as key members of their child’s care team, know that this isn’t something that comes easily. It’s the result of a tireless team that’s always on the lookout for new ways to make everyone’s journey through the Stollery even better.

“The real victory for family centred care at the Stollery is the scope at which it’s being embraced.”

24Dr. Tim Colen and Dr. Lisa Hornberger review an echo

image of an unborn baby’s beating heart.

We’re all familiar with the stethoscope. In fact, you might call it the quintessential doctor tool. By listening carefully, physicians can measure the strength and regularity of the beating heart, and even determine whether the valves are working properly or whether there are any irregularities.

But what do doctors do when they need more information than can be garnered from a simple thump-thump? Dr. Lisa Hornberger and her team of pediatric sonographers asked that same question.

Dr. Hornberger is the pediatric cardiologist who heads the pediatric and neonatal echocardiography (echo) program at the Stollery Children’s Hospital. She gets to see the inner workings of patients’ hearts every day, including at the earliest stages. Even when a fetus is only seven weeks old, and the heart is just the size of a red lentil, her echo equipment can capture 3-D video of the heart beating in real time.

Fetal EchoA Window tothe Heart

25

Innovation and discovery

The opportunities that this technology has created for doctors are inspiring:

If an unborn child suffers from a congenital heart disease or other cardiac problem, surgeons were previously unable to understand how exactly the heart was behaving until they performed surgery. Today, through use of the echocardiogram, a pediatric cardiac surgeon can watch the actual behaviour of the heart before surgery, giving him or her a much better sense of what needs to be done when surgery actually begins.

Knowing how a baby’s heart is functioning before birth also gives doctors a much better perspective on how it will function after the baby is born. With better information, health care practitioners can make better decisions. As a result, more babies can get the care they need when they need it.

Premature babies might not have heart issues right away, but researchers are now fi nding that when these kids reach their 40s, heart conditions become more likely. Doctors and researchers need a better understanding of how a premature birth actually strains the heart. With more information at their disposal, they can do more to prevent problems later in life.

The echo lab is a great example of what can be achieved when research, funding, and passion for care are pushed forward. Every day, Dr. Hornberger and her team do incredible work for the tiny patients they see. And as the lab continues to grow, the care for those kids will grow with it.

Countless families, like Josiah

experienced the benefi ts of the

Stollery’s fetal echo program.

28Dr. John Neilson, Dr. Lawrence Richer’s colleague,

meets with Marissa in the Stollery’s one-of-a-kind

autonomic lab.

Marissa was diagnosed with a bowel condition in grade three. As she got older, the condition worsened. By the time she was in grade 11, she was fainting as often as fi ve times a week. Her high school in Saskatchewan considered the problem to be such a risk that she was asked to stop coming to class altogether. She had to leave her friends behind and start learning from home.

TheAutonomic LabA Backstage Passto the Brain

29

Journey of the complex child toward optimum health

Throughout her life, Marissa had undergone a battery of tests to try to determine the cause of the fainting. She’d had EEGs, brain scans, and more. But the confusion only continued.

The way Marissa and her family saw it, there was an underlying issue preventing her from getting healthy. It was as though she was trying to run a race while stuck on a treadmill.

Marissa’s mom’s friend, a doctor at the Mayo Clinic in Minneapolis, offered to look at Marissa’s fi le. The friend recommended that Marissa get checked for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS. It’s a condition of orthostatic intolerance. In other words, it means that an individual doesn’t tolerate the upright position and, as a result, faints a lot.

Symptoms of POTS include light-headedness, exercise intolerance, extreme fatigue, and fainting. It fi t well with Marissa’s symptoms and seemed a likely diagnosis, but fi nding someone who could actually test for and diagnose the condition wasn’t easy. In fact, there was only one person Marissa’s doctor was aware of who could provide a proper diagnosis: Dr. Lawrence Richer, pediatric neurologist at the Stollery Children’s Hospital in Edmonton.

Through funding from the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation, Dr. Richer has pieced together the only children’s autonomic lab in the country. It’s a lab that helps his team understand many of the automatic responses in the body that help us function properly. Dr. Richer uses the lab “to interrogate the body, gain information on how our systems operate, and determine if anything is irregular.”

Dr. Richer uses the lab “to interrogate the body, gain information on how our systems operate, and determine if anything is irregular.”

Even though we don’t realize it, the autonomic nervous system, or involuntary nervous system, controls much of our everyday lives. It is responsible for maintaining blood pressure, heart rate, blood fl ow to your skin, sweating, and the size of your pupils—all without your thinking about it. If something isn’t working right with this system, it causes a lot of problems that can be challenging to diagnose.

But there’s a difference in how Dr. Richer, as a neurologist, analyzes symptoms as compared to how a cardiologist would.

“What I’m asking,” Dr. Richer explains, “is not ‘Is the blood pressure or heart rate okay?’ What I’m asking is ‘Are the neurologic refl exes that control that system working?’”

In other words, his tests look at the brain functions that control the heart instead of the heart itself.

In Marissa’s case, after the tests were done, Dr. Richer was able to make a diagnosis and a plan that he and the family are optimistic about. And all of it was made possible through funding from the Foundation.

“Dr. Richer has pieced together the only children’s autonomic lab in the country.”

31

Dr. Richer’s work isn’t done yet. His vision for the future looks at ways he can gather even more comprehensive information about a child’s autonomic system.

“The one area I would like to take this is measuring autonomic responses outside of the hospital. There is incredible biometric monitoring technology available where patients wear sensors outside the hospital and we learn something from how they interact in their normal environment.”

With all the work that’s been done to date, and all the work that still needs doing, Dr. Richer is incredibly thankful for the Foundation and the hope that his lab is giving to kids like Marissa.

Alberta Health Services provides the Stollery Children’s Hospital with the funding to be a truly great hospital. The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation’s goal is to help the Stollery push the limits even further in striving for excellence in pediatric health care.

A Critical Massof ExpertsAttracting doctors from around the world

35

Highly skilled child health care professionals

The Foundation provides annual funding of $1 million to the Department of Pediatrics in the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry to help the Stollery train new doctors. While the Government of Alberta funds the training of doctors from Alberta, a portion of the funding from the Foundation allows the Department of Pediatrics to recruit and train new talent internationally—a tactic that allows the Stollery to extend its infl uence.

Every year, the money supplied by the Foundation funds roughly 10 trainees. These trainees bring their unique specializations from around the world, sharing their research perspectives with their Stollery peers while receiving advanced training as residents and fellows.

The practice of international recruiting is an important one for any world-class hospital. Since the talent pool is only so big, hospitals all over the world are forced to compete for the same gifted physicians.

“The solution is to create a research-intensive environment where doctors choose to hone their skills.”

The solution is to create a research-intensive environment where doctors choose to hone their skills. That means funding opportunities, gifted peers, and mentors willing to pass their knowledge along to the next generation of pediatric professionals. And even though not all the doctors, specialists, and sub-specialists who come to train at the Stollery stay at the Stollery, when they travel back to their home countries, they take with them the stories and experience of the great work being done at an impressive children’s hospital in Edmonton, Canada. That infl uence and knowledge is disseminated to the next generation of doctors in those countries, making the Stollery a place that they and their peers will want to train as well.

A world-class centre of excellence is not easy to build, but the doctors running the pediatric program at the Stollery are committed to creating one. Like any challenging task, it takes hard work, dedication, and plenty of education. The age-old adage “less is more” simply doesn’t apply in medicine.

Dr. Susan Gilmour elaborates on the constant need for more education and training:

“Just like everything else, less isn’t more; more is more. More education is more. You need more education to do what doctors used to do. Two decades ago, a new doctor could train for three years, then go out and get CIHR grants, set up a lab, and be a big international expert. Nobody can do that now. You need way more time in training and way more focus in a niche area.”

“A world-class centre of excellence is not easy to build.”

37

The Foundation’s funding of $1 million tries to address as many of these areas as possible by funding advanced research and clinical training over and above the training of international doctors. Examples of the work that’s been done include 3-D echocardiography, fetal echocardiography, research in Crohn’s disease, and training in pediatric rehabilitation medicine.

Currently, the funding for training is used for pediatric medicine, but pediatric surgery is interested in building a critical mass of excellence in its practice as well. As the Stollery and the Foundation continue to grow, we look forward to the inspiring work that these doctors are sure to provide the world of medicine.

“Doctors need more education to keep up with advancements, more training to stay on the cutting edge of research, and more collaboration to maintain a level of excellence.”

The Power of Community SupportWith more than 600 community initiatives a year supporting the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation, community members throughout Central and Northern Alberta show their passion and commitment to the Stollery in a variety of fun, creative ways.

From children’s birthday parties and school bike-a-thons, to community hockey games and formal galas, friends of the Foundation supported 639 community initiatives in 2012/13, helping to raise more than $2.3 million.

The 2012 year also saw the introduction of the Friends Asking Friends online donation program, which can be customized to a specifi c event to create an online giving community in support of community initiatives. Meanwhile, another program, Celebrations, is making it easier than ever for people who wish to direct proceeds from weddings, birthdays, and anniversaries to the Foundation. We intend to eventually expand the Celebrations program into cyberspace to allow donors to create their own online giving sites, invite others to give, and track their donations.

We are humbled by the ongoing support of our community members as every donation—no matter the size—has a profound impact on the quality of care being provided at the Stollery Children’s Hospital.

Volunteer HighlightsVolunteer program

The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation’s volunteers are an extended workforce whose primary role is to help the Foundation raise money. By donating time and skills, they help keep the cost of fundraising down, which means that more of the funds raised go directly to the Stollery Children’s Hospital.

Each year, volunteers donate hundreds of hours to supporting the Foundation, whether by volunteering as a member of our Board of Trustees, helping out on a phone bank, assisting with a silent auction, or taking care of business around the offi ce. Our volunteers’ dedication is essential to what we do.

The Foundation’s Volunteer Program has grown from 500 individuals to over 2,000 since 2001. In 2012, 850 active volunteers contributed 4,028 volunteer hours, which translates into an average administrative value of $60,420.

• Cotton Club: Aranya Hewapathrine

• Snowfl ake Gala: Steve Paul

PartnersChildren’s Miracle Network2012/13 Champion Child Presented by Walmart

Madison (Maddie) McKenzie DawsonAge 13Juvenile Rheumatoid ArthritisStollery Children’s Hospital Foundation

Just shy of her second birthday, Maddie went from being a happy, healthy baby to a tiny, weak toddler who could no longer walk. Her parents were devastated. Medical appointments over the next few months led her family to the Stollery Children’s Hospital. It was here that Maddie was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.

Since that time, she has been under regular medical care and treatment to manage her condition.

“The specialized care provided at the Stollery gave Maddie the confi dence she needed to face the challenges of this sometimes debilitating disease,” says her mom, Crystal.

Maddie is a dedicated student who loves to play basketball and fl oor hockey, and has dreams of being a kindergarten teacher.

Children’s Miracle Network has two simple goals:

• Help as many children as possible by raising funds for children’s hospitals.• Keep funds in the community in which they were raised to help local children.

In Edmonton and Northern Alberta, the funds that are raised through Children’s Miracle Network programs amount to 20% of the Foundation’s annual donations. These funds are essential as they are undesignated, allowing the Stollery Children’s Hospital to apply them to its priority needs—and what is raised local stays local.

The funds are raised through a variety of events and fundraising initiatives, with the kind support of an array of sponsors: Walmart, Costco Canada, RE/MAX, Dairy Queen Canada, KFC, TD, Corus Radio, Astral Radio, SMS Equipment Inc., Marriott, Pizza 73, PartyLite, Scholastic Books, Kinder, Air Canada, First Student Canada, Foresters Canada, Great Clips Inc., and Microsoft/Xbox.

The Foundation would like to thank every person who helped us raise more than $4 million in 2012/13 through paper balloon purchases, Blizzard purchases, and radiothon pledges, and every RE/MAX realtor who donated commission from home sales. Children’s Miracle Network could not operate without your fi nancial contributions, your volunteerism, and your willingness to spread the word about the incredible kids we serve.

In its proud partnership with Children’s Miracle Network, the Foundation ranked:

• 2nd overall in North America in per capita fundraising in markets of 1 to 3 million people• 7th overall in North America in per capita fundraising• #1 in Dairy Queen Blizzard sales, including #1 store• #1 Costco warehouse
