Hellen Rodriguez, M.D. Center Foundation, it’s a wonderful time to look back Chairman at where Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center has Don Kendrick been. Certainly, 2011, was an important one for both the First Vice Chairman Hospital and for the community. William M. Grant Not only did we enlist many new donor partners during Second Vice Chairman the past year, but we also received a major bequest Richard E. Yochum, FACHE totaling $932,000 (for the Stead Heart & Vascular Center President/CEO Dr. M. Hellen Rodriguez and The Robert and Beverly Lewis Family Cancer Care Michael A.G.

Purnima Chaurushiya, M.D. These are two examples that symbolize the essential partnership that continues Richard P.

The money will be used to improve our facilities, reach out to our AUXILIARY community, and advance medical care.” 75th Anniversary M E R D TE Each year the Auxiliary donates approximately $100,000 toward meeting the ICAL CEN pledge, in addition to contributing $30,000 - $40,000 throughout the year to aid other programs and departments in the Hospital through the Auxiliary’s Sick Baby and Hospital Assistance Fund. Started in 1941, the fund continues to be the Auxiliary’s way of fulfilling requests made by Hospital departments throughout the year. Donations, fund-raising activities and the annual Holiday Homes Tour all add to the bottom line. In fact, the Auxiliary is the largest donor to Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center.

These efforts have also included renovation of the pediatric playroom, providing car seats for new babies born at the Hospital when parents can’t afford one, purchasing needed equipment for the NICU, providing clothing for emergency room patients and much more. The Auxiliary also gives $12,000-$20,000 each year in college scholarships to Hospital student volunteers studying to enter the medical field.

In addition to these vital gifts, an essential part of the Auxiliary’s service is volunteering. The Auxiliary is comprised of all the Hospital’s adult volunteers. They, together with student volunteers, give approximately 100,000 hours a year of service to the Hospital.

“Our volunteers are proud to belong to a Hospital which has received so many awards for superior quality care and customer satisfaction, and we like to think we help contribute to that.” said Marcia Paetau, Auxiliary president. “Each time a volunteer can address the basic needs of a patient or lighten the load for the staff, we free them to provide maximum care for those patients who need it most.”

7 Ludwick Family Foundation Grant Already Proving Invaluable A generous grant from the Ludwick Family Foundation, which enabled the PVHMC Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to acquire specially designed medical freezers where mothers may store breast milk that is later used to nourish their sick babies, has proven invaluable to at least one local family.

On March 27, Jack Stratton was born slightly premature to parents Laura and Casey Stratton of Claremont. Doctors diagnosed him with respiratory distress syndrome and admitted him to the NICU, where a ventilator was used to assist his breathing.

Because early breast milk is full of important antibodies that the Stratton’s wanted Jack to receive, staff went the extra mile to make sure it happened. A hospital- grade pump, also made available by the Ludwick Family Foundation grant, was provided, instruction was given, and Laura pumped every three hours during Jack’s hospitalization. He initially received breast milk through a feeding tube, but Zoey Perez after his strength increased he began receiving his mother’s milk through bottles provided in the NICU.
