A Framework for the Future Strategic planning may seem like a buzzword, and unfortunately, it often is. However, for MGH Institute of Health Professions, strategic planning is an unfolding and dynamic process that periodically offers us a vital opportunity to re-envision our desired future, a process that has proved successful in directing our investment of time, effort, and resources. Further, it has the added benefit of assuring we remain ever mindful of our guiding principles, values, and priorities as we go about our daily work.

We initiated the latest round of strategic planning in early 2014. This broad–based process engaged our faculty and staff, students, alumni, senior leaders, trustees, and external stakeholders to share their unique perspectives of the Institute’s strengths as well as opportunities for improvement. Participants reflected on such trends and issues as the Affordable Care Act, changing population demographics, student affordability and debt burden, and accountability for program excellence, and were invited to suggest what priorities should form »the core of the new plan. The process culminated in affirming, with minor modifications, our mission, vision, and core values statements, and the creation of a new three-year Strategic Map to guide us through 2017. The new plan was approved by the Board of Trustees in May.

The plan was rolled out in the summer to the full Institute community as well as to stakeholders across Partners HealthCare System and in the community. George E. Thibault, MD Framing the plan is an overarching goal and challenge to advance the Institute’s Chair, Board of Trustees distinctive impact on improving health and health care, as this is ultimately why President, Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation

we are in the business of educating health professionals and scientists. Janis P. Bellack, PhD, RN, FAAN Specific strategic priorities were outlined to provide direction for accomplishing President and John Hilton Knowles Professor the goal and to ensure the Institute remains strong and relevant in the rapidly evolving contexts of health care and higher education as we work toward fulfilling our mission.

First and foremost, these priorities focus on assuring the Institute remains forward-thinking and proactive. They will guide us in the coming years to continue educating leaders who shape the future of health care by conducting leading-edge research; connecting our work locally and globally with our clinical partners and communities; ensuring the Institute’s continued financial strength; optimizing the quality and affordability of the student experience; aligning our resources with our priorities; and continuously innovating and improving our institutional effectiveness.

We are pleased to share the 2013–2014 Annual Report and the many stories that illustrate and pay tribute to the Institute’s vibrancy and the impact that our work and our faculty, students, alumni, and staff are having in the fields of education, research, health care, and community outreach.

TRUSTEE PROFILE John M. Connors III John M. Connors III and his family have played a large role in creating opportu- nities for people to attend the MGH Institute.

“We’re big believers in opening doors for those who might not otherwise be able to attend, especially people from a diverse socioeconomic and ethnic background,” says Connors, who recently completed a 12-year term on the Board of Trustees. “When we invest in the Institute, there is a multiplier effect on the dollar.”

His father, renowned ad executive John “Jack” Connors, chaired the boards of both Partners HealthCare and Brigham and Women’s Hospital as part of the family’s efforts to improve patient care. The younger Connors, however, decided to make his mark where health care begins—in the classroom. The Connors family once again came out in support of the Institute “The Institute educates the leaders who in turn train the next generation of at the 2013 Gala: (l-r) Jack Connors, caring, smart health professionals,” says Connors, who is founder of advertising Eileen Connors, DPT student Maryanne Alalade, John Connors, agency Boathouse Group, Inc. “When you walk into a hospital, you want the and Dr. Larisa Connors. people delivering care to reflect the ones who are seeking it.”

In his new role as an Honorary Trustee, he plans to continue supporting the school that he has been a passionate advocate for during the past dozen years.

“I want to ensure that the Institute remains accessible to those who otherwise might not be able to afford to attend,” says Connors, who was honored for his service at the 2013 Gala. “Scholarship dollars will help us achieve that.”

FACULTY PROFILE Lisa Tabor Connor Leading the first entry-level Doctor of Occupational Therapy program in New England was an opportunity that Lisa Tabor Connor, PhD, MSOT, couldn’t pass up.

“This is the wave of the future in the profession, having occupational therapists who are trained as scholars,” said Dr. Connor, the program’s inaugural chair and professor. “Health care is becoming more team-based, and if you have people around the table who don’t have the same level of professional preparation as other team members, then they don’t really get as much say in policy-making and setting the direction of changes in health care.”

She cited the Institute’s strong emphasis on interprofessional education that allows students to be integrated into team-based patient care.

“The more students interact with other disciplines, the more they can see what occupational therapists can do,” said Dr. Connor, who was previously an assistant professor at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. “They’re going to see how OT can contribute to keeping people healthy and engaged in their communities.”

She also was enticed by the program’s Functional Living Laboratory, an

ALUMNI PROFILE Kelly Brush Davisson ’13 Kelly Brush Davisson has turned a debilitating ski injury into a mission to help others.

A gifted athlete, Davisson was paralyzed from the waist down in a tragic accident in 2006, while competing for the Middlebury College ski team. It would be understandable if she were angry or lost hope, but she ignored negative thoughts.

“I’ve always had a can-do attitude,” the 2013 Master of Science in Nursing graduate says. “If I want to accomplish something, I set my sights and do it.”

She and her family subsequently created the Kelly Brush Foundation. It has raised more than $1.5 million over the past nine years through various events

The Vermont native set her sights on Boston, where her fiancé lived, to pursue a nursing degree. She chose the Institute, in part, because its track record with students in wheelchairs reassured her that she could successfully complete her degree.

“Their accommodations made it easy for me to learn and succeed in my clinical experiences,” says Davisson, who is working as a pediatric nurse practitioner in Maine. “From the coursework to the practicums, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
