2016 Annual Foundation Report A letter from the foundation directors
Dear friends,As a donor to Samaritan Health Services, you are part of a powerful group — 7,000 strong — that sees the
value in supporting local health care. In 2015, donors gave over $5.6 million toward programs and projects
throughout Samaritan, all of which will stay in our communities to help improve care for you, your friends
and neighbors.
Please enjoy just a few examples in this report of the ways your contributions have helped others— from
practical needs like an orthopedic surgery table, to the extraordinary, like a legacy gift to support the
Samaritan Evergreen Hospice House. Each and every gift has a special story and makes a profound impact.
You’ll also read of several instances where donors found creative ways to improve health care in their local
community, beyond what we could have imagined on our own. It is an honor to partner with remarkable
people, like you, who are committed to making a difference here in our special part of the world.
At Samaritan we are proud to offer access to innovative treatments and compassionate support
services for patients and their loved loves.
In health care, we are in the business of caring for people and we couldn’t do it without you.
Thank you.

connected to fetal monitors
while in the hospital. The
monitor keeps track of baby’s
heartbeat and the strength of
mom’s contractions. But the
wires often kept women in their
beds, or required nurses to
disconnect them to let patients
walk, and then reconnect them
for periodic monitoring. Neither
situation was ideal.
But the Albany General Hospital
Foundation has an equipment
fund that lets departments
make requests for equipment
that will benefit patients and
employees. Marge Tomcal,
Women’s Center manager,
Telemetry purchase improves fetal monitor function for pregnant patients
requested two telemetry units
last year that would allow for
remote fetal monitoring with no
connecting wires.
“Patients love it,” said Tomcal.
“They like being able to get up
and go to the bathroom or take
a walk down the hallway while
still being on the monitor. It’s
also much better for the staff.”
Of the two units the foundation
funded, one is permanently
placed in the surgical cesarean
section room. This removes any
wires that may be in the way
of the patient or between staff
that could be a safety issue. The

Tomcal has requested two
additional telemetry units so
more patients can benefit.
“It has added so much to
patient satisfaction and staff
satisfaction,” said Tomcal. “Our
department is very grateful
that the foundation was willing
to invest in this equipment.
It’s a blessing that they are
so involved and really, truly
dedicated to seeing our
community and our patients
well cared for.”

W hen Samaritan Evergreen Hospice
House opened in Albany in 2012, it
became one of only three hospice houses in
Oregon. Because of its central location, the
hospice house serves patients across the
entire western half of the state.
With the incredible support of the
community, the hospice house was funded
entirely through philanthropy. And now,
another community member has ensured
the continuing operation of Samaritan
Evergreen Hospice House for those
who need it.
Lorraine Carter, an Albany resident since
1955, recently died. But the legacy of
Lorraine and her husband, Kenneth Carter,
who died in 2004, lives on in the form
of a generous legacy gift for Samaritan
Evergreen Hospice House. The fund helps
cover the cost of maintaining and operating
the house and grounds to keep it peaceful
and tranquil for patients in their last stages
of life.
The Carters were local business owners.
Lorraine was an active volunteer in the
community and involved in the Samaritan
Albany General Hospital Auxiliary. She was
an Albany General Hospital Foundation
board member and also financially
supported previous hospital
building projects.
Jim Decker, a family friend who grew up on
Lorraine’s street and later briefly worked for
the couple, remembers the generosity the
Carters showed to everyone.
“They did not have children, so... they sort of
swept us up,” he remembers.
“After my mom passed away, she was
like a second mom to me. They were as
ethical, honest and hardworking as any two
people could be. It’s amazing what they
accomplished, and they deserve everything
they got out of life and thereafter.”
The hospice house has proven to be an
effective project for the Carters to invest in.
There’s a strong need for the hospice house,
and the 12-bed facility served more than
540 patients in 2015.
“Lorraine really helped to get the hospice
house built, and she decided she also
wanted to help sustain it,” said Jeff Larson,
Albany General Hospital Foundation director.
“An estate gift like the Carters left can make
a huge difference in patient care and in
the community.”
Larson works regularly with donors who
want to make a lasting impact on health
care in the community through an estate gift.
“Whether your estate is large or small, you
can do some significant things for charity,”
Larson said. “It’s possible to leave a gift for
important projects without impacting your
heirs at all.”
“Lorraine was passionate about the hospice
house and the people involved,” recalls
Decker. “That’s really what drove her.”
And now, thanks to her passion, the hospice
house will sustain far into the future.

C aregivers in the hospital
work in an intense, high
stress environment where there
is little room for error, and a
mistake can have significant
consequences.
The Progressive Care Unit
management team at Good
Samaritan Regional Medical
Center could see that staff
needed a space to step away
from the pressures of the unit.
While researching how other
facilities managed this same
situation, the team came across
the idea for a relaxation room.
“Sometimes when the units
get so intense, you need to go
away and take a break,” said
Janell Anderson, manager of
Funding for relaxation roombenefi ts caregivers
the Oncology and Critical Care
units. “You know that when you
come back everything will be
fine but it’s hard to find a place
to decompress.”
While the departments have
break rooms, those are often
busy and full of people eating
and talking.
The management team talked
with the Good Samaritan
Hospital Foundation to see
if there was a way to gather
funds for a relaxation room.
Shortly after that, the husband
of a longtime nurse who had
recently died also visited the
foundation. He wanted to make
a donation to the hospital
in memory of his wife for
something that would improve

life for the other nurses. The
idea was shown to him, and
the Sue Riley Relaxation Room
became a reality.
The room is fully furnished
with a massage chair and table,
heated amethyst biotherapy mat,
essential oils, aromatherapy and
yoga mats with bolsters. Staff
also receives training in stress
relief measures such as Reiki,
acupressure and the importance
of self-care.
The room is located in the
Critical Care Unit, but anyone in
the hospital is welcome to use it.
“Since we opened the room last
year, it’s used all throughout the
day and night,” said Anderson.
“Space is at a premium in
the hospital and we had to
rearrange a few things to get
the room in place. But for what
it does, it’s well worth
the space.”

L ast spring, as the plants in Maxine
Rainbolt’s garden began to bud, she
found herself resting in bed with a mild cold.
But after several days Maxine’s cold didn’t
get better, and one morning she woke up
completely unable to get out of bed.
Her husband Mike called 911 and she was
taken to Good Samaritan Regional Medical
Center. Maxine was diagnosed with an
extremely rare ischemic spinal cord injury —
bleeding within her spine — and rushed
to surgery.
Maxine’s surgery was successful, but the
damage to her spinal cord left her paralyzed
from the chest down. She spent 10 days
recovering at Good Sam, followed by six
weeks at an inpatient rehabilitation center
in Portland. A wheelchair was now a
permanent part of her life.
During Maxine’s recovery, Mike focused
on seeing to the tasks that would make
his wife’s transition easier. He traded their
car for a new wheelchair-accessible van,
scheduled contractors to adapt their home
for Maxine’s wheelchair, and even arranged
for a family friend to adopt a Golden
Retriever the couple had recently taken in.
Update on the Cancer Center
Personal crisis inspires gift to community
“It takes very special people to see a
need in the community during a time
of personal turmoil... The Rainbolts
are those very special people.”
The last task for Mike was to ensure that
Maxine could continue rehabilitation
once she returned home, but the closest
equipment was in Portland.
Maxine needed a functional electrical
stimulation bike, which is designed to
help patients with paralysis, weakness
and spasticity by increasing muscle tone
and blood flow, and maintaining range of
motion in patients being treated for multiple
sclerosis and those recovering from strokes
and spinal cord injuries, among
other diagnoses.
Mike began arranging for the special bicycle
to be delivered to their residence when
he was struck with a thought: “There was
nothing like this in the community, and
we had the chance to share the bike with
others,” he said.
The couple worked with Good Samaritan
Hospital Foundation to donate funds
to help purchase a bike that others in
the community could also use. Their
contribution was matched with additional
donations to complete the purchase, and
the bike is now located at Samaritan
Physical Rehabilitation in Corvallis.
“It takes very special people to see a need
in the community during a time of personal
turmoil,” said rehabilitation manager Shawn
Johnson. “The Rainbolts are those very
special people.”
Four therapists are now fully trained on the
new equipment and patients of all ages
are benefitting from the stimulation and
movement the bike offers. At any given time,
there are two to three patients who actively
use the bike for rehabilitation, as well as
“graduated” patients who still see a benefit
from ongoing use.
More than a year after her diagnosis,
Maxine continues to see a physical
therapist to improve her functional mobility
and maintain muscle mass. She remains
encouraged by the strides of improvement
and she enjoys the thought that, through
the new bike, she and Mike were able to
help others in their own time of need.
“You’ve got to make your mark,” reflected
Maxine. “You’ve got to give people hope.”

I n January 2016, the Samaritan Pastega
Regional Cancer Center officially opened
its doors. The new space offers sophisticated
technology and treatments in a warm and
welcoming environment – and most importantly,
it is close to home for residents of the mid-
Willamette Valley and central Oregon coast.
The cancer center highlights the incredible
generosity of the individuals and businesses in
our region with the philanthropic support from
donors for the new center totaling $12 million.
“The mission of the Mario and Alma
Pastega Family Foundation is to lend
a helping hand by giving back to the
communities that have supported our
successful businesses. Our family is
privileged to play a role in making the
Samaritan Pastega Regional Cancer
Center a reality. Through this, as well
as other important projects and
programs we support, we aspire to
cultivate a passion for giving back in
the next generation.”

F or newborn babies,
arriving in the world can
be a surprising — and chilling
— experience.
The Lebanon Community
Hospital Foundation recently
purchased an infant warmer
for the Girod Birth Center at
Samaritan Lebanon Community
Hospital. This is the second
warmer the foundation has
purchased for the birth center,
and staff and patients both
appreciate the equipment.
“These warmers are our
workhorses,” said Anne
Simmons, manager of the birth
center. “They receive all of our
babies who cannot immediately
be with their mother.”
For newborns, maintaining
Birth center warmer not just for the cool kids
a normal body temperature
is more than just keeping
comfortable. Expending
precious energy to regulate
body temperature can affect
breathing, heart rate and
general ability to survive. This
is especially important for
premature infants, who usually
have less body fat.
After so many months of being
kept cozy in the womb, the

warmer helps the baby adjust
to life on the outside. A sensor
is placed on the infant’s skin,
and the warmer will increase
the baby’s temperature by
warming the infant should its
temperature drop below normal.
In addition to helping warm the
newborn after birth until mom
is able to snuggle, the new
equipment has suction, air and
oxygen capabilities.
“For infants who are not stable
on room air, a little extra oxygen
can be quickly provided. We
may also use the suction feature
if the infant has a lot of mucus
when it’s first born,”
Simmons said.
The warmer has an X-ray
plate built into the bottom so
newborns can stay comfortable
if further testing is needed.
“Staff are happy to have this
equipment,” Simmons said. “It’s
the perfect platform to work
on the babies who need a little
extra help, and holds many of
the supplies the nurses need to
help the baby acclimate to
the world.
“The foundation has generously
donated money for equipment
and other needs within the
birth center. We love that these
are purchases that help our
staff provide better care for
our patients. We’re thankful
for the hard work that the
foundation does to provide us
this expensive equipment.”

T he orthopedic clinic at Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital
was recently able to purchase a new power surgery table,
thanks to an allocation from the foundation. The table can raise and
lower, especially important when patients have troublesome joints
or are on crutches.
“Previously, we had a tall wooden table,” said Kim Vaughan, manager
of the clinic. “But we had so many people with non-weight bearing
fractures, or elderly patients who couldn’t climb up on
the table.”
The new table goes low enough that patients can easily slide on and
then be raised for examination or casting.
Funds for equipment that improves patient care or employee
satisfaction are available through the Lebanon Community Hospital
Foundation, and are possible because of the annual Samaritan
Employee Caring Campaign.
Once a year, the foundation at each Samaritan hospital asks
employees for a donation to support the work in its community,
beyond what the hospital can provide out of its operations budget.
In 2015, Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital and clinic
employees raised more than $152,000 to reinvest in projects and
services locally.
“Most of my clinics have a 100 percent participation rate in the
employee caring campaign,” said Vaughan, who manages six clinics
in Lebanon. “It’s so nice for the money to come back and benefit
patients in a way that employees can see how their donations
help others.”

Sherrie Flinn, Samaritan’s hospice volunteer
coordinator on the coast. “We rely on these
funds. Equally important, we couldn’t do
what we do without our volunteers.”
Flinn oversees dozens of volunteers who are
involved in every stage of hospice care.
“Many of our volunteers have already
experienced hospice with others in their
own lives prior to becoming a volunteer,”
Flinn said. “They saw the benefit and felt
like they wanted to contribute. Most of the
volunteers I’ve had have felt compelled
when they saw how appreciative a family
was and how powerful it was to have
someone sit with loved ones and provide
other supportive care.”
Volunteers give something just as valuable
to hospice as money; they give their
time. From office support to respite care
for weary caregivers and a comforting
presence as a patient dies, volunteers help
in many ways.

T he hospice program at Samaritan North
Lincoln Hospital helps patients live on
their own terms in the last few months of
life, working closely with a steadfast band
of employees and volunteers. The hospice
team provides education about the complex
process of dying, pain management,
symptom control, respite for caregivers and
bereavement support for families, all in the
familiar environment of the patient’s home.
To do all this and more, hospice relies on
foundation funds to help. The funds may
be used to buy a gas card or bus ticket for
a family member who can’t afford to travel
to say goodbye. It pays for relief from a
massage therapist for the patient with
swollen limbs or aches and pains from their
illness. It pays for a musician to provide a
soothing atmosphere for the patient who
needs help to relax.
“Hospice depends on donations to cover
things we consider quality of life issues —
things that support the family and patient
but are not part of medical funding,” said
But hospice is more than just the sum of
its parts. Together, staff, volunteers and
donors create a gentle peace that surrounds
patients and families during a difficult and
often chaotic time.
“You have to have a loving, caring heart to be
a part of hospice,” Flinn said. “I always tell
my volunteers who sit with dying patients
that I couldn’t do what they do. I really am
in awe that there are human beings who are
willing to put themselves in these situations,
and do them over and
over again.“
Hospice donors understand that their
money isn’t being used to heal the patient’s
physical body. Instead, it helps to bring
together families, cope with pain and grief,
and acknowledge death as a part of life.
Hospice donations bring compassion.
In a world of high-tech medical advances,
the power of compassionate human touch is
perhaps the best comfort.

The SiPap is physiologically more
comfortable for the patient. “If the babies
could talk, they would tell you they like it,”
he said.
Another benefit of the new system is that it
allows the baby to use his or her own lungs
to breathe, which is better for developing
the muscles to function on their own once
the device is removed.
In addition to providing safer care, the SiPap
also helps patients stay close to home.
“If an infant arrives with a breathing problem,
we might normally do a quick intubation and
transfer them to a facility in Portland with
a higher level of care,” Rodgers said.“ This
machine allows us to bridge the gap — to
New equipment enhances care for the smallest patients
For babies who are having trouble
breathing after being born, the SiPap
uses a small mask system to introduce
positive air pressure. This pressure
helps open the baby’s lungs and give
them a little extra oxygen without an
invasive procedure.

N ewborn babies represent a hospital’s
most vulnerable patients, and providing
better care for them is a high priority.
The Pacific Communities Health District
Foundation recently purchased a
Synchronized Inhaled Positive Airway
Pressure unit, or SiPap, for newborn babies
at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital
in Newport. For babies who are having
trouble breathing after being born, the SiPap
uses a small mask system to introduce
positive air pressure. This pressure helps
open the baby’s lungs and give them a little
extra oxygen without an invasive procedure.
Will Rodgers, manager of Cardiopulmonary
and Neurodiagnostics at SPCH, and his staff
of nine are trained on the equipment.
“If at all possible, we don’t want to be poking
kids with things,” Rodgers said. “Previously,
we would need to do an intubation for
newborns who weren’t breathing well. But
with intubation, you are inserting a piece of
steel down the airway and there’s always
the possibility of trauma, or the chance that
you’re introducing a pathogen that could
cause an infection.”
stabilize the patient so then we can help
heal whatever is causing the
breathing problem.”
The technology of the SiPap is reliable and
sensitive, giving alerts to hospital staff any
time a status changes for the infant. It takes
worry off the caregivers to know they will
be notified when anything changes. The unit
also measures a wide range of breathing
values such as apnea or low breath rate.
“The SiPap allows us to more accurately treat
our patients, and that always leads to better
care,” Rodgers said.
“Everybody has a soft spot for the little ones,
and everybody wants them to have the best
treatment in the hospital. This is one way
that we’re taking another step forward in the
way we care for our kids.”

S amaritan’s foundations are always looking for the right project
to help their hospitals provide the best care for patients.
With the recent completion of the Center for Health Education
in Newport, the Pacific Communities Health District Foundation
thought a project centered on “new beginnings” could spark the
right idea. After discussing needs within the OB Department,
foundation director Ursula Marinelli found the right fit: pediatric
training manikins.
“We have a real need for simulation in pediatrics and neonates,
specifically in the emergency room,” said Sarah Cole, Obstetrics
Department manager at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital.
“We don’t have a large pediatric population, but when they do
arrive, staff needs to be ready to act. It’s a high risk, low volume
circumstance. We’re not going to get the experience based on our
volume, so simulation is the best way to keep up the nursing and
provider skills.”
The foundation purchased two interactive manikins for the hospital,
SimNewB and SimJunior.
SimNewB is a realistic newborn baby who turns blue, cries, has an
umbilical cord, and makes breath and heart sounds.
SimJunior is 6 years old, breathes, has bowel sounds and vomits.
Sarah knowledgeably reports he can do anything a real child can do.
He can simulate a variety of scenarios, from a healthy, talking child
to an unresponsive, critical patient with no vital signs.
“There is a general amount of discomfort with pediatric patients
because they’re so much different from adults,”Cole said.“
By running simulations regularly, we’re giving the nurses and
physicians the practice they need to react confidently and quickly.
There’s not a lot of time, especially in the ER, that you can stop and
think about what needs to be done.”
At larger hospitals, there are often pediatric teams devoted entirely
to pediatric care. But in Newport, the same team of physicians and
nurses must do it all.
The new manikins live in the simulation lab in the Center for Health
Education. The lab is available for all Samaritan entities and the
Oregon Coast Community College nursing program to use.
“There are only a few of these pediatric manikins in the state,” Cole
said. “This has opened up a big realm of educational opportunities
for us to share throughout Samaritan and our surrounding areas.”
