EvergreenHealth 2021 Community Annual Report

Mission

Message from the

Greetings,

As your community-owned health system, EvergreenHealth is pleased to share with you our 2021 Community Annual Report.

EvergreenHealth is guided by a purpose to enrich the health and well-being of every life we touch. It’s a commitment that has resonated with generations of physicians, staff and volunteers since our founding half a century ago, and continues to lead us as we evolve alongside our growing community to meet the changing health and wellness needs of all those we serve.

In fact, adapting to our area’s needs has played a significant role throughout our history, especially over the past several years. In 2021, we continued to care for patients and families with the highest-rated quality care, safety and service, while also remaining focused on the critical work of responding to the ongoing pandemic.

Over our 50 years, EvergreenHealth has grown into an integrated health system that includes 54 primary, specialty and urgent care clinics, two outstanding acute care hospitals in Kirkland and Monroe and the Puget Sound region’s best home care and hospice services. Providing compassionate, safe, highest-quality care is fundamental to who we are and what we do. As a public hospital district, we are also committed to serving our community as responsible investors of your resources, and delivering innovative and accessible solutions for the growing and changing health care needs of the community for now and the decades to come.

Just as it does every year, our 2021 Community Annual Report gives us the opportunity to highlight the ways we are ensuring equal access to high-quality health care and services, along with other meaningful benefits, to our community and beyond.

We are so grateful for the opportunity to serve you and your family, now and for many years to come.

Sincerely,

Jeff Tomlin, MD

In 2021, more than $6.8 million in levy funds were invested back into community health through a range of programs designed to provide quality health care, services and resources—often at no charge to the community.

Providing Education and Resources for Living Well EvergreenHealth Community Education Services

EvergreenHealth’s Community Education Services provides hundreds of free and low-cost seminars, workshops and health education classes each year that offer resources to community members for living well. Whether it is cooking demonstrations to inspire nutritious eating, exercise groups, emergency preparedness or parenting classes, the health system offers a wide range of curricula for the community’s benefit to address diverse needs and interests.

Among the year-round programs, EvergreenHealth’s Childbirth and Early Parenting Education resources offer dozens of classes to help families navigate the joys and challenges of parenting. Its Parent-Baby Groups provide education and support through facilitator-led discussions that encourage new families to share successes and challenges on a range of topics, including feeding, relationships, postpartum adjustment, developmental stages, sleep and more.

“We heard about EvergreenHealth’s Parent-Baby Groups while we were expecting our daughter Iris, and we knew we wanted to join. We recently moved to this area, and the group has been so helpful for meeting and connecting with other families who are sharing our experience as new parents. Especially during COVID, it just has helped to not to feel so alone. I’ve also really appreciated the guest speakers and all the information shared by our facilitators; it makes a difference having resources we know we can trust.”

– Paloma and Zach; parents of Iris, 6 months

Supporting Eastside Seniors and Caregivers EvergreenHealth Geriatric Care

EvergreenHealth Geriatric Care is the only practice on the Eastside dedicated to exclusively serving families and patients who are 65 years and older with specialized care without requiring a referral.

Just as pediatricians focus on the health needs of children, geriatric care providers focus on the complex health needs of seniors. Working in partnership with an interdisciplinary team of board-certified specialists, Geriatric Care providers include geriatricians, nurses, social workers and pharmacists—all with special training and experience assisting seniors.

The Geriatric Care team provides comprehensive assessments, evaluating patients’ medical conditions, cognitive status, functional ability and mental health needs to determine the most suitable treatment for each person. This experienced team also works hand-in-hand with each patient’s family, and coordinates with other health care providers to create an individualized care plan designed to empower seniors with choice and independence.

Understanding Our Community’s Health Needs

King County Community Health Needs Assessment

Northshore Senior Center

In 2021, EvergreenHealth continued its partnership with Northshore Senior Center (NSC), a Bothell-based nonprofit which provides resources, programs and services for Eastside seniors. After pivoting to a largely all online format in 2020, NSC slowly began to safely return to in-person engagement for many of its classes and programs in 2021.

In addition to their well-attended virtual caregiver support groups NSC offers a variety of classes and programs that help keep participants active and connected. Among its programs, NSC offers Enhance©Wellness, an evidence-based, health management program designed to help participants set goals and learn strategies for making positive choices to improve their physical and/or emotional well-being.

IN 2021, EVERGREENHEALTH’S PARTNERSHIP WITH NORTHSHORE SENIOR CENTER:

In 2021, new patient access grew by more than 29%, improving the health status, autonomy and quality of life for senior patients and their families.

EvergreenHealth participates in King County Hospitals for a Healthier Community (HHC), a collaborative of 10 hospitals/health systems in King County, that includes Public Health – Seattle & King County. HHC produces a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) that analyzes community inequities, strengths, and health needs. The CHNA presents community-identified priorities, a detailed description of the

Served 245 family caregivers through 927 touchpoints via programming, consultations and services.

As a full-time caregiver for her husband who lives with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), Jeanne Clark has been a long-time participant in many of Northshore Senior Center’s support groups and educational programs. When the active 80-year-old began suffering from significant fatigue and muscle weakness, largely because she was eating fewer meals as she focused on her husband’s care needs, the Social Services/ Wellness team at NSC suggested she explore the Center’s Enhance©Wellness program.

The NSC Adult Day Health program offered 84 virtual health and wellness classes, to encourage movement, fine motor skills, strengthening and other rehab services.

Helped 238 older adults maintain and improve their mental and emotional well-being through support groups, personal consultations, meditation, conversation groups and more.

“It was the perfect solution for me because I’m very goal oriented. I had struggled with making progress on my own, but my Enhance©Wellness coach gave me the support and structure to follow a plan that works. It is a self-directed program, so I have to put in the work, but Lydia is there to regularly check-in to provide support and encouragement as I work toward my goal of regaining strength and energy. It has been a life saver.”

community, analyses of data on life expectancy and leading causes of death and chronic illness rates throughout King County. The results of the CHNA compiled by HHC informs EvergreenHealth’s community programming.

EvergreenHealth has chosen Access to Care, Youth Mental Health, and Chronic Disease Management as areas of focus for our community programs, responding to identified needs and strengths found in the CHNA data.

“Exceptionally superior care.”

“Excellent listener, knowledgeable compassionate with good resources.”

“Caring, knowledgeable, helpful.”

“Very friendly, expert in care every time!”

The team continues to expand the number of patients we care for at EvergreenHealth Geriatric Care.

Resources for Responding to Students in Crisis Youth Mental Health Programs

With the support of community levy dollars, EvergreenHealth’s Youth Mental Health Task Force brings together youth, other organizations, and community members who share a passion for supporting young adults. The task force meets regularly for inspiring discussions that encourage the exchange of information and resources among community members and foster grassroots solutions.

The task force continues to expand its reach beyond EvergreenHealth, forging partnerships with other like-minded community organizations to develop programming and resources. In 2021, EvergreenHealth continued to partner with NAMI Eastside, the local affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, to host monthly hour-long forums on educational topics geared toward youth and community members who work with young people. Expert guest speakers presented a range of topics, including mindfulness, suicide prevention, bipolar disorder, childhood trauma and many others.

“With EvergreenHealth’s support, we are bringing needed programs into Eastside schools, including Youth Mental Health First Aid trainings, which provide participants with tools to help adolescents experiencing a mental health crisis or addiction challenge. We are also piloting an evidence-based program, Cope2Thrive, which is designed to help children, teens and young adults deal with anxiety, stress and depression by teaching them how to develop the skills needed to stop negative or unhelpful thoughts and start thinking, feeling and behaving in more positive ways. These are just a few of the things that have been possible to help support the young people in our community thanks to our partnership.”

– Barbie Collins Young, Executive Director of NAMI Eastside

Support for Northshore School District Students

Grant Funds Full-Time Mental Health Therapists

EvergreenHealth levy dollars continued to provide funding for full-time, onsite mental health therapists for each high school in the Northshore School District who support students referred by high school guidance counselors. In 2021, the district’s mental health therapists met with students individually and in small groups to address their needs.

FOR THE 2021-22 SCHOOL YEAR NORTHSHORE SCHOOL DISTRICT MENTAL HEALTH THERAPISTS:

Served 1,264 students Held 3,364 total visits

Responded to 47 crisis visits

Advancing STEM Education Partnering with local schools

With help from the community’s levy dollars, EvergreenHealth partners with local school districts to provide middle school and high school students with information and education related to Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM).

EvergreenHealth’s nine-year partnership with Juanita High School’s Global Health STEM program continued in 2021, which provided opportunities for EvergreenHealth leaders and physicians to present virtually as guest speakers on important health care topics. The interactive sessions provide students with the insight into health care-related career fields and encourage them to ask questions and immerse themselves in learning about career paths in science, health care and many more industries.

“I cannot stress enough the importance of this funding from EvergreenHealth as we have seen a reduction of crisis visits while being able to assist more students. During our second year of receiving the EvergreenHealth grant, the Northshore School District has been able to benefit by continuing to serve students from all demographics in the district by supporting their mental health needs. Due to the shortage of mental health providers in the area, our contracted therapists were able to provide continuous mental health services to families throughout the school year. Once again, we were grateful to have the opportunity to provide support for our secondary schools through funding from EvergreenHealth.”

Rick Ferrell, Director of Student Services for Northshore School District

In 2021, EvergreenHealth speakers joined Juanita High School Global Health STEM for 9 educational

Message from the Board Chair & Chief Philanthropy Officer

Dear Friends,

Thank you for your extraordinary support of EvergreenHealth. Throughout the challenges of the pandemic, you have continued to show your commitment by investing in local health care and ensuring our community has access to the best technology, programs and services available. This focus on quality has resulted in notable awards, including being named one of America’s 50 Best™ hospitals by Healthgrades again, placing EvergreenHealth in the top 1% of hospitals in the nation for clinical excellence. This honor comes as we celebrate our 50th anniversary of serving this region.

As we embark on our next 50 years, your support has never been more important. The Foundation is a vital partner with the health system in helping to fund critical programs and services. In 2021, donors contributed more than $3 million to help fund the buildout of a new Intensive Care Unit in EvergreenHealth’s Silver Tower. The Heart Care Center benefited from more than $400,000 in support to construct and equip a cardiac catheterization lab, and nearly $500,000 was invested in our Hospice Care Center. Thank you for helping EvergreenHealth meet the needs of our growing region!

You may have noticed a new face at the Foundation. This spring, I joined the team as the Chief Philanthropy Officer. I came to EvergreenHealth with nearly 30 years of experience in health care philanthropy and marketing. EvergreenHealth is a wonderful organization dedicated to health care excellence, and I feel so fortunate to be partnering with Anthony to help lead the Foundation efforts.

Thank you again for your support.

Message from the Board Chair and Director

Dear Neighbors,

In 2021, we were all affected by the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. With all the changes that have unfolded in daily life, we are proud to stand by EvergreenHealth Monroe to support our joint mission of working together to enrich the health and well-being of every life we touch

Our Foundation is supported by a strong group of volunteer Board of Trustees, who made direct and impactful investments throughout 2021 to enhance the care and services at EvergreenHealth Monroe. We did not do this alone. The growth and impact of the EvergreenHealth Monroe Foundation are only made possible by the vast array of support from our patients, local community, staff, and sponsoring businesses. Together, through their intentional giving, we were able to provide support for new mobile ventilators, GYN stretcher, rapid blood infuser, EKG machines, nursing education funds, and bus tickets for patients needing help with transportation.

The Foundation’s signature fundraising event, Blue Jeans and Boots Gala, was again held virtually due to COVID-19 restrictions. The weeklong virtual experience featured a robust silent auction and a virtual program. Funds raised through the Gala supported a new state-of-the-art digital imaging suite that delivers the highest quality imaging, advanced technology for less radiation exposure to the patient, and returned fluoroscopy services to EvergreenHealth Monroe.

EvergreenHealth Awarded for Outstanding Hospital Safety and Quality Care

EvergreenHealth has been recognized by independent organizations The Leapfrog Group and Healthgrades, which place the health system among the area’s highest-ranked hospitals for safety, stroke care, pulmonary care and critical care.

These latest accolades include an “A” rating for patient safety, awarded to EvergreenHealth for the seventh consecutive year by Leapfrog, a leading watchdog organization on hospital quality and safety.

EvergreenHealth also received recognition from Healthgrades as part of the independent organization’s newly released state rankings data for clinical outcomes, which distinguishes EvergreenHealth as the No. 1 hospital in the state for stroke care, and as the highest-ranked hospital in the Seattle area for pulmonary and critical care. The Healthgrades rankings place EvergreenHealth among the top two hospitals in the state for pulmonary and critical care, as well.

These rankings put EvergreenHealth in the top 5% in the nation for stroke and pulmonary care, and in the top 10% in the nation for critical care, among the 4,500 hospitals analyzed by Healthgrades nationwide. We’re proud to offer safe, high-quality care our patients can trust.
