CHOP and Einstein Announce Alliance

We recently announced great news about our alliance with The Children’s Hospitalof Philadelphia (CHOP) that brings together Einstein’s exceptional women’s healthand maternity care and CHOP’s world-class neonatology and pediatric emergencycare to deliver comprehensive maternal and neonatal services at Einstein MedicalCenter Montgomery.

As you know, Einstein has been looking for new ways to partner with others todeliver high-quality care and to expand our reach in the Philadelphia region.Teaming up with CHOP, the nation’s first pediatric hospital, fits with our long-standing commitment to meeting the healthcare needs of women and babies andallows us to develop a variety of exciting programs and services. To meet theneeds of these programs, we will be making enhancements at EMCM, includingadditions to our Labor & Delivery unit and other facility expansions.

When we made the commitment to build Einstein Medical Center Montgomery, itwas our goal to bring high-quality healthcare services to central MontgomeryCounty that weren’t available locally. We’ve done that with regional service linessuch as Bariatrics, CT Surgery, Orthopedics/Spine and Neurosurgery. Our alliancewith CHOP provides another way for us to give patients the best care, close towhere they live.

Next Steps: For this initiative to deliver a seamless patient experience, Einsteinand CHOP will need to work together in clinical service areas such as Obstetrics,Maternal Fetal Medicine, Neonatal Intensive Care and Pediatric Emergency Care.Work on that is already underway, but it will take some time. We expect CHOP tobegin providing neonatal services at Einstein Medical Center Montgomery thisyear.

We will continue to provide you with updates on this initiative. Thank you for yourcontinued commitment and support of Einstein. Your hard work makes a bigdifference to our patients, their family members and the communities we serve.

TAVR Heart Procedure Now Offered at EMCM

Einstein Medical Center Montgomery is nowproviding a new option for high-risk heart patients– transcatheter valve replacement, or TAVR. Thisprocedure is for select patients with severe aorticstenosis who are not candidates for traditionalopen chest surgery. The minimally invasive surgicalprocedure repairs the valve without removing theold damaged valve, similar to a stent placement.Previously, patients needing the procedure had totravel outside of central Montgomery County.

During this procedure, a biological heart valve(sourced from a cow) is inserted into the aorta throughthe leg or the chest using a catheter and a balloon.The new stented, prosthetic valve functions like anormal, healthy valve as soon as the inflated balloonthat moves it into place is removed from the patient.The benefits of TAVR include a small incision, fasterrecovery, and less pain and discomfort for the patient.

Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular heartdisease in the U.S. Without treatment, severe casesmay result in death. Approximately 30 percent ofpatients with aortic stenosis are considered high risk.

Einstein Healthcare Network’s Cardiothoracic Surgeryteam was the first to provide transcatheter aortic valvereplacement in Philadelphia.

EMCM Employee Honored as “Veteran of Influence“

Tom Gaylets, Jr., AssistantVice President, Nurse andManager of theInterventional Platform atEinstein Medical CenterMontgomery, has beennamed one of the GreaterPhiladelphia region’s 2016“Veterans of Influence“ by the Philadelphia BusinessJournal.

For Gaylets, love of country and respect for all those whoserved in the U.S. armed services are deeply ingrained.His father was captured during the Korean War andspent two and a half years as a prisoner of war. Theexperience made Gaylets, Sr. a devout patriot, thankfulfor the freedoms and abundance of his country, and hebecame an activist on behalf of veterans. Inspired by hisfather, Gaylets, Jr. joined the U.S. Marine Corps afterhigh school and then went to nursing school. TheAmerican flag that now flies outside EinsteinMontgomery belonged to his dad.

Gaylets, Jr. has found several ways to honor hispatriotism in the context of his career, by creating twoprograms at EMCM to recognize military veterans. Everyveteran who’s an inpatient receives a large, oval magnetdecorated with an American Flag and stating “Thank Youfor Your Service“ that is placed on the hospital doorframe. “Anyone walking by will see it and may expressgratitude or engage the veteran in conversation,“Gaylets says.

In addition, veterans who come in for a diagnostic orsurgical procedure at EMCM receive white caps coveredwith American flags instead of the standard issue bluecaps given to other patients.

“My goal is for patients to have the best experience theycan while providing the best quality medical care,“ saysGaylets. “Although every patient at EMCM is important,veterans risked their lives for our country. We’re treatingthem special and we want to honor them and see themdo well.“

EMCM Chief Operating Officer Beth Duffy commentsthat Gaylets’ programs have been well received. “Mydad was a veteran of World War II and was always veryproud of the fact that he served his country,“ she notes.“I just feel like anything we can do to recognizeindividuals who take on that responsibility is somethingthat’s both heartwarming and greatly appreciated bythem. We’re proud that Tom is being singled out for hisefforts on their behalf.“

An acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune SYstem, The DAISY Foundation was formed in November 1999, by the family of J. Patrick Barneswho died at age 33 of complications of IdiopathicThrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP). The nursing carePatrick received when hospitalized profoundlytouched his family, who established The DAISYFoundation in his honor. The DAISY Award For Extraordinary Nurses was piloted at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, whose nurses cared for Patrick during the last weeks of his life. The goal of the program is to ensure that nurses know how deserving they are of our society’s profound respectfor the education, training, brainpower, and skill theyput into their work, and especially for the caring withwhich they deliver their care.

Koki Mulinga works the night shift onTower 6. Her caring actions and clinicalpractice excellence impacted both mylife and that of my family. I have been anurse for 30 years and at Einstein for ashort time now. Being a patient is avery unfamiliar and frightening role for me. From themoment this nurse began caring for me, it was apparentthat she “lives“ the Einstein Caring Science Practice Model.The first time she met me she warmly introduced herself,explained what I could expect and impressively “managedup“ her team members. She spoke of the great RN andTech team with whom she worked on Tower 6 and thecaring presence of her manager. During her individual timewith me, she was so caring and compassionate. When I wasin pain, she acknowledged my fear in a way that demonstratedan authentic connection. I felt like I was her only patientwhen she was with me, which made me feel reassured andsafe. She consistently demonstrated expert clinical skill andher accountability to assure quality and safety.

Despite me being a nurse for so many years, Koki did notassume I was comfortable or that I knew the rationale formedical surgical interventions. I was so thankful for thisbecause my background is OB nursing. She showed meeach medication so I could participate in the verificationprior to administration and engaged me in my plan of careusing the communication board.

Koki’s commitment to the relationships she builds ispalpable. As a nurse and a patient, I felt comfortable andsafe in her care; but I wasn’t the only one. During mysecond night, my eldest daughter was visiting. When Kokientered the room, she recalled a conversation she and Ihad the night before. She immediately greeted mydaughter and said to her, “Your mom is so proud of youand she knows how you and your sisters worry. She isdoing better.“ My daughter later commented on Koki’swarmth and kindness.

I am proud to be a member of Einstein’s nursingdepartment and wanted everyone to know that Koki setsour “caring“ bar as high as it should be.

Nomination submitted by a colleague who was a patient

Maureen Wittman, BSN, RN, MICU

My brother, Thomas Flanagan, was admitted to EinsteinMICU on February 24th. He was unconscious and on lifesupport when he arrived after a choking accident. Tommywas the youngest of six children in our family and wasaffected with several disabilities, including Down’ssyndrome, cerebral palsy and epilepsy.

If Tommy had been conscious when he arrived at MICU,

the staff would have gotten to know this man of 55, anddespite the fact that he never had speech, they would haverecognized his mellow and sweet personality.

All of the staff at Einstein - nurses, doctors, attendants, x-ray techs - were all exceptional. To me, Maureen Wittmanstood above the crowd because of her quiet competence,her intelligence, her patience, and her kindness.

After explaining an entire scenario to my brother Frank andme, she would repeat the entire thing on the phone to mysister, Pat, in Florida. But most importantly, she took care ofTommy. She did what was necessary, but also went theextra mile: one day, she cleaned Tommy’s ears. That mayseem like a simple thing, but I was very touched by thatbecause in regard to an unconsciouspatient, it was very much a gesture ofrespect for Tommy, and something I’msure made him feel more clean andcomfortable.

Maureen attended to Tommy in thelast three days of his life. She was therein the operating room when he wasprepped for organ donation, waitingpatiently in the cold O.R., even though I believe her shiftwas over. Tommy continued to breathe on his own after thetube was removed and was sent back to his room.

Maureen was there when he took his last breath, and thereto offer her condolences to me and my family.

After eight days of looking at my brother in the bed,hooked up to life support, it was very difficult to get thatpicture out of my head. However, I now have a picture inmy head of Tommy, tall, strong, and healthy, happilywalking away from his pain. But the picture of Maureen’sbeautiful face - I shall never forget. Maureen personifiesthe true nature of what a nurse is and brings the professionher talent, intelligence, patience, and kindness. Thank you,Maureen, for the loving care you gave our brother.

I love her (Stephanie) because she is good-hearted. If Ineed something (bedpan or help with my meals dueto tremors) she is always there to help me. She givesme my medications on time. She helps me in thebathroom, which is new to me; she never makes mefeel ashamed when it comes to intimate bathroomactivities. She gives me encouragement and support.Stephanie is always happy and cheerful and goes outof her way to make me feel special.

Patricia Schuman, RN; EMCM Pat forms meaningful connectionswith all of her patients and familieson the NICU. Her priority is to teachwhenever an opportunity arises. Notonly does Pat teach her co-workersbut she also explains everything toher parents in the easiest termspossible. Her commitment toputting the needs of the patients and families first isadmired by her co-workers, who learn so much fromher.

Recently Pat had a patient – a baby that was about topass. There are never words that can comfort a motherlosing a child. Mom and dad were crying at thebedside and Pat asked if they were people of a certainfaith. Mom stated that they did not have a specific faith butthey believed themselves to be children of God. Patgave them the option to baptize the baby if it wouldcomfort them. After the baby passed, mom stated thatwithout Pat she would not have been able to acceptthe loss. Pat helped them understand that the babywas her angel and would always watch over them.

Nomination submitted by a colleague

Karen Batot, BSN, RN,CEN; EMCM Karen’s dedication to the 4th flooris beyond compare. She shares herknowledge, skills and timegenerously as well as her vastmental library of fun, obscure facts!

Karen is honest and straightforward and she makesherself and her good advice available to all of us, dayor night. She never misses an opportunity to teach.

Karen is pro-nursing and she empowers all of us tostrive for more and make positive changes. Karen hasa unique ability to see what others may miss: a newface with wide eyes and a panicked look, anexperienced nurse looking weary, a PCA feelingfrustrated, and a glassy-eyed monitor tech needing abreak. She will never just walk by. She will stop, have aconversation and leave having made a difference.Karen brings a priceless gift to this floor, this facilityand the nursing profession.

Nomination submitted by acolleague

Mark Menapace, BSN, RN,CEN; EMCM As a new-to-practice nurse, startinga job can be frightening andintimidating, especially in a settingin which I did not have any clinical experience.Although I had previous pre-hospital experience, Iknew that being an ER nurse would present a differentset of challenges. A preceptor can make or break thestart of a new graduate’s career. I was very fortunate tohave had Mark Menapace get my career off to a greatstart.

Mark immediately took me under his wing and taughtme an enormous amount. I was not just an orientee tohim; he took the time to get to know me. I felt asthough I learned more in the three months I was withhim than the two years in nursing school. He madesure to teach me in a manner that never made me feelas though I wasn’t succeeding or as if my intelligencewas subpar. He did an amazing job of telling me whenI did a great job and ensuring that I was givenrecognition when I deserved it. The aspect of histeaching that impressed me the most was how muchhe was able to help build my confidence and skillswithout sacrificing any aspect of patient care. Mark hasset me up for success, built up my confidence, anddemonstrated superior emergency nursing. He is thetype of nurse I hope to not only become, but maintainthroughout my career. I am extremely thankful for hisknowledge, guidance, and the standard he set for myemergency nursing career.
