2 3 The Iowa Clinic Partnering for Community Health

In 2011, The Iowa Clinic, P.C. announced a gift of $1 million to support the Cardiology, Trauma and Critical Care Center to be built on the Iowa Methodist Medical Center Campus. This remarkable gift is the largest gift The Iowa Clinic, P.C. has made to Iowa Health - Des Moines and builds on 22 years of giving.

“As a leading provider of healthcare in the Des Moines area, we felt it was important to give back to the communities we serve. We are very proud of the meaningful work we have done to help build healthy communities. We are making great strides in living up to that mission.” C. Edward Brown, FACHE Chief Executive Officer, The Iowa Clinic, P.C.

In an emergency, when seconds can make the difference between life and death, it is important that the physicians, the nurses and the entire medical team have the best resources to provide the best care possible. How emergency medicine is practiced and the needs of patients and families have changed significantly in the last 10 years. The ambulances are larger, the equipment technology has advanced, and the types of emergency cases have grown significantly.

In response to the changes, in the Spring of 2013, Iowa Methodist Medical Center will begin construction to replace the existing emergency department with the Cardiology, Trauma, and Critical Care Center. This new facility will be designed to respond to all levels of trauma from across the state of Iowa, and will continue our commitment to ongoing training and education for the next generation of medical professionals.

This leadership gift from The Iowa Clinic, P.C. represents not only their commitment to providing the possible care, but also the significance of having state-of-the-art facilities to respond to members of our community at a critical time in their lives. Philanthropy will play a significant role in helping to make this project possible and we are extremely grateful for their commitment to the project.

In addition to this gift, The Iowa Clinic, P.C. has supported the construction of the Iowa Lutheran Hospital Emergency Department, the John Stoddard Cancer Center Rally Against Cancer, the Iowa Lutheran Hospital Westerberg Celebration, Blank Children’s Hospital Festival of Trees and Lights, and numerous other funds and projects.

The physicians and staff of The Iowa Clinic’s commitment to improving the health of the community is evident in this very generous gift.

2 3 After 37 years dedicated to caring for children, Dr. Rizwan Shah child abuse pediatrician, retired from clinical practice at the Regional Child Protection Center. She’s dedicated nearly 4 decades of her life to caring and advocating for children who need us most.

When Dr. Shah first came to the United States from Pakistan in 1968 she found no openings in her medical specialty at the time--surgery. So she took a hiatus from medicine to stay home and raise a family with her husband.

After a few years, she returned to medicine and switched fields to specialize in pediatrics. She came Des Moines in 1974 for a residency in pediatrics at Blank Children’s Hospital. Fortunately for the children of Des Moines, she stayed on, caring for them and becoming Medical Director of Blank Children’s Regional Child Protection Center.

Dr. Shah teaches child abuse training programs both in Iowa and nationally, as well as clinical teaching in medical schools and hospitals. She has served as President of the Iowa Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics and Co-Chair of the Iowa Medical Society’s Public Health Committee.

Dr. Shah not only has been an amazing doctor but she has also been a dedicated donor to Blank Children’s. She is committed to the programs that have touched so many children’s lives. She and her husband are personally generous supporters of this program also. It makes such a difference when the community sees the level of support coming from within our hospitals and are inspired in so many different ways.

“I’d like to be remembered as a physician who was not afraid to stand alone and speak for children; as somebody who addressed the social issues of their times,” Dr. Shah explains. “I couldn’t have hundreds of children of my own, but now in additional to my three children, I feel I have thousands of children. If I can make a difference in just one child’s life, I may help that child to grow up to be a capable parent and care for his or her own children and in that way break the circle of neglect and abuse in that family.”

A favorite Dr. Seuss quote of Dr. Shah sums it up: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”

4 5 Les and Carolyn Peltz Partnering for Comfort

Carolyn and Les’s cancer journey began in the spring of 1974 when Carolyn was diagnosed with stage IV Hodgkins. They were in their 20s with a two and four year old, cancer was about the furthest from their minds. Throughout that time Les was beside Carolyn as much as he could be, caring for her and supporting her through the tough days.

They knew how serious her diagnosis was and their prayer was that Carolyn would live long enough for the kids to remember her. By the fall their prayer had been answered and Carolyn was declared cancer free.

While cancer was always in their minds, it faded over time and it was not until a cold day in March, 2009, when they heard what they had always feared, cancer was again part of their lives. After seven months, in spite of all of the chemotherapy and radiation, Carolyn was not getting better.

Both Les and Carolyn were tired and frustrated, “we knew something wasn’t working. We wanted answers and no one seemed to be able to give them to us. “

It was at that point the Peltz’s were introduced to Carissa Thompson, a Cancer Care Coordinator for John Stoddard Cancer Center. The coordinators are specially trained oncology nurses that help guide and provide support to both cancer patients and families through the cancer journey.

What struck Carolyn and Les the most was that Carissa truly cared about them and their experience. She not only wanted to make sure that Carolyn was comfortable and receiving the proper services she needed, but Carissa was also there to help support Les in his role as the caregiver. As Les recalls:

“Being a care giver was lonely. I was so focused on making sure everything was right, that everything was working. Just knowing that you are not there by yourself was very important to me, she gave me the support I needed to help Carolyn. She cared for both of us.”

On December 13, 2009, Carolyn lost her fight against cancer. Among the many faces at the visitation, Les remembers Carissa. He didn’t expect her to be there and was very moved by this very small act of continued support of him and his family. She was there not because she had to be, it was because she cared.

That is why Les supports the Care Coordinator Program. He wants to make sure that those having to go through the journey have the opportunity to work with Carissa and the other Care Coordinators to make the journey easier and more comfortable.

This program, supported through philanthropy dollars, does more than help patients pass the time. The Arts for Healing program was developed from evidence based research which has demonstrated that art sessions in hospitals not only help in times of healing but actually helps with healing. The outcomes we expect based on earlier research studies are an increase in patient satisfaction, an increased sense of control, a decrease in length of stay, and a decrease in healing time.

Patients who have participated in the art program have enjoyed the activity in addition to reporting improved mental and physical well-being such as a reduction in pain, anxiety, and tension.

“I can’t imagine a bigger joy than to be part of helping a patient find peace and contentment in his final days.” Volunteer Artist

8 9 Since 1965, thousands of Iowa children and adolescents have been served through the behavioral health programs at Iowa Health - Des Moines. Children and adolescents face many obstacles while trying to grow and find their identity. For some the obstacles – whether they are at home, at school or in the community – are so great that they are better served in a therapeutic environment under the supervision of mental health professionals. For these children and adolescents, the inpatient unit at Iowa Lutheran Hospital is one of the few places in Iowa where they can receive appropriate treatment, learn coping skills and other positive behavioral tools and continue their school work.

Since being built nearly four decades ago, only minor cosmetic updates had occurred on the behavioral unit. In 2011, with funding from the “I love ILH Capital Improvements Fund”, Iowa Lutheran Auxiliary and others, the unit was renovated into a more tranquil environment. The updated décor has created a calming and healing environment that will reduce the anxiety of patients. New flooring, improved lighting, plants and furniture have all added a calm and comforting environment making the patients feel welcome and at ease. In addition, newly installed windows that are safe for mental health patients are providing natural light which is an important element of good health.

“The changes in the department have been significant,” says Julie Cronk, RN, BS, manager of the Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health Department. “The environment is much more comfortable and inviting, and the staff is happier and proud to be a part of this department.”

By partnering with the Iowa Health Foundation and Iowa Lutheran Hospital Auxiliary on fundraising projects, a new awareness of the behavioral health department’s needs have been communicated and new donors are being directed their way.
