Executive Summary
Moving with Momentum
E
stablished in 1966, the College of Health Professions at the Medical University of South Carolina has grown exponentially in terms of both size and quality since our inception. This year, while sustaining our outstanding reputation for health professions education, research and service, we have achieved new milestones that set us apart from our peers and serve as metrics for success in achieving our vision of national distinction.
We continue to be ranked as the largest College on campus in terms of student enrollment and we offer the greatest diversity of educational programs with one undergraduate and eight graduate academic degree programs. The demand to address the shortage in the health care workforce remains strong in driving a continued increase in the number of applications to our academic programs and Lisa K. Saladin, providing us with a highly qualified applicant pool with an average admission GPA PT, PhD, Dean of 3.5. A strong indicator of the quality of our academic programs is the pass rate on national board exams which was 97% or above for our clinical academic programs. While the competition for research funding is extremely high and the overall total grant funding for MUSC was down last year, the College of Health Professions doubled the amount of grant funding awarded as compared to the previous year and set a new record of $8,854,649 in grant awards. The largest and most notable new award this year was for a 5-year National Institute of Health, Center of Biomedical Research Excellence Award (COBRE) for our new “South Carolina Research Center for Recovery from Stroke.” The principal investigator for this multidisciplinary award is Dr. Steven Kautz, Chair of the Department of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, who developed collaborative partnerships with the departments of Neurology, Neuroscience, Radiology, Psychiatry, and Medicine at MUSC to make this Center a reality. This Center will provide citizens of South Carolina and beyond access to innovative clinical trials that have the potential to enhance outcomes and improve recovery post-stroke. We continue to invest resources targeted at growing our research initiatives with a specific goal of improving patient assessments, treatments and ultimately patient outcomes. The other truly significant accomplishment was the establishment of the first endowed chair for research in the College. We are most grateful to the Christie Family for their philanthropic investment and partnership that established the Christie Family Endowed Chair in Stroke Rehabilitation Research. This incredibly generous and transformational investment will facilitate our ability to engage in innovative stroke recovery research that will impact the citizens we serve for many years to come. We are now among a select few Colleges of Health Professions in the country with an endowed chair for research. This would not have been possible without the dedication and stewardship of Mrs. Leslie Brady, Director of Development, who was directly responsible for setting a new record in fundraising to support research, student scholarships, our free therapy clinic and other key initiatives for the College. The accomplishments highlighted above represent only a few of the most substantial achievements for the College in 2013-2014 that set us apart from peer institutions across the country and that contribute to our national distinction as a top ranked College of Health Professions. I encourage you to read through the entire report to learn more about the exceptional work of our faculty, staff, and students who collectively contributed to our success. It has been another great year and I anticipate that our momentum will continue to build as we seek new opportunities to advance health professions education, research and service. Mahatma Ghandi once said, “In a gentle way, you can shake the world.” Our goal is to gently shake the world in order to make a difference. Lisa K. Saladin, PT, PhD Dean and Professor College of Health Professions

“As a new program director, Dr. Moore demonstrated for me how to be an effective leader and mentor. I will always be grateful for her mentorship, leadership, and her cool calm approach to communication. Dr. Moore taught me the value of developing relationships with staff and members of state agencies.” -Angela Mund, PhD, Director, Anesthesia for Nurses Division Lao Tzu, an ancient Chinese philosopher and poet, spoke of the qualities of a great leader: “A leader is best when people barely know the leader exists and that when the leader’s work is done, their aim fulfilled, the people will say ‘we did it ourselves!’” This quote so aptly describes Dr. Moore’s leadership style—she “guides by the side” and uses a facilitator approach. Dr. Moore empowered the faculty to step forward and govern themselves as they completed their charge. Rather than direct the work of a committee, she quietly facilitated the work of the committee until the task was completed and we felt like we did it ourselves.” -Holly Wise, PhD, Physical Therapy Division Dr. Moore is one of the most principle-centered individuals I have ever known and it was my honor and privilege to have had the opportunity to work with her.” -Michael Meacham, JD, MPH, Department of Healthcare Leadership and Management Drs. Moore and Blake established the “Emily L. Moore and J. Herman Blake C.A.R.E.S. Fund – Lifting as We Climb.” Their personal commitment continues to inspire and motivate faculty and students who give of their time and expertise in the CARES Therapy Clinic.

Education Highlights
Interprofessional Practice and Education When it comes to interprofessional practice and education at MUSC, students and faculty members from the College of Health Professions continue to set the pace for participation and innovation. The mix of programs within the College lends itself to collaborative action and socialization upon entry, imbuing students with early confidence to engage with university-wide interprofessional initiatives. Learning to work effectively as team members is critical for their future as healthcare practitioners. The College showcased two projects which demonstrate the richness of experiential learning for our students: the Caregiver Project and CARES Therapy Clinic Goes Digital.

Interprofessional Caregiver Project Every summer, 170 occupational therapy, physical therapy, and physician assistant studies students begin their respective courses of study. These talented and highly competitive students come from diverse backgrounds, varied life experiences, with a plethora of undergraduate majors. As a way to unite these students, the importance of team-based work is highlighted and woven into learning activities from the beginning. Introductory courses in all three professions bear the hallmark of interprofessional engagement. A core aspect of becoming an effective healthcare practitioner is the development of caring attitudes and empathic behaviors, considered by most Americans to be an essential and intrinsic element of appropriate health care; whereas in many health professions curricula little attention is given to these elements. With initial funding from the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations, an interprofessional model of health professions education, The Caring Professionals Program was designed to enhance caring and compassion. An offshoot of this program, The Caregiver Project, is now embedded as a required assignment in the foundational courses of our occupational therapy, physical therapy, and physician assistant studies programs.
College of Health Professions’ faculty members partnered with three community organizations: Trident Area Agency on Aging, Pattison’s Academy for children with severe disabilities, and Care Partners for family members with Parkinson’s disease. They arranged for interprofessional teams of three or four students to interview caregivers who regularly care for people who, through illness, injury, or disability, are unable to care for themselves. Caregiver burden is frequently overlooked by practitioners and other service providers, resulting in the trials and tribulations to go unrecognized for 43.5 million caregivers in the United States. The instructional design for the assignment blended team work and perspective taking. Students had direct opportunity to interview caregivers, often in their own homes. Carefully constructed open-ended questions allowed more heart talk than chart talk, and helped students to develop awareness and gain understanding of the caretakers’ experiences. This fostered development of empathy and compassion as students considered the role of their profession with a particular subpopulation. Over the past five years, 900 occupational therapy, physical therapy, and physician assistant studies students have participated in the Caregiver Project and interacted with a total of 265 individual caregivers. Following this experiential learning experience, the small interprofessional student teams join other teams to reflect and discuss the commonalities of what they learned about the caregivers and the challenges they face. The interprofessional teams are challenged to take a humanistic approach and create a presentation to share with other teams, course instructors, community partners, and caregivers. Presentations included art, poetry, and symbolism to portray the essence of the unseen aspects of caregiving and how it plays out in everyday life. Students routinely indicate the positive influence of this activity, often rating it as one of the most meaningful interprofessional experiences during their

time at MUSC. Through carefully embedded course objectives, the Caregiver Project integrates thoughtful, instructional design with active learning and reflection in a context-specific environment that benefits caregivers and students alike, allowing the College to fulfill its commitment to a culture that supports caring for others.
contributed to different aspects of the project—but with one overarching goal: to effectively implement an electronic health record system that meets the unique needs of the CARES Therapy Clinic. Examples of activities in which students were involved included evaluating and mapping current workflow, assessing documentation and electronic health record requirement needs, and identifying viable vendors and products. In partnership with faculty advisors, each team developed a plan for completing their portion of the overall project and for communicating findings and recommendations to the other teams.

Community Aid, Relief, Education and Support (CARES) Therapy Clinic Goes Digital A unique twist on interprofessional collaboration is adding a new profession to an existing team. Founded in 2005, the CARES Therapy Clinic has provided free occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech language and pathology services to individuals living in the community with no health insurance or whose health insurance benefits have expired. As services and interprofessional participation have expanded, the need for digital support has increased exponentially. Due to a new collaboration with residential master in health administration students, the CARES Therapy Clinic is on its way to adopting and implementing its first electronic health record system, a key step to facilitating team-based communication and documentation, improving efficiency and enhancing patient care. Using the same pedagogy as the Caregiver Project, a carefully designed assignment was embedded in the spring semester Management and Health Information Systems course for health administration students. Seven teams of students, each with a faculty advisor, worked closely with occupational therapy and physical therapy students working in the CARES Therapy Clinic. The newly created teams

Process Map of Workflow at CARES Therapy Clinic Upon completion of the assignment, the health administration teams presented their findings to the CARES Therapy Board which is comprised of occupational therapy and physical therapy students, and faculty members. Further steps to fully implement the electronic health record in the CARES Therapy Clinic are underway, and a new synergy now exists among health professions students in health administration, occupational therapy and physical therapy with increased awareness of team-based roles and competencies. Students gained greater insight and appreciation for their future colleagues and the unique knowledge and skills each brings to the table when solving complex health care delivery problems resulting in the CARES Therapy Clinic Board establishing two board positions for health administration students.
Research and Scholarly Activity Highlights Grants Submitted The number of grant applications submitted by CHP faculty since 2005 has remained generally consistent. Beginning in 2009, the range in the number of submissions per year has been 38-42 with an average of 40 per year. The total monetary value of the applications submitted between 2005 and 2009 was relatively stable ranging from $12-$18 million and since 2010 has progressively increased over time. From 2010 to 2012, the value of the applications increased to $22.7-$35.0 million indicating an increased focus on securing higher valued grant awards that support research over longer periods of time. In 2013, the College achieved a record with the value of grant submissions totaling $42.8 million, and has surpassed that milestone with a new all-time record of $49.6 million in requested funding in FY 2014. This included a $9 million resubmission to the National Institute on Aging for a Phase III Clinical Trial, an $11.2 million resubmission application to the National Institute of Health (NIH) Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence to establish the South Carolina Research Center for Recovery from Stroke, and $17.7 million in applications to the Department of Education’s National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research. Of the 40 applications submitted, 13 were for requests of greater than $1 million and 6 were requests for greater than $2 million. Positive growth is illustrated in the “$ Value of Grants Applications Submitted” graph showing the trend line of the value of our grant applications submitted since FY 2005. Included in this year’s submissions were 31 federal proposals totalling $48.9 million.

Research and Scholarly Activity Highlights
Grants Awarded Reflecting on the trend since 2005, the number of active grant awards to CHP principal investigators each year has remained steadily greater than 20 awards (range 21-35; average 28). This includes new grants as well as noncompeting continuations of active projects that are awarded on a year-by-year basis. Given the increasingly competitive and subjective environment of external funding, particularly from federal funding sources, this is a strong indicator of the quality of the College’s researchers and the strength of its research programs. The total annual monetary value of grant awards over time indicates a steadfast funding stream of greater than $2.3 million annually for FY 2005-2009, then a significant increase to greater than $3.7 million annually for FY 2010-2012. In FY 2013 the College achieved a record with awards totaling $4.3 million, and now for FY 2014 the College has more than doubled that milestone with a new all-time record of $8,854,649 in grant awards. The average annual total for FY 2005-2014 is $3.9 million. Positive growth is illustrated in the “$ Value of Grants Awarded” graph.

March for Babies Campaign The faculty and staff from the College of Health Professions raised $1,800 which surpassed last year’s goal through participation in a Chili Cookoff, Flamingo Flocking, Blue Jeans for Babies and Soup Social for the Charleston March for Babies Campaign held April 2014. The March of Dimes - March for Babies support community programs that help moms have healthy, full-term pregnancies. Funds also support research that explores ways to end premature births.
local population of oysters by filling mesh bags with oyster shells. These bags were used to build a community reef for juvenile oysters, and to create a three-dimensional community reef along the coast. The mesh bags were laid side-by-side on the shore to create a “footprint” that would eventually become a living oyster reef. The College of Health Professions’ volunteers worked arduously to fill 225 bags; contributing greatly to the environmental sustainability of our beautiful Lowcountry for generations to come.

Taste of Charleston College of Health Professions’ staff answered the request to serve as volunteers for the annual Charleston Restaurant Association’s “Taste of Charleston” event which attracts thousands of visitors to Boone Hall Plantation, Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina each year. Staff volunteered at the ticket gate, water booths and distributed product samples. A portion of the proceeds benefits local non-profits to include MUSC’s Hollings Cancer Center. Dr. Patty Coker-Bolt with OT and PT students

In May 2014, Drs. Patty Coker-Bolt (Associate Professor, Division of Occupational Therapy) and Cynthia Dodds (Assistant Professor, Division of Physical Therapy) served as mentors to occupational therapy and physical therapy students who participated on a medical mission trip to Masindi, Uganda with the Palmetto Medical Initiative (PMI). The vision of PMI is for impoverished communities to take ownership in a sustainable healthcare model, so that they may become empowered to bring about long-term change and tangible improvements in quality of life. From the College, 25 occupational therapy, physical therapy, and physician assistant studies students served over 1,300 citizens of Uganda during the May 2014 short-term medical mission trip. To participate, each student had to raise a significant sum of money and sacrifice 11 days of their summer break. Each day, students and mentors traveled from Masindi, Uganda to visit orphanages and remote village locations where mobile clinics provided health education, rehabilitation, medical services, pharmacy, and adaptive equipment to children and adults with physical disabilities and chronic diseases.
Service Highlights – Giving Back to the Community
Students provided care to patients by participating as members of interprofessional teams with licensed physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and therapists. This allowed students to practice discipline specific skills while gaining an understanding and respect for other team members’ roles and responsibilities. Local community partners, such as interpreters, community church leaders, teachers, and Peace Corp volunteers, joined the interprofessional teams allowing students a richer cultural experience. “PMI, my team members, and the people of Uganda have taught me many things. This trip brought not only new knowledge regarding disease states and treatments, but reignited a passion inside of me to serve my fellow man. It is my hope to continue to be a part of community based service organizations, to serve people in greatest need. Traveling and learning about different cultures is such an irreplaceable experience that allows the mind to think and see the simplest things in the world so differently.” Emily Cook, Occupational Therapy student
Ethiopia Project: Pediatric Constraint Induced Movement Therapy An innovative international collaborative research project to study the effects of pediatric constraintinduced movement therapy (P-CIMT) using a protocol adapted for Addis Ababa, Ethiopia was accomplished by Dr. Patty Coker-Bolt through a pilot grant provided by the MUSC Center for Global Health. P-CIMT is one of the most effective treatment approaches for children with unilateral motor weakness or hemiparesis, regardless of the neuromotor impairment’s etiology. Patients engaged in P-CIMT treatment wear of a constraint on the stronger hand/arm while engaging in intensive task practice with the weaker hand/arm. While increasingly being implemented in western countries, P-CIMT is not used in developing countries such as Ethiopia where the care of disabled children is nearly non-existent. Ethiopian therapists lack access to the specialized training in many therapeutic techniques including P-CIMT. This project helped develop a culturally-relevant and feasible Ethiopian P-CIMT treatment model that retained the critical elements of the evidence-based P-CIMT approaches developed in westernized cultures. In addition, a pilot project, which engaged
Ethiopian therapists who participated in the P-CIMT workshop
children and therapists from five hospitals in Addis Ababa, tested the feasibility and efficacy of this new therapy model. Dr. Coker-Bolt collaborated with Dr. Michelle Woodbury, Associate Professor, Department of Health Sciences and Research; researchers from Virginia Tech Carilion Research Institute, Drs. Sharon Ramey and Stephanie DeLuca; and the CURE Hospital in Ethiopia. The CURE Ethiopia Children’s Hospital is a 36 bed hospital, established in 2007 by CURE International with a focus on providing surgical subspecialty care to the disabled children of Ethiopia. Dr. Coker-Bolt made two trips to the CURE Hospital in Ethiopia to work with 13 therapists at CURE Hospital, and four other hospitals in Addis Ababa. During the first trip to Addis Ababa, Drs. CokerBolt, Ramey, and DeLuca provided a week-long workshop on P-CIMT to therapists who helped in the development of a culturally sensitive P-CIMT model which could be easily adapted to the culture of Ethiopia. Individualized screenings and clinical recommendations were made to children with hemiplegia and their families. Ten children were enrolled in a pilot study to test the feasibility of the newly developed P-CIMT model. The second trip involved working with area therapists to provide this new P-CIMT program to the children who were enrolled in an Institutional Review Board approved pilot study. Data collected from this pilot study is currently being analyzed and results will be presented at national conferences and published.

Education Awards 2014 Eleanor Clarke Slagle Lectureship and 2013 Eleanor Clarke Slagle Award Maralynne Mitcham, PhD, Assistant Dean and Professor in the Occupational Therapy Division (Excerpt from the MUSC Catalyst)
Royal blue hair extensions were the “must–have” accessory of the night as occupational therapists and supporters from around the nation eagerly awaited Maralynne Mitcham’s entrance onto the stage. The accoutrements and festivities were in honor of Dr. Maralynne Mitcham presentation of the Eleanor Clarke Slagle Lectureship at the American Occupational Therapists Association meeting on April 4 in Baltimore, MD. A year after Mitcham was honored with the prestigious 2013 Eleanor Clarke Slagle Lectureship Award for being an innovator in education, interprofessionalism and faculty development; it was her time to present the distinguished lecture to colleagues around the world. Eleanor Clark Slagle is considered the mother of occupational therapy. The early 20th-century social welfare worker and occupational therapist co–founded the National Society for the promotion of occupational therapy in 1917 and led the organization until 1926. The lectureship, first presented in 1955, honors the dedication and ideals Slagle held dear. Since its inception, 50 occupational therapy scholars have shared their insights, knowledge and ideals. “Dr. Maralynne Mitcham is a nationally recognized educator and scholar who has earned the respect of colleagues nationally and internationally,” Dean Lisa Saladin said. “Equally or perhaps more importantly, Maralynne embodies the ‘heart’ of the College of Health Professions. She takes the time to get to know everyone as an individual and to truly care about each faculty, staff, and student that she encounters. She inspires me to be a better person.” Mitcham said, “I wanted to provide something that can live on and serve as an inspiration in the spirit of the person after whom it was named. I wanted my lecture to reflect grit and a visionary sense of where we need to go.” Education as Engine was the title of her lecture. “I wanted the audience to remember my talk and I knew if the title was more than three words, they’d never remember it.”
Dr. Maralynne Mitcham presenting her Education as Engine Lecture April 4, 2014 in Baltimore, MD.
She chose a train as a metaphor for the engine, which was the central theme of her talk. Education as a product, learning as a process, and living as progress comprised the themes of her lecture. She was thrilled with the response of the audience as people shared with her that she helped them sort out issues and change their perspectives. For Mitcham, the highlight of the conference was the chance to be with people she’s spent her professional career with and to offer something that would serve them in the future. She hopes her presentation will help guide future discussion and action. “We need to be looking at new degree programs that serve the collective. We can’t be exclusive or about special interests, we must come to some agreement on core values and, whether you agree with them or not, we have to ask if it’s in the best interest.” Mitcham has a special place in her heart for her students and is dedicated to bringing the next generation along. “I’ve mentored two generations of people and those who I mentored are mentoring others now. It’s very important to help the collective group get ahead. I relish helping young people — they are so very bright and capable — probably more clever than I am. In fact, they are quite patient with this old fuddy–duddy,” she said with a smile. That affection is not lost on her students. They genuinely appreciate how she not only strives to improve the profession, but how deeply she cares about them personally. “Dr. Mitcham has an amazing ability to point out the strengths in you that you

often don’t see in yourself. Whether sitting in class or having a one-on-one conversation with her you always walk away inspired to work hard and use your talents to benefit those in your sphere of influence,” said Kelly Anderson, an OT student. Mitcham did not expect to stay at MUSC for the better part of her professional career, but is glad she has. “I’ve been here since 1984. I never imagined I would spend 30 years in one place. I’ve bloomed where I’ve been planted. I’ve moved in different directions, played different roles, and had a strong sense of professional work. 2014 MUSC Teaching Excellence Award -Educator Mentor Academic/ Scholarship Michelle Woodbury, PhD, OTR/L, Department of Health Sciences and Research “I believe that Dr. Woodbury is one of those rare and truly gifted teachers. She makes learning fun, interesting and most important – real.” This statement was included in a 2001 letter submitted by Becki Trickey, Ph.D., in support of colleague Dr. Michelle Woodbury for MUSC’s Developing Teaching of the Year award. Woodbury won the 2001 honor and is this year’s recipient of MUSC’s EducatorMentor award in the Scholarship-Academic category. What Trickey said about Dr. Woodbury in 2001 remains true today. The purpose of this award is to recognize members of the MUSC faculty who have made outstanding contributions to the university through teaching. Dr. Woodbury is an assistant professor in the Department of Health Sciences and Research with a secondary appointment in the Occupational Therapy Division. Her educational philosophy, she says, is rooted in her many years of clinical experience, and from that “I desire that my students … gain technical skills, but more importantly come to realize the enormous responsibility and privilege of treating someone’s loved one.” Part of her regimen involves an intensive neurological “boot camp,” where students take their morning classroom lessons and apply them that afternoon working with patients recovering from strokes or spinal cord injuries. Although it is an exhausting exercise, it receives high marks from students. “Dr. Michelle Woodbury is an outstanding teacher who is truly passionate about her subject matter and her students,” states a student in

an evaluation typical of the feedback Woodbury receives. 2013 College of Health Professions Teacher of the Year Angela Mund, PhD, Director Anesthesia for Nurses Division Dr. Angela Mund, Assistant Professor and Director for the Anesthesia for Nurses Division, displays tremendous passion for teaching and healthcare policy. Her advocacy for her field has inspired students and clinicians to be politically active in their profession. It has also earned her the 2013 Teacher of the Year Award. This award recognizes the teaching excellence of a College of Health Professions faculty member holding the academic rank of Instructor or higher. A student stated, “When I entered the field, I was unaware of the commitment and dedication I would have toward this profession. I am inspired through Dr. Mund’s ambition to constantly teach her students current, safe practice and utilize all effective teaching methods to reach each student and make an impact.”

His great attitude always keeps others smiling. Not only does Mr. Melancon inspire those around him, he provides exceptional service, and generates enthusiasm in others through his work to support important College and University-wide initiatives. Mr. Melancon level of professionalism and dedication is evident given this is his second time to receive the College of Health Professions Annual Legend Award. 2013-2014 Staff Quarterly Champions Awards Ms. Sandy Bennett (Administrative Support- Dean’s Office, 1st Qtr. 2014) anticipates needs, works after hours even when not asked and takes the initiative to problemsolve. Her efforts have made such a difference in the Dean’s Office that Dean Saladin stated, “I can’t imagine working without her.” It is clear that Ms. Bennett takes pride in her role and that she cares about the quality of the work she does for the College. Individuals both internal and external to MUSC have commented on how wonderful Ms. Bennett is to work with and that they can count on her to professionally complete any task. Mr. Dave Evatt (Student Services, 1st Qtr. 2014) has become an integral member of the Physician Assistant Studies (PAS) program, owing to his absolute reliability, hard work, diligence, attention to details, perceptiveness, and superb communication skills. He is proactive and focused on excellence, both for himself and the PAS program. Regardless of the event or activity, Mr. Evatt gives his all, and his contributions make the lives of each of our faculty, staff, and students much easier, with outcomes that are professional and organized. He diplomatically helps to guide processes while not overstepping his role.

Ms. Leslie Brady (Development, 2nd Qtr. 2014) has made important contributions in all areas of MUSC excellence. Ms. Brady is one of the most positive, friendly and cheerful persons in the College. She knows everybody by name including hundreds of students. Brady has a can do attitude about everything and can be counted on to volunteer her time for extra activities. Her total commitment to customer service shines through every day as she relates to students, parents, faculty, staff, alumni, donors, and potential stakeholders with cordiality. The College has had a record year in advancing philanthropy as a direct result of Brady’s commitment to the College. Ms. Elizabeth Walker (Research Administration Team, 2nd Qtr. 2014) is a leading example of a team player in every sense of the word. Her attitude is one of collaboration and creativity, which contributes to the efficiency and effectiveness of her productivity. “She inspires me to strive for always doing my best and being willing to try new things,” stated a colleague. One of many examples of Walker’s willingness to go above and beyond was when she was charged with managing the arrangements for a national meeting. Not only was Walker able to assist multiple team members with registration, travel details, and many other needs, she also assisted individuals who lived out of state. Walker was timely and dedicated in making the arrangements, documents were printed and delivered, and reimbursements were processed appropriately. Ms. Walker “inspires and motivates others to take advantage of opportunities to enhance their own lives whether professionally or personally,” said a colleague. Ms. Paula Butler (Finance & Administration, 3rd Qtr. 2014) was recognized for helping the Research Team with the College’s financials and going the extra mile. First, with the complex, multi-project University of Delaware subaward, Ms. Butler modified how the grants are typically set up in the financial workbooks. She also worked with Grants & Contracts Accounting to be sure the funds would flow to the proper accounts. Secondly, the Research Administration Team was

down to the wire in completing adjustments by a particular deadline and ran into problems one Friday afternoon. To prevent the Research Administration Team from having to work the weekend, Butler stayed late to fix the problem. A colleague stated, Butler “contributes to productivity, provides high quality service, ensures the highest standards of excellence, takes on challenging opportunities, and contributes to integrity of the College’s fiscal practices.” Ms. JoAnn King (Research Administration, 3rd Qtr. 2014) was instrumental in achieving the miraculous – multiple times. In the process of negotiating an event contract with a local resort, King was instrumental in re-negotiating the required deposits to half the original amount. Then, in the midst of an ice storm, King was able to get all the required documentation over to Office of Procurement for processing, including approval by Legal Counsel with a tight deadline. Another example of King deserving this award relates to the CHP Research Administration Team’s petty cash account to use for payments to study participants. The petty cash funds needed to be replenished due to a significant increase in the number of studies. King’s meticulous attention to this very important issue has enabled the Research Administration Team to continue to provide an important service to research in the College. A colleague stated, King “is an essential member of the Research Administration Team, raising the bar and setting a great example of teamwork.” Ms. Debra Battjes Siler (Research Administration, 4th Qtr. 2014) was recognized for her assistance in helping a faculty member submit an NIH grant application. The faculty member stated that she could not have taken this next big step in her career without the tireless efforts of Siler and her team who answered all questions and provided the necessary resources to put the complex application together. Ms. Siler communicated with the faculty member at 7:00 pm or later to meet the submission deadline. The College has had an exceptional year of grant awards with the administrative leadership of Ms. Siler.
Mr. Chad Higgins (Clinical Education, 4th Qtr. 2014) was recognized for going above and beyond to assist with student events. Higgins volunteered to help with the off-campus hooding ceremonies and then came back to campus to help prepare the Atrium for the CVP Dearing Lecture. Higgins also volunteered to stay during the ceremony and was in the Atrium early the next workday to help move furniture. His colleague made the point that he can always count on Higgins to be helpful, courteous and positive when there are tasks to be done, and added that Higgins is usually the first to volunteer and always stays as long as needed. Mr. Chad Higgins’ attitude encourages a culture of teamwork.

Department of Health Sciences Professions and Research Overview The Department of Health Sciences and Research had an outstanding year with $5,232,414 in total funding to include $4.5 million in National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding. The Department has established long term stability in research with two large five Dr. Steven Kautz, year grants: $10.8 million ($2.2 Department Chair million this academic year) NIH-funded “South Carolina Research Center for Recovery from Stroke” and a $3.0 million NIH-funded “Delaware CTR” ($1.3 million this academic year, from a subcontract on a $19.9 million award to the University of Delaware). Another new award to highlight is an NIH R21 to Dr. Michael Saladin “Reducing Smoking Cue Reactivity & Behavior via a Retrieval-Extinction Mechanism” ($224,250 this academic year). This is the second NIH award received by Dr. Saladin in less than four months, a remarkable achievement in this time of declining NIH funding.
The award of the multidisciplinary “South Carolina Research Center for Recovery from Stroke (SCRCRS),” a prestigious NIH Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE), represents a significant achievement for the College.
NIH Center of Biomedical Research Excellence Award Dr. Steven Kautz led the planning of the COBRE award and serves as principal investigator (PI) with Dr. Robert Adams of Neurology in the College of Medicine as Co-PI. The NIH Center funds multiple department investigators, including Drs. Kautz, Gregory, Bowden and Woodbury and features CRRNC laboratories as a key core resource – the Quantitative Behavioral Assessment and Rehabilitation (QBAR) Core. Other investigators from departments of Neurology, Neuroscience, Radiology, Psychiatry and Medicine in the College of Medicine will be a part of this award. The department would also house the South Carolina Research Center for Recovery from Stroke (SCRCRS) administrative Core. SCRCRS is
28
synergistic with the South Carolina Collaborative Alliance for Stroke Trials (SC-CoAST) Regional Coordinating Center in the NIH/NINDS Stroke Trial Network (PI: Dr. Ed Jauch, Chief of Division of Emergency Medicine in the College of Medicine). It provides the infrastructure to coordinate and conduct NIH NINDS funded clinical trials. Dr. Kautz represents the College as a member of the Executive Committee for the SCRCRS Center. Faculty Accomplishments Drs. Michelle Woodbury and Chris Gregory were promoted to Associate Professor. This promotion is generally considered to reflect that an investigator has established sustaining, independent research programs; has a reputation of national standing in their field; and has achieved excellence in scholarship, external funding, teaching and service. Drs. Woodbury and Gregory had an award winning year and received external funding. Dr. Woodbury received the MUSC Foundation’s Teaching Excellence Award in the category of EducatorMentor. Dr. Gregory received the CHP Developing Scholar of the Year Award. In addition, each was awarded a highly competitive Delaware-CTR pilot grant – “FES Cycling to Improve Locomotor Function Post-Stroke” by Dr. Gregory and “A Virtual Environment for Stroke Rehabilitation” by Dr. Woodbury. MUSC investigators were only awarded two pilot awards and both were received by faculty in this Department. Dr. Woodbury was also awarded a highly competitive SCTR Discovery pilot grant (for $30,000), which she ultimately turned down to accept the Delaware-CTR pilot grant (for $88,500). The College is exceptionally proud of Drs. Woodbury and Gregory. The Department has funded its first postdoctoral researcher – Dr. Christian Finetto from the University of Padua in Italy. Dr. Finetto was at MUSC in 2013 to work on his dissertation and his outstanding performance during his graduate studies proved that he would be an ideal postdoctoral researcher. Dr. Finetto will be working with Drs. Woodbury and Kautz in the Upper Extremity Function laboratory and the Locomotor Energetics and Assessment Laboratory.

Department of Health Professions Overview The Department of Health Professions (DHP) has five professional practice programs within the College of Health Professions: Anesthesia for Nurses, Cardiovascular Perfusion, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy and Physician Assistant Studies. All of the programs Dr. Richard Segal, are nationally ranked and have Department Chair outstanding students and faculty. These programs have some of the most selective admissions in the country. Through their outstanding students and faculty, interprofessional education is transferred from the classroom into practice. For example, the Community Aid, Relief, Education and Support (CARES) Clinic provides an opportunity for students from different professions to work together. The use of simulation is also pervasive in DHP and the Department has some of the leaders in simulation within these professions. This past year, the Department has also instituted a seed grant program to help further develop collaboration between the Divisions, and to collaborate with other units in the College and MUSC. The goal is to fully integrate research, education and clinical practice for students and faculty to best serve the people of South Carolina and beyond.

Student Accomplishments The AFN Class of 2014 received the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) Public Relations Award for their efforts that included multiple presentations to high school and college students, an ice cream social detailing the education and roles of CRNAs, and community fundraising. The award was presented at the AANA 2013 Annual Meeting Opening Ceremonies in Las Vegas, NV.
Division of Cardiovascular Perfusion The Cardiovascular Perfusion Program prepares its graduates to work as Certified Clinical Perfusionists (CCP) in a variety of health-care settings where cardiopulmonary life support services are required. The Division of Cardiovascular Perfusion offers the Bachelor of Science in Cardiovascular Perfusion degree. Cardiovascular perfusionists are typically employed in cardiac surgical centers and operate the heart-lung machine during open-heart surgery. They serve as experts in associated technologies such as ventricular assist devices and are involved in all aspects of intraoperative blood conservation and management. The Division of Cardiovascular Perfusion completed its first full year as a separate entity from the clinical perfusion service in the Medical University Hospital at MUSC. The pass rate for the 15 students graduating in 2013 on the American Board of Cardiovascular Perfusion National Certification Exam was 100%. Twelve CVP students graduated in May 2014 with job offers.
Master’s Degree Planning The Cardiovascular Perfusion program is developing a planning summary to present to the college to become a post-baccalaureate perfusion program starting in 2016. This is a proactive measure in anticipation of changes in the field of perfusion, to maintain the program’s status at the forefront of cardiovascular perfusion education.

While the primary mission is to help meet the primary health care needs of South Carolina’s and the nation’s citizens, PAS remains dedicated to providing compassionate care to all persons, regardless of location. In support of this mission to serve, 25 second- and third-year PAS students participated in international medical mission trips to Nicaragua and Uganda in conjunction with Palmetto Medical Initiative. These experiences provided students an opportunity to improve their clinical skills while helping patients in need, growing as compassionate providers. One student commented: “My experience in Uganda acted as the reminder to me about why I have always wanted to go into healthcare; to help and heal those around me, no matter what walk of life they come from.” Another student commented that the experience “taught me a lot about people and gave me a deeper appreciation and understanding of healthcare. I realized that healthcare really is a right, but it’s one that many people are not able to access.” Faculty April Vargus departed the faculty of PAS to join her family in a new venture. The PAS program welcomed Kelly Taylor, Instructor and Admissions Coordinator, to the Division.

Christie Family Establishes First Endowed Chair in the College of Health Professions Excerpt from MUSC Catalyst by Mike Hayes
T
The Christie family gathers at a special service at Grace Episcopal Church. L-R: Kathy Christie (daughter), Kathy Christie (daughter-in-law), Jim Christie, Stuart Christie, Alexander Christie, Shelia Christie and Barbara Christie.
he College of Health Professions is uniquely and strategically poised to continue building upon the College’s achievements and success, through meaningful engagement that leads to philanthropic investments. It is a privilege and pleasure to foster these relationships. The College invites all who are interested to join this journey of national distinction in health professions’ education, research and service through public and private philanthropic support and partnerships. Mr. and Mrs. Christie raised their three children, Barbara, Kathy and Jim with the same ideals that had been passed on to them by their parents. Family, faith and traditions define what is important to the Christie family and for three generations, being active in their community and church has been an essential element of not only what they do, but who they are. “Our parents impressed upon us the importance of giving,” said Sheila. “And giving is not just about money; it’s about investing time and energy as well.” And that they have. Since moving to the Charleston area
38
full time in 1992, they have been involved in many worthwhile community endeavors, adding to the growth and success of each. In December 2013, the Christies made a weighty decision that will forever change the course of history. The family contributed a personal gift that will establish the very first endowed chair within the College of Health Professions. The Christie Family Endowed Chair in Stroke Rehabilitation Research will allow for the recruitment of a renowned expert to further the research currently being conducted at the college in that field. Barbara Christie, Stuart and Sheila’s eldest child, serves on the Dean’s Advancement Council at the college. Owing to her professional background, which included the marketing and sales of neurosurgical equipment, she recognized the need for advanced research in stroke rehabilitation.
Development and Alumni Relations
On the tour, the Christies saw a stroke patient who was participating in a research study. The patient was harnessed into equipment that allowed him to walk on a treadmill. Watching the patient trying his best just to keep his balance and walk touched something in Stuart. “That’s a soft spot in our hearts because of my brother. There was a motivation that was stirred up by seeing a man strapped in and wired to all parts of his brain that day. I thought to myself, back there somewhere (he motioned to his head) my brother remembered the Lord’s Prayer. I envisioned some of these wires picking up something in his brain. Even if this technology can’t help him, I know it will help others.” As a result of the tour, Sheila was happy to learn that there was hope for people even years after their stroke. “I didn’t know they could take someone who had suffered a stroke years before and still help them years later. I knew they could help immediately, but to help someone five years out is astounding,” she said.
“We are most grateful to the Christie family whose generosity and partnership will forever impact our stroke rehabilitation research. Their support is truly transformational.” Lisa Saladin, Ph.D., Dean Last fall Barbara visited the college’s Center for Rehabilitation Research in Neurological Conditions and toured the laboratories. At the end of the tour, she could hardly wait to share with her parents the extraordinary things MUSC was doing for stroke patients. “I knew that my parents would be very moved by it,” she said, “especially with all that my uncle has endured.” Donald Christie, Stuart’s brother, suffered a debilitating stroke during a carotid artery procedure, six years ago at the age of 76. To this day, he remains paralyzed on his right side and unable to speak. Although he is able to maneuver through his daily routine, it takes a great deal of time and effort to complete even the simplest chore. He and his wife devised a sign language of sorts to communicate with each other. The stroke has presented a very difficult situation for the family and Stuart shared a touching story. “Prior to Christmas one year, the church my brother and his family attend had a special service for those with physical handicaps. As the congregation began to sing the processional hymn, ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing,’ much to everyone’s surprise Donald sang the hymn with everyone else. When it was time for the Lord’s Prayer, he recited the prayer aloud.” After that service, his brother returned to not being able to speak. Based on results of prior therapies, the Christies’ expectations were not high. But after visiting MUSC’s laboratories and watching first–hand the impact of the research, they knew they had to get involved. Stuart said, “Dean Lisa Saladin took us over to see this program and it blew my mind. I have enough of an engineer’s mind to understand what they were trying to do and I was completely impressed by it. Later, I said to Sheila, ‘I think we need to do something.’”
The College of Health Professions is ecstatic about the prospects of this newly endowed chair, and the Christies feel honored to be a part of something so life–changing.
It has been said that actions speak louder than words. Every day, in many ways, the values parents hold dear are on display for their children to observe and mirror. For Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Christie, the way in which they have chosen to invest their time, talents and treasure has said a great deal over the years to their children about what is truly important in life.

Overview
F
iscal year 2014 began the University’s second year of the transition to the Responsibility Centered Management (RCM) funding model. Revenues increased to nearly $30.9M in fiscal year 2014 with expenses of $28M. Our expenses included $6.2M in University allocations to pay for central support as well as $4.2M in contributions to the University Strategic Fund. Despite transitioning to a new financial model, the College was able to realize a $2.8M margin in 2014. Three primary factors contributed to this positive margin. First, our College does not budget for unknown research activity due to the unpredictable nature of research funding. However, our investment in research produced outstanding outcomes last year. We realized $1.5 million dollars in unexpected research related revenues that contributed to this positive margin. Secondly, student tuition is often difficult to predict at budget time as we must account for attrition rates, residency status of students who matriculate and total class size. After our budget was submitted, there were significant changes in these three areas that were not anticipated and over $1.1 million was realized in unanticipated student tuition. Lastly, several key faculty vacancies were not filled last year so these expenses were budgeted but were not realized.

Financial Highlights
The College has experienced significant growth in research, educational programs and student numbers. This growth is contributing to the financial stability of the College which will assist us in pursuing and developing proposals for new initiatives and educational programs that will occur in the near future. Our newest educational program, the Masters in Health Informatics degree, is scheduled to begin in the fall of 2016. Due to our anticipated positive margin, we took the opportunity to invest in some capital projects and maintenance/upgrades in 2013/2014. Additional technology upgrades to our classrooms and facilities were installed and new laptops were also purchased and distributed to all faculty and staff. The College’s Five Year Information Technology Plan will be completed one year ahead of schedule due to the investments made in technology over the last two years. The College was also able to fund many maintenance related items associated with our buildings. The atrium lighting, student Cyber CafÊ and Student Life floors, and elevator floors in both of our buildings on Rutledge Avenue were all replaced. Other maintenance enhancements were also addressed this year. The new entrance ramp to our research facility is also nearing completion and will aid in assisting with building access for our disabled population.
