The Lives We TouchThrough Faith & Charity
LITTLE COMPANY OF MARY HOSPITAL AND HEALTH CARE CENTERS
here is perhaps no clearer, more direct way to “love thy neighbor”than to help someone who is weakened by illness.
Our donors and volunteers represent diverse cultures, age groups, abilities and life experiences, but they all represent the best of our community.
Many individuals volunteer their time because they feel stronglyabout doing something for those in need. Our senior volunteersshare their own rich life experiences while our youth volunteersdonate their energy and enthusiasm as they look ahead to futuresfilled with promise.We even have animal volunteers, pets that comewith their owners to share their unbridled passion for a scratchbehind the ears and a pat on the head.
Our “walkers for breast cancer” are people who take matters into their own hands. Instead of just saying,“Isn’t that terrible,people are dying of breast cancer”, they call on friends and neighbors for sponsorships, get out their walking shoes and joinhundreds of others to make a statement and make a difference onthat special day.
Our financial donors—including many of our own employees—arepeople who have themselves been rewarded by life. But in return,they choose to share those rewards with others through their giftsof life-saving equipment, facilities and funds.
Whether they give their time, their treasure or their love, our volunteers and donors are working to enhance the quality of care atLittle Company of Mary and the quality of life in our community.

Comprehensive Breast Health CenterA HOLISTIC ATTITUDE
“Most of the time, I have the privilege of giving my patients a very positive scenario. Today, breast cancer is a
highly curable disease, and in the big picture, their lives should not be affected by it.”—Dr. Olga Ivanov
Dr. Olga Ivanov pictured left with Breast Cancer Survivor, Mary O’Connell
Dr. Olga Ivanov is an internationally respected breast surgeon. She holds the distinction
of being the only fellowship-trained female breast surgeon in the southwest Chicago area.
Her patient responsibilities at Little Company of Mary would easily fill anyone’s calendar,
yet the doctor still manages to schedule working trips to her native Ukraine, where she
teaches surgeons the minimally invasive techniques used in the U.S.
Despite all these accomplishments and commitments, Dr. Ivanov insists she chose the
easy path.“Most of the time, I have the privilege of giving my patients a very positive
scenario.Today, breast cancer is a highly curable disease, and in the big picture, their lives
should not be affected by it.This isn’t true for most cancers. So, I usually get to be the
bearer of good news and delivering good news is easy!”
As a breast surgeon and a woman, Dr. Ivanov also finds it easy to empathize with her
patients’ needs and fears. She understands that the breast is intimately tied to a woman’s
sense of femininity.Although her first goal in surgery is to remove the cancer, she also
strives for maximum breast conservation, with tiny, aesthetically pleasing scars and breast
symmetry.As Dr. Ivanov explains,“Many years after I treat a patient—when she can say
she’s a breast cancer survivor—I want her to look in the mirror without seeing any
physical scars. I don’t want my patient to see anything that makes her look back—
only forward.”
Dr. Ivanov’s patients see her as a skilled, respected breast surgeon, and often it isn’t until
years later that they recognize her other great talent, which is her gentle way of nudging
patients toward a positive outlook.Although the doctor admits that attitude is something
intangible, immeasurable, and not yet quantified by scientists, she truly believes in its
power. “The trick in beating cancer of any sort is attitude! If a patient understands what
I’m saying—that it will be okay and we can take care of this problem together—
most of the time the patient does pretty darn good. If, however, a patient gives up at the
beginning, it’s going to be a great challenge to beat that cancer.”
To instill in every patient a positive mindset, Dr. Ivanov spends hours coaching and
educating and encouraging her patients.“Once we achieve a positive outlook, my
expertise, the drugs, the surgical techniques, the therapies, they all have a clear path
to do their jobs.”
In the final analysis, it’s a pretty safe bet that breast cancer patients do not agree with
Dr. Ivanov’s assessment that her job is easy. Eventually though, patients come around.
After making their journey through surgery with Dr. Ivanov, and after the doctor’s
administered her encouraging prescription for a positive mindset, things do get easier—
especially as they cross over from breast cancer patient to breast cancer survivor!
Dr. Ivanov

Tears and laughter, joy and sorrow …
it’s a celebration of life and a day of
remembrance! Each year the Annual
Beverly Breast Cancer Walk attracts
more women, men, families, and friends
to come out on Mother’s Day to raise
funds for the Integrated Therapy
Department (ITD) at Little Company
of Mary’s Cancer Center. The walk
supports ITD’s mission is to provide
free educational programs, support
groups and services to the community’s
cancer patients and survivors.
What started with only 30 people seven
years ago has grown into an event that
draws the entire community together,
creates vital awareness, and involves over
5,000 walkers who raised more than
$150,000 this year.
Through their tireless efforts the
walk leadership team, Carol Moriarty,
Lisa O’Brien, Nancy Mulcahy,
Margie Sweeney, Maureen Mulryan and
Colleen Carol have influenced thousands
of others to follow their lead including
the event’s generous sponsor,
Beverly Bank and Trust.

Why would a cancer patient be goingto a hospital for a massage,a facial and a pedicure?
It’s the brainchild of Vicky Weis a former spa owner who
lost her own mother, Faye, to cancer in 1995.Vicky realized
while caring for her, that the healing touch was an important
part of her mother’s care that wasn’t available in most
hospital settings.
Through pampering spa and holistic treatments that may
include massage, pedicures, Reiki, facials, aromatherapy and
others—cancer patients can feel reinvigorated, cared for, and
loved during the challenge of living with
illness and chemotherapy.
Faye’s Light is a service offered four days a
month as an adjunct to the Integrative
Therapy Department. It is free to anyone in
the community who is dealing with cancer
and entirely funded by donations.
According to Vicky,“When this started, I was
simply donating my own time because I
wanted to give something back. But as I
realized how great the need was, I began
organizing volunteers and raising money.”
Faye’s Light benefits the patient in mind, body,
and spirit and creates a wonderful sense of
community. As patients wait for their next spa service, they
share their journeys, allowing therapists and fellow patients the
opportunity to better understand what they are going
through. It allows patients to escape from the fear and anxiety
of their disease—if only for an hour or two every week.

CUDDLERSA Touching Experience for All

The Cuddling Program, now in its 21st year at Little Company of Mary, is part of the
Marist High School Senior Service Program, with the senior year religion class.

Clinically speaking, the human skin includes more than four million sensory receptors that
receive information related to touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.This information
moves to the brain for processing and reaction. On an emotional and far more enjoyable
level, we humans love to touch and be touched by other humans. Even the simplest hug can
produce a profoundly nurturing contentment.The Marist High School Cuddling Volunteers,
who visit the Little Company of Mary nursery daily to hold and pamper newborns, know all
about the power of touch.
The Cuddling Program, now in its 21st year at Little Company of Mary, is part of the
Marist High School Senior Service Program, with the senior year religion class. Each day,
students in the Senior Service Program drive to the Hospital, sign in, and head off to
their assigned area, with student assignments rotating each quarter. Student arrival and
departure times are staggered, Monday through Friday, 8AM to 2PM.
“The Cuddling Program is enormously valuable for everyone involved,” says Carol
Martinez, Little Company of Mary Hospital Manager of Volunteer Resources.“The
students are an enormous help to the nursery nursing staff. As for the babies, it’s
impossible to touch and soothe them too much.They are used to being enveloped in
warmth while inside the womb, so cuddling these infants is a comforting and familiar
feeling for them. From the students’ perspective, this is a wonderful way to see first hand
how life begins, and how a simple touch brings such comfort.”
The Cuddling Program, Martinez adds, is an annual favorite.“At the end of the school
year, we ask for student feedback. And every year we get the same response—the
Cuddle Program and the Adult Day Center Program are the two favorites.These areas
seem to really fulfill the students’ need to give and share.”
There’s no denying that the student cuddlers give invaluable comfort to the Hospital’s
youngest patients, but a quick description of the students’ responsibilities explains why
this is an annual favorite—and an enviable job to have.“The students come into the
nursery scrubbed and wearing appropriate sterile garments, then they sit comfortably in
a rocking chair,” Martinez explains.“A nurse hands each student an infant and they quietly
rock the baby. You can see them relax and let go of school pressures.They sit and rock
and give all they have to this little baby.”
So, while cuddling may not be a scientific word found in scholarly medical journals, the
results for cuddler and “cuddlee” are undeniably real. Those four million sensory
receptors in baby and student are busy sending calm, tranquil messages to respective
brains—and life is wonderful.

LITTLE COMPANY OF MARY HOSPITAL AND HEALTH CARE CENTERS
uring fiscal year 2006, Little Company of Mary Hospital and Health Care
Centers (Little Company of Mary) continued the tradition of community
service begun by our founders and sponsors, the Sisters of the Little Company
of Mary. The Sisters believe that men and women are created with human
needs, which include the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of health.
Little Company of Mary continually strives to be an extension of Christ’s
mission of loving mercy by ministering to those multifaceted health needs.
Over the past year, Little Company of Mary continued to provide health care
access to the community by offering programs for health improvement to
populations at risk, exercising appropriate stewardship over its resources and
supporting community organizations sharing similar goals. Highlights of the
2006 community benefit endeavors include:
• Providing more than $12.9MM of uncompensated care to those covered
by government-sponsored indigent health care.
• Providing nearly $2.5MM of charity care to patients who were unable
to pay all or a portion of their hospital bills.
• Providing pre-natal and obstetrical care to government-sponsored
indigent healthcare recipients in our Obstetrics Clinic.
• Providing primary and specialty care to older adults in our
Washington Heights medical facility, called the Halsted Medical Center.
• Providing health education and promotion to the participants in
our community health programs by reaching 48,394 participants to
our FY 2006 programs.
• Providing a myriad of additional community benefits through programs
such as Meals On Wheels, Cancer Education and Wellness, Physician
Match (physician referral service) and Mission Driven Services.

Building a HealthierCommunity—One Day at a Time
Joan Murphy’s first career at Little
Company of Mary was in critical care
nursing, until one day a light bulb
went on. Many of the patients she saw
coming in and out of ICU might have
prevented their medical crisis had
they made a few lifestyle changes.This
realization grew into a passion, and
eventually the hospital asked Joan to
move in the direction of wellness.
Today Joan remains passionate about
wellness, now serving as Little Company
of Mary’s Director of Community Health.
She works out of the Hospital’s two
Health Education Centers, one within the
Hospital itself and one in the Westfield
Chicago Ridge Mall. At both Centers,
Chicago’s Southwest community members
find educational classes and screening
programs dedicated to preventing disease
through healthy living.
Guiding patients toward healthy physical,
emotional, and spiritual habits is
important to Joan, and making these
habits obtainable is top priority.“When I
hear someone say ‘I can do that!’ I know
this person is headed for a healthier life.
And I know it’s been a good day.”
Joan MurphyDirector ofCommunityHealth
Knowledge is PowerThe Little Company of Mary Diabetes Center is all about education, providing outpatients in the community with valuableinsight into treatments, nutrition, fitness, medications, and glucose monitoring.There’s also ample opportunity for familymembers to receive the support they need. It all comes downto helping diabetics manage this remarkably manageable disease.
One of the Center’s powerful educational tools is their annualDiabetes Fest, directed by Debbie Murray, R.N. Coordinatorof the Diabetes Center. While managing the Fest is in her jobdescription, Murray is also passionately connected to the event.“My mother died at 50 from complications connected to diabetes and thankfully, stories like hers don’t have to happenany more.That’s how far we’ve come! When you combinetoday’s medications with proper nutrition and a good exerciseplan, you can postpone or minimize the disease’s effects.But for this to happen, we have to get the word out. Patientsplay a big part in this disease.When they make informed decisions, diabetes is absolutely manageable.”
And the Diabetes Center does get the word out—especiallyduring the Fest. Held in November, during National DiabetesMonth, entrance is free and fest participants include pertinentLittle Company of Mary Hospital departments as well as outside
vendors, such as insulin makers, glucose meter companies, insulin pump manufacturers,insurance companies, health equipment companies, and even Wal-Mart, a major prescription resource. Outside vendors pay a fee to participate, and the money helps support Center patients without the financial means to cover individualized education.
Is it worth all the effort to pull this annual event together? Murray responds with aresounding absolutely! “When people understand how diabetes affects the body and whatlifestyle changes they should make, the positive results are huge! Knowing how to controlthe disease empowers the patient. It puts the patient in charge instead of the disease.Also, an informed patient learns that this is not the debilitating disease our parents suffered through. Once fear is removed, the door swings open for intelligent action.”
In the United States alone, it is estimated that there are 14 million diagnosed people living with diabetes and 6 million people are undiagnosed. Can the Little Company ofMary Diabetes Center educate all 20 million people? If Murray gets her way, they will!“Education is vital! I participate in as many health fairs as possible—because that’s howyou reach people. Here at the hospital, we’re determined to reach as many people as we can!”

daVINCIThe Picture of HealthLittle Company of Mary acquired thedaVinci® Surgical System in 2005 and aftersuccessfully performing 58 procedures in2006, Hospital staff and patients agree:reality far exceeds expectation.
The system, which unites state-of-the-artrobotic technology with groundbreakingcomputer innovation, allows surgeons toperform complex procedures throughdime-size incisions. Used exclusively in2006 for prostate cancer treatment and inparticular for prostate removal, LittleCompany of Mary expanded daVinci procedures to include gynecological myomectomies, or removal of uterinefibroids, as well as some hysterectomyapplications.
“The daVinci surgicalrobot has revolutionized not only prostatic surgery, but surgicaltechnique ingeneral…Having performed thousands of surgical proceduresover the last fifteenyears, I can confidently
say that I have never seen the anatomy moreclearly than I do when I perform a daVinciprostatectomy. This translates into quicker recovery times, and drastically reduced incontinence and impotence rates. The fact thatLittle Company of Mary has embraced this technology now has allowed me to offer state-of-the-art surgical care right here in the community.”

The Little Company of Mary Endoscopy Center officially opened
its doors in summer 2006, following three years of planning,
research, and construction.The result is a state-of-the-art facility
that sets the precedent in cutting edge diagnostic tools and
treatments for conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux
disease, colon cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, motility problems, as well as routine
colonoscopies.What’s amazing, however, is how the Center manages to maintain a
comfortable, soothing, high-touch environment amidst all this high-tech.
Perhaps this most welcome outcome occurs because the Center stands for real people
as much as it does progressive medical treatment. Center physicians and nurses helped
design the facility. After all, they have the double advantage of understanding innovative
technology as well as how patients feel about endoscopic procedures.
A significant portion of the funding for the new Center came from Little Company
of Mary’s Employee Giving Campaign.Through this program, Hospital employees make
donations to raise funds for valuable medical services. Hospital employees stepped up in
a big way, pledging more than $100,000 for the Center. On an even grander scale, these
generous employees ultimately improved the southwest Chicago community’s access to
innovative procedures.
“Much of the Center is designed to help patients relax,” says Jane Sullivan, RN,Vice
President of Little Company of Mary’s Patient Care Services. Among the many
convenient details is the Center’s location—close to it’s own designated parking area.
This means no more navigating hospital corridors to find the Endoscopy Lab. Increasing
the number of patient procedure rooms from three to six is another significant update
that translates to faster service so that our patients are on their way in a reasonable
time period.
The Endoscopy Center provides plenty of unexpected amenities, such as wireless
Internet access for laptops.As Sullivan explains, the reception area’s little extras are for
patients as well as family members.“Our patients need a ride home after their procedure,
so someone comes with them and we really want to make their experience a pleasant
one as well.”
Although we believe we have the best current medical and technological advances
possible, research into improvements is already underway.“It’s hard to believe, but just
thirty years ago many of the painless outpatient procedures we perform today required
an operation and an extended hospital stay.” Sullivan explains.“We continuously review
the Center’s status, always watching for improvements in technology and equipment.
It’s a very exciting time to be in health care.”

The Lives We TouchThrough healing
LITTLE COMPANY OF MARY HOSPITAL AND HEALTH CARE CENTERS
hen someone’s health is challenged by disease or other circumstances, the
patient wants to know that smart, highly trained individuals are prepared
to help them using state-of-the-art equipment, medicines and technology.
However, it is vital to the healing process that everything possible is done
to protect the patient’s physical and emotional comfort as well.
At Little Company of Mary, healing is our mission. However, healing is
incomplete unless the patient is feeling well!
Concern for every aspect of a patient’s well-being has been one of our
hallmarks for more than 77 years. In our practice of medicine, we understand
that healing is not just about fixing what is wrong with the body, it involves the
experience of the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. In line with this
understanding is our theme and goal for the future—In Pursuit of Pain-Free
Health Care.
While most medical procedures are accompanied by a certain level
of discomfort, new technologies, treatments, and ways of caring for individuals
are helping to minimize pain.What’s more, by simplifying treatments, providing
for more outpatient procedures, increasing access to our facilities, streamlining
billing procedures, and increasing the home-like comforts of all our facilities,
we make access to care easier, more comfortable and more convenient.

Palliative care is an interdisciplinary program that aims to prevent
and relieve suffering as well as to improve the quality of life for
patients with chronic disease and/or life-threatening illness.
The Palliative Care Service at Little Company of Mary Hospital,
one of the first few in the area, has been operational since June
2006 and has already served more than 50 patients and their
families. Palliative care combines a variety of resources and
personnel, including new Medical Director of Palliative Care,
Dr. Kimberly Battle-Miller, Lisa Pendergast, R.N., a nursing
specialist, two dedicated social workers Maureen Murphy and
Nancy Doherty, and a chaplain, Jo Ellen Skrip. Together they form
a coordinated team that functions to serve patients and their
families within a six-bed unit in the 3 North Pavillion and
throughout the hospital as requested by the family or the
Primary Care Physician.
According to Dr. Kimberly Battle-Miller, “Patients with chronic
illnesses who utilize the Palliative Care Service develop a
relationship with the staff that makes them feel more
comfortable during trying circumstances.Their families get to
know and trust our team, making it easier to talk about treat-
ment options and plan for appropriate discharge.”
The rooms are decorated to provide a home-like setting with
music, artwork, a library, a kitchenette and sleeper sofas to help
make family members, who may stay extended hours, as
comfortable as possible.
While Dr. Miller and Nurse Pendergast provide pain
management, medical care, and explain treatment options,
the social workers and chaplain work closely with patients
and their families to provide spiritual and emotional comfort
and guidance. They support the medical team with resources
to help individuals understand and communicate long-term
health care wishes.
“Our team supports the primary
physician’s plan of care by making the
patient as comfortable as possible at all
stages of illness. In addition, we spend a
lot of time helping patients and their
families make very difficult and
complex decisions about what level
of care the patients want and need.”

THE POWEROF PALLIATIVE CARE

ANGIOPLASTYGetting to the heart of the matter
A relationship of trust is established. As a cardiologist, Dr. Rowan refers to this as
continuity of care. The patient simply calls it a blessing.
When Little Company of Mary Hospital cardiologist Daniel A. Rowan, D.O., Medical
Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Lab, establishes that a patient has blocked or
narrowed arteries, he typically recommends angioplasty, a medical procedure to open the
arteries and promote heart health. After a battery of preliminary diagnostic tests followed
by one-on-one consultations with the doctor, the patient enters surgery feeling safe in
Dr. Rowan’s care. A relationship of trust is established. As a cardiologist, Dr. Rowan refers
to this as continuity of care.The patient simply calls it a blessing.
Although this scenario makes perfect sense, it wasn’t always so. Seven years ago
Dr. Rowan could diagnose a patient’s need for angioplasty but could not perform the
procedure. Only hospitals with onsite, specialized heart surgery capabilities could perform
angioplasties, which precluded most community hospitals.This meant that Dr. Rowan’s
patients were transferred to another hospital, facing unfamiliar hospital personnel as well as
repeat testing.
Today, Dr. Rowan performs angioplasties because he jumped on the chance to involve and
lead Little Company of Mary in an extraordinary program initiated by Johns Hopkins
University and conducted by Hopkins’ Cardiovascular Patient Outcomes Research Team,
or C-PORT. The program, started in 2000, eventually established that smaller community
hospitals without onsite heart surgery capabilities can effectively perform emergency
angioplasties. In April 2006, C-PORT expanded the study to include elective angioplasty.
Dr. Rowan and his team successfully performed the study’s first elective angioplasty.
That patient was 70-year old Father William Kenneally, Pastor of St. Gertrude’s Parish in
Chicago’s Edgewater neighborhood.“Father Kenneally’s condition had progressed to a 70
percent blockage,” Dr. Rowan recalls.“While it had not yet reached an emergency level, it
was still a major concern.”
“Dr. Rowan advised me that this procedure was a good option,” says Father Kenneally.
“And being part of a major project like this appealed to me.”
Because of C-PORT, Dr. Rowan and Father Kenneally ended as they began—together.
Doctor and patient moved from diagnosis, through surgery, and on to Father Kenneally’s
recovery.
Dr. Rowan also feels that discontinuing the transfer policy will bring decreased patient
expenses.“Whenever anyone is transferred, there are costs—an ambulance, new doctors,
and duplicate testing to get these new doctors onboard.Whether this means an additional
co-payment or out-of-pocket expenses for uncovered costs, it’s money owed.Without
having to transfer patients, there will be a savings.”
THE LIVES WE TOUCH THROUGH HEALING 18
“It’s an honor to participate in C-PORT...
I owe a lot to Ann Miller R.N., the study
nurse coordinator, our cardiac cath lab
staff and most importantly, our patients.
Breaking new ground isn’t always easy,
but we did it. And we did it successfully.”

There are few more visual examples of the Lives We Touch than the “before and after”
pictures of our Bariatric Surgery Center patients. Each year in March we celebrate these
transformations at the Living Well Celebration, an event that honors all Little Company
of Mary weight loss patients and their success stories.
Just imagine how our patients’ lives change as they lose an average of 70 to 80 percent
of their excess weight within the first 18 months after surgery.
Since opening in November 2001, when the Little Company of Mary team performed the
first gastric bypass operation in Chicago’s Southwest suburbs, the Center has performed
more than 600 gastric bypass operations. Since that time patients have come to us from
throughout Illinois and Indiana and from as far away as Florida and Arizona.
“There are two things patients want to know,” says Little Company of Mary’s Midwest
Bariatric Institute Medical Director Gerald Cahill, M.D.,“does it work and is it safe?”
While the Center’s weight loss success rate has been impressive, the most important
statistic is its outstanding safety record.
In 2006, the Little Company of Mary program was named a Center of Excellence by the
American Society of Bariatric Surgery (ASBS). To earn this designation, our program
underwent a series of site inspections during which all aspects of the program’s surgical
processes were closely evaluated including data on patient health outcomes. Only programs
that provide top-quality care to ensure the efficacy of the procedure to the best of their
ability for each patient meet ASBS standards.
The bariatric team demonstrates excellence every day by offering one of the most
comprehensive pre-surgical education programs as well as a successful post-operative
support system that includes nutrition counseling under the direction of Dr. Cahill and
Little Company of Mary Program Director,Tony Romeo, R.N.
According to Mr. Romeo,“People who undergo the surgery within a month of each other
tend to have a lot in common because they are going through similar experiences. It really
helps when they can get together and share their thoughts and feelings.”
Bariatric surgery is only one part of a life-changing experience at the Bariatric Surgery
Center that includes nutrition, fitness and mental health support programs.
THE LIVES WE TOUCH THROUGH HEALING 20
“There are two things patients want to
know… does it work and is it safe?”
— Gerald Cahill, MD
Medical Director
Little Company of Mary’s
Midwest Bariatric Institute
“We see surgery as a tool in a much
more comprehensive weight loss process.
In addition to the surgery, we teach our
patients how to eat to maintain their
weight loss, and we provide social
support groups.”
