ProMedica Health System: INSIDE

Meet Randy Oostra, Our New President and CEO

As of Oct. 1, 2009, Randy Oostra, DM, FACHE, took over the reins from Alan W. Brass, who has been chief executive officer of PHS since 1998. For a recent Inside interview, Randy was asked quite simply, “Who are you … and how did you become our CEO?”

In his usual, affable manner, Randy, 54, briefly discussed his upbringing. “I’m originally from a small farming community in northwest Iowa—Sioux Center—which had a population of 3,000. The highest structure in town was for grain storage!”

He proudly notes that he is of Dutch descent. “My mom was born in The Netherlands. She and Dad immigrated to America to live with relatives in Iowa,” he says. “They established roots in that particular location because they shared a rich heritage and unique family traditions with other Dutch immigrants who also were faith-based and had a strong work ethic.”

Randy was the youngest of three children. His sister is 13 years older and married to a pastor; due to his profession, they’ve lived throughout the U.S. over the years. Randy’s brother and sister-in-law both became teachers. “The paths chosen by my siblings clearly reflect the strong emphasis our parents placed on both faith and education.”

How did these same ideals shape Randy’s career in health care? “Like my siblings, and out of respect for my parents’ sacrifices, I set high expectations for myself. We all yearned for a life better than the previous generation’s. Health care was a natural calling, because we valued working together to help others.”

He further recalls, “Growing up with Depression-era parents, we understood at an early age that the road to our future would be paved by hard work and getting a good education.”

Randy’s own children—three sons, ages 23, 22 and 20—carry on the family commitment to education. His two older boys are in medical school, and his youngest son attends Bowling Green State University. His wife, Barb, who grew up on a farm, is the development director of Toledo Christian School.

Outside work, Randy enjoys golfing and staying active with his family. “Exercise is an essential part of my routine. It’s a good stress-reliever,” he says. He also is a strong community advocate, serving on several boards for nonprofit organizations such as the Cherry Street Mission and United Way of Greater Toledo.

Where will our new president and CEO lead us? “We’ve been a very successful organization over the past decade. So I don’t see any immediate, radical changes,” Randy forecasts. “However, ProMedica will need to change in response to the current health care climate. I also envision strengthening our service to the community in very tangible ways.”

When asked what ProMedica’s greatest strength is, without hesitation he replies, “Our employees … the people who have chosen to commit their life’s work to our patients.”

Editor’s Note: Each month Inside will feature Randy discussing various topics, such as local health care amid reform, living a legacy through philanthropy, and more. If you have suggestions for these topics, please send them to inside@promedica.org. We value your input.

Know Your Health! Complete the Online Health Risk Assessment

This summer more than 1,500 employees took an Employee Wellness Questionnaire and many of you told us that you didn’t know about the confidential, online Health Risk Assessment (HRA) available at no cost to all ProMedica Health System employees.

The HRA is a great way to learn more about your current health status, and once you “know your health” you can start taking steps to maintain or improve it. Go to the “Health Risk Assessment and Resources” link on the myProMedica “Employee Wellness” department page to complete your HRA now. Or, read on if you’re still not convinced that taking the HRA is right for you.

Once you know your current health status, you don’t have to stop there … There are countless wellness resources and activities available to PHS employees. In fact, the PHS Employee Wellness Program’s Healthy Eating Challenge kicks off this month. So, why not make now the time you commit to maintaining or improving your health?

For more information, visit the myProMedica “Employee Wellness” department page.

Some of you said the following issues have kept you from taking the HRA in the past:

Not Enough Time

Oftentimes, we’re so busy caring for others that we don’t have time to care for ourselves. The HRA is a simple way to start giving your own health the consideration you deserve.The assessment can take as little as five minutes to complete. And, you can access it from work or home on any computer with Internet access.

Confidentiality Concerns

The information you provide is kept strictly confidential by the third-party HRA vendor, Staywell^®; you are the only one who will see your results. As your employer, PHS is provided with group (“aggregate”) data without names, which will be helpful for providing wellness programs and services that meet the needs of all employees.

Not Interested

If you already know what you need to do to stay or get healthy, completing the HRA every six months will give you a record of your progress and help you notice if changes occur. If you’re fearful or just not interested to learn your HRA results, reconsider the benefits: a few minutes taking the HRA gives you access to online resources and empowers you to start taking small steps that could add up to long-lasting results.

Technical Difficulty

If you have faced technical difficulties with the HRA, there are resources to help you:

- Trouble logging in to myProMedica from home? Call your local ProMedica Service Desk (formerly the Help Desk) connection on the myProMedica “Help” page.

- Trouble logging in to the HRA web page? Paramount Health Care members, call Member Services at 419-887-2525 or 1-800-462-3589 if you forgot your user name and password. Non-Paramount members, call Mindy Cross, senior health services coordinator, Paramount, at 419-887-2303.

- Other technical difficulties? Call Mindy Cross at 419-887-2303.

PHS Employee Wellness Program contacts are also available to answer your general questions about the HRA, and even walk you through completing the online assessment. See the myProMedica “Employee Wellness” department page for your business unit’s contact.

Incomplete Screening Results

If you don’t have all of the screening results that the HRA asks you to enter, you can still complete the HRA now. Then input the results the next time you complete your HRA, once you’ve obtained these screening results from your next regularly scheduled check-up or employee health screening fair. It’s recommended that you complete the HRA every six months to track your progress.

What Will You Do During Breast Cancer Awareness Month?

Maybe you’ve seen ProMedica Cancer Institute’s ads that use the statement I Will … to tell us what patients, families and medical professionals are doing to detect, manage and treat cancer.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Although women are at greater risk than men and the risk increases with age, people of both genders and all ages may develop breast cancer. Even if you’re not directly affected, breast cancer may touch the life of a friend or relative.

What will you do this month—and throughout the year—for your own breast health or the breast health of those you care about?

Pay Attention to Your Breast Health

Early detection can help lead to diagnosis at an early stage and successful treatment of breast cancer. Follow these screening recommendations from the American Cancer Society:

- Women age 40 and older should have a screening mammogram every year and should continue to do so for as long as they are in good health.

- Women in their 20s and 30s should have a clinical breast exam as part of a periodic (regular) health exam by a health professional, preferably every three years. After age 40, women should have a breast exam by a health professional every year.

- Breast self exam (BSE) is an option for women starting in their 20s. Women should be told about the benefits and limitations of BSE, and report any breast changes to their health professional right away.

-Women at high risk (greater than 20% lifetime risk) should get an MRI and a mammogram every year. Women at moderately increased risk (15% to 20% lifetime risk) should talk with their doctors about the benefits and limitations of adding MRI screening to their yearly mammogram. Yearly MRI screening is not recommended for women whose lifetime risk of breast cancer is less than 15%.

- The American Cancer Society offers more about breast cancer statistics and risk factors on its web site—www.cancer.org.

Get Informed About Early Detection

If you’re not sure you know everything you need to know about early detection of breast cancer, take time to get informed during fun, interactive sessions presented by ProMedica experts from noon – 1 p.m. on the following dates:

- Thurs., Oct. 8, Herrick Medical Center, Basement Conference Room

- Fri., Oct. 9, Bay Park Community Hospital, Superior Conference Room

- Tues., Oct. 13, Bixby Medical Center, Merillat Room

- Thurs., Oct. 15, Fostoria Community Hospital, Conference Center A

- Tues., Oct. 20, The Toledo Hospital/Toledo Children’s Hospital, Education Center Room D

- Thurs., Oct. 22, Flower Hospital, 8^th Floor Conference Rooms C and F

- Tues., Oct. 27, Corporate Office Building, Alder Room

- Thurs., Oct. 29, Paramount Health Care, Auditorium

Defiance Regional Medical Center (DRMC) also hosted a lunch in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month on Oct. 1 at Kettenring Country Club with guest speakers Chrys Peterson, WTOL, and Karla Batt, American Cancer Society. Proceeds will benefit the discounted mammogram program at DRMC.

Take Action To Protect Yourself, Patients from Flu

For the past few weeks, it’s been nearly impossible to avoid hearing constant news reports about H1N1 flu and, more recently, seasonal flu.

“Because we work for a health care system, the patient is our number one priority. We need to do everything we can to keep our patients safe, and that includes protecting ourselves from getting the flu so we don’t pass it on to our patients,” states Brian Dick, MPH, MT (ASCP), CIC, corporate infection prevention and control department, ProMedica Health System (PHS). “We also need to keep our health and the health of our families in mind. Flu can have serious consequences.”

What can you do to avoid the flu? First, be sure to get vaccinated. As in previous years, PHS is offering free seasonal flu vaccines to employees and volunteers. Additionally, the H1N1 vaccine is being made available as per the CDC, which recommends the following individuals receive the vaccine first:

- health care workers,

- pregnant women,

- those who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age,

- those between the ages of 6 months – 24 years of age, and

- people ages 25 – 64 who are at higher risk because of chronic health disorders or compromised immune systems.

The seasonal flu vaccine is not thought to protect against H1N1 flu. Similarly, the H1N1 flu vaccine does not protect against seasonal flu. Although you might have a very mild, brief reaction (lasting one or two days) to the seasonal and H1N1 flu vaccines, potential benefits of vaccination far outweigh not getting vaccinated. Please see myProMedica or department postings for updated information regarding vaccine availability at your PHS business unit.

In addition to being vaccinated, if you work directly with patients, you should mask patients who have a cough and a fever because they likely have a contagious disease. A mask will block the droplets from hitting you and also from landing on surfaces. Place inpatients with cough and fever into “Droplet Precautions.”

Everyday steps that every employee should follow:

- Always cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw the tissue into the trash. Or, cough and sneeze into your upper sleeve.

- Wash hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Or, clean hands often with alcohol wipes or hand sanitizers.

- Try to avoid close contact with sick people.

For more information, visit www.promedica.org/H1N1, which is routinely updated by our corporate infection prevention & control department. It contains lots of useful information you can use both at work and at home.

What Does Customer Service Mean?

Reflections from Lynn Sinclair, director of customer satisfaction services, ProMedica Health System

This is a question I frequently ask students attending one of the customer service classes I teach for ProMedica University. It is a question that lingers like a morning fog on an open field. As we begin October and Customer Service Week narrows our focus and lets us squint to see the sunshine through that fog, let’s adopt a very personal approach that is defined by this year’s Customer Service Week theme: Always Accountable—Service Starts With Me. As we rise through the fog of uncertainty about what customer service means, let’s remind each other that we are here to serve in a most meaningful way—with passion, commitment and dedication. This is the basis for an understanding of what customer relationships mean to us personally and to our organization as a whole. At the end of each day, it is we who are accountable for putting our sparkling attitudes to work in service of others.

First Lady Strickland Visits FH Campus

Mrs. Strickland, far right, speaks to the group about health and wellness initiatives during her tour of the Fields of Green future headquarters.

ProMedica Health System (PHS) welcomed Ohio’s First Lady Frances Strickland to Flower Hospital (FH) campus on Sept. 1 to learn about PHS’ signature program to combat obesity in our communities—Fields of Green. PHS established Fields of Green in 2008 to raise awareness in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan about obesity by encouraging healthy lifestyles and promoting solid nutrition and exercise habits.

“We were honored to have Ohio’s First Lady visit to learn about Fields of Green,” says Barbara Petee, ProMedica’s chief communications and government relations officer. “Frances is dedicated to the health and well-being of Ohio families, so it was reaffirming for us to see her interest in what we believe to be a very innovative program and vision to improve the future health of our region.”

Also present for the visit were: Becky Epstein, a student from the winning team (PB Jammers) of last year’s Fields of Green scholarship program; Becky’s father, Scott Epstein; and Maureen Knowles, a nurse from McKinley Elementary—the school that, in Spring 2009, implemented lunch programs designed by PB Jammers and other winning teams; Ohio State Representative Barbara Sears; and Stephanie Cihon, director of community relations, advocacy and corporate events, PHS.

After learning about myriad programs created to encourage healthy habits and better nutrition and exercise choices, Mrs. Strickland and the others were given a sneak peek into what ProMedica envisions to be the future headquarters of Fields of Green—the barn located on the FH campus. ProMedica hopes to transform the currently unoccupied barn into an instrumental “Living Learning Lab” where each component of Fields of Green projects can be connected and housed.

While ensuring the integral history of the barn, ProMedica would like to renovate it to include features such as: a small museum dedicated to accomplishments of the medical field in northwest Ohio, classroom area complete with teleconferencing capabilities, working kitchen with classroom space, outdoor vegetable garden, composting area, and lab space where a variety of health care careers can be explored.

Fields of Green is yet another example of how ProMedica is making a commitment to encouraging healthy lifestyle choices. To learn more about ProMedica’s most current Fields of Green scholarship program, please visit www.promedica.org/fieldsofgreen.

My Cure; My Calling

My Cure; My Calling: The Path to Remission Leads Two Women To Give Back

Amy Thorpe, MEd, CCC/SLP, a speech language pathologist who works mostly with pediatric patients at Toledo Children’s Hospital, and Jenny Engle, a co-chairperson of Bixby Community Health Foundation’s Graze to Raise Committee, live in different parts of our region and do not know each other. But they have something amazing in common: both women battled breast cancer around the same time—early in the new millennium—and both decided to use this life-changing experience to help others and raise awareness in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan.

Amy Speaks Out To Support the Cause

Amy Thorpe, pictured center in pink, is surrounded by her team of supporters, a group of family and friends dubbed “Amy’s Allies”, who join her every year at Race for the Cure.

At the height of her career and in great physical shape, even her physician didn’t think that the lump then 34-year-old Amy Thorpe found would turn out to be Stage IV breast cancer.

Seven-and-a-half years ago when Amy first discovered that lump, and the doctor identified two more, she was the newly elected president of the Ohio Speech and Hearing Association and ran six to seven miles a day.

After a biopsy revealed all three tumors were malignant and 22 lymph nodes tested positive for cancer, Amy underwent multiple surgeries including a double mastectomy, plus began an intense chemotherapy regimen at Hickman Cancer Center on the campus of Flower Hospital. Although she realized the odds were against her, Amy told her family, “I’ve decided that I’m not going to die from cancer.” She felt called to a higher purpose, but she didn’t yet know what form that would take.

During this time, Amy saw a photograph by an artist who painted “Be Amazing” at the bottom of his pool so he would see it every time he looked at his own reflection—she adopted this as her motto.

The aggressive chemotherapy took a toll on Amy’s body, followed by radiation and more surgeries. But, she made recovery her full-time job, reading, researching and going to meditation, art therapy, physical therapy, nutritionists, support groups, and more to help herself.

After 11 months, Amy was thrilled to return to her career at Toledo Children’s Hospital. But the year ahead still held weekly sessions to administer a trial drug to reduce chances for recurrence. When it ended, Amy struggled at first transitioning from the life of a cancer patient; the staff at Hickman Cancer Center had become her extended family. That’s when she realized her calling.

“I started taking my life back and threw myself into community work,” says Amy, who now shares her story to inspire other people fighting cancer, as well as groups ranging from ProMedica Health System’s Management Town Hall to area high school students.

“I think every one of us is amazing. And, we need to look ourselves in the mirror every day and tell ourselves that,” emphasizes Amy, who appreciates that people other than cancer patients can also use her message. “Everyone’s got their challenges, but we all need to appreciate what we have.”

Jenny Steps Up To Support the Cause

Jenny Engle, center, helps start the 2008 Graze to Raise event with Jim Van Doren, master of ceremonies, and Rev. Gary Dawes, First Methodist Church of Adrian.

Now in remission for seven-and-a-half years, Adrian resident and mother of four, Jenny Engle, didn’t expect to be faced with breast cancer at age 32.

At the time Jenny had recently finished breastfeeding her youngest child, which could have explained the lump she found in her breast. Her physician told her to keep an eye on it and follow up to schedule further testing if nothing changed.

Six weeks later, further testing revealed a malignant tumor in 15 lymph nodes. “You don’t expect to survive that,” Jenny says.

After getting a second opinion elsewhere, Jenny chose treatment at Hickman Cancer Center on the campus of Bixby Medical Center, where she participated in a clinical trial that tested a drug now used to treat breast cancer.

At Hickman Cancer Center, Jenny felt like more than just a number. “I was a person,” she stresses. “I had all these wonderful resources right here in Adrian. I live here and I was treated here—only five minutes from home.”

Jenny also feels fortunate that she had coverage to fund her treatment and a strong support system to help her through the experience. But during that time she also saw how this wasn’t the case for everyone, and that called her to action.

“If I can do something to help someone who is in that position, I am there!” says Jenny, who often found that she couldn’t sleep at night during her experience. Now she tells others battling breast cancer to call her day or night.

Jenny also feels good about her decision to get involved with the Graze to Raise 5K Walk and Taste event benefitting Hickman Cancer Center. “All the money from Graze to Raise goes towards helping people. There is nothing better than that,” she says.

The annual event, scheduled for Sat., Oct. 17, raises funds to provide patients with access to the same physicians and nurses, and top-of-the-line technology that Jenny received right in her own “backyard.” It also supports the need Jenny saw for charity care.

“The experience I had changed my life. I would never wish it on anyone, but it truly did change my life,” says Jenny. “It also changed my family’s life—all for the better. My experience really made me appreciate each and every day I have.”
