The third degree for nursing
BACHELOR’S DEGREES MUSCLE OUT FORMER PATHWAYS TO PROFESSION BY BILL FALLON bfallon@westfairinc.com
S
ue Brown, senior vice president for patient care services at Greenwich Hospital, said recently of the 700 nurses she oversees, “They are the backbone of patient care.” Brown’s counterpart at Bridgeport Hospital, MaryEllen Kosturko, oversees 850 nurses. “We have 650 frontline-bedside of a total 850 nurses,” she said. “Those not involved bedside are in leadership positions, care management, education and they are still providing care away from the bedside. They make an incredible team.”

In past generations, the ranks of nurses have often been filled with graduates of diploma and associate-degree programs. The Bridgeport Hospital School of Nursing has run such a diploma program for 131 years and it now has 120 students enrolled. But it, and other programs like it, are fading, both administrators said. Kosturko said the Bridgeport program is now transitioning to the University of Bridgeport School of Nursing and a shift to the bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree, with the restructuring to be completed by 2017. “We still have some nurses with associate degrees, but because the science is what it is, » NURSES, page 13
A breath of lifesaving air DANBURY COMPANY DELIVERS INHALABLE INSULIN BY DANIELLE BRODY dbrody@westfairinc.com HAKAN EDSTROM, MANNKIND CORP.’S CEO, IS A PATIENT MAN. His biopharmaceutical company has the technology to turn it into a $2 billion business. However, acceptance of its patented product to deliver drugs in inhalable form has been slow. The company’s flagship product is Afrezza, a rapid-acting insulin inhalant. “When you start something, which is a new concept it takes some time before it kind of gets traction,” Edstrom, also the presi-
dent and director, said in an interview in the company’s Danbury office. “It is a significant change in how to provide the therapy.” Ma n n K i nd i nvented Technosphere, a patented technology that delivers airborne drugs. The company’s headquarters is currently in Valencia, Calif., but Edstrom said all operations will move to Danbury within the year, where MannKind occupies two buildings, totaling 360,000 square feet. The company employs about 280 people, including manufacturers, biochemists and microbiologists. Because of the millions of
diabetes patients and the crucial need for insulin, there was hype leading up to Afrezza’s commercial release in February, Edstrom said. He said investors expected it to be an automatic success. Afrezza has a competitive advantage, reaching peak concentration in the blood at least 30 minutes faster than injected insulin, Edstrom said. The small whistle-like structure allows patients to inhale insulin right before a meal, whereas with traditional therapies, patients have to time injections to a meal, leaving more potential for error. Still, there is a learning curve
for doctors and diabetes patients, Edstrom said. Edstrom admits the slow commercial success of the drug and volatile stock frustrate shareholders. “The stock has a long way to go,” Edstrom said. He said MannKind has a $2 billion market capitalization, a large amount for a company that’s just starting out. MannKind shares numbered 412.3 million as of June 30. Edstrom said he does not read stock market message boards, where investors speculate the price is low and talk can turn to stock manipulation. Edstrom » INSULIN, page 16
Terex to merge with Finnish supplier
W
estport-based heavy equipment maker Terex Corp. and the Finnish supplier of such equipment, Konecranes Plc, jointly announced Aug. 11 that they were planning to merge in an all-stock deal pending regulatory and shareholders’ approvals. “This merger brings together two great businesses and through synergies provides another lever that is within our control to deliver value-creation to both the shareholders of Terex and Konecranes,” Terex CEO Ron DeFeo said in a statement. “We have a deep respect for Konecranes and look forward to joining forces with them to build a stronger and more diverse company
that will be in an excellent position to succeed in a dynamic and highly competitive global industry.” The merged company would be named Konecranes Terex Plc with an estimated revenue of $10.8 billion. Upon approval, Terex shareholders would own 60 percent of the company that would be incorporated in Finland. Closing is expected early next year. Terex shareholders would receive 0.80 shares of Konecranes for each of their Terex shares. “With a focus on lifting and material handling solutions, Konecranes Terex will be in an excellent position to deliver enhanced growth in revenue and mar-
gins through several strategic advantages, including significant cross-selling opportunities,” said Stig Gustavson, chairman of Konecranes. “Together, we will have the opportunity to expand what Konecranes and Terex have built and become even stronger in the future.” Terex was founded in 1933 as the Euclid Co., which designed and built huge haul trucks. General Motors bought the company in 1953 and had such success with the offhighway dump truck division that the U.S. Department of Justice filed an antitrust suit against GM to end manufacture and sale of the trucks in the U.S. for four years. In addition, GM was forced to divest parts of the
business and the brand name. GM created a new division named Terex for terra or earth and rex as in king. GM sold Terex in the early 1980s, but a resulting bankruptcy by the new owner reverted ownership back to GM. In 1986, Northwest Engineering bought the company and over the next decade a number of acquisitions spurred growth resulting in Terex being listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1991. DeFeo joined the company in 1992 when it was based in Tulsa, Okla. A year later, the headquarters moved to Westport. The company has 20,400 employees worldwide. The combined company will have 32,000. — Bob Rozycki

GE sells health care lending business for $9 billion ‘A STRATEGIC INVESTMENT’
F
airfield-based GE will sell $8.5 billion of its health care-related loans and its Healthcare Financial Services U.S. lending business to Capital One for approximately $9 billion, the company announced Aug. 11. It also signed an agreement to sell its HFS real estate equity investments to another buyer for approximately $600 million. “This announcement is the next step in GE’s transformation to a more focused industrial company,” said Keith Sherin, GE Capital chairman and CEO, in the company’s statement. In April the company announced it would sell most of its Norwalk-based GE Capital assets to focus on its high-value industrial businesses. GE Capital’s Healthcare Financial Services provides financing to U.S. health care companies, sponsors, investors and developers across various health care sectors including senior housing, hospitals, medical offices, outpatient services, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. GE Capital will retain the financing “verticals” that relate to GE’s industrial businesses, including a unit that provides healthcare equipment financing to GE Healthcare customers and others. Sherin said Capitol One is committed
2
to expanding the health care lending business. Darren Alcus, president and CEO of HFS, will join Capital One. Capital One also will retain the HFS management team and employees, GE said. “This is a strategic investment in a specialty industry segment that we have been building out for the past several years,” said Michael Slocum, president of Capital One’s Commercial Bank, in a company statement. “This addition will catapult us to a leading market position in providing financial services to the healthcare sector.” When completed, the transaction, which represents about $8.4 billion of ending net investment ($8.5 billion of assets), will contribute approximately $1.5 billion of capital to the overall target of approximately $35 billion of dividends expected to GE under this plan (subject to regulatory approval). With this transaction, the total for announced sales is approximately $78 billion. “We are on track to reduce our ending net investment by $100 billion by the end of 2015 and expect to be substantially done with our exit strategy by the end of 2016,” Sherin said.

GIOVANNI ROSELLI MUSCLES HIS WAY TO A MULTI-HYPHENATE CAREER BY MARY SHUSTACK Mshustack@westfairinc.com
I
t’s no surprise that an interview with Giovanni Roselli ends with him handing you more than one business card. After all, the Westchester-raised Fairfield County resident spends most days juggling a handful of careers with impressive precision. Getting together to chat is an exercise in coordination, though the end result is never in question. As Roselli assures, “I will make it happen!” And he certainly does, meeting with WAG on a summer morning at Equinox in Greenwich, where he’s carved out a slot from 9:45 until he has to catch the 11:12 train to Manhattan – for business, of course. It’s all about the commitment, discipline and dedication Roselli brings to every aspect of his life. He is a personal trainer, having started with Equinox in Scarsdale nearly a decade ago. He now serves as not only a coach in the elite Tier 4 training program in Greenwich but also as an educator for the company on the national level. Roselli is also a fitness expert and model, involved in projects with Nike, writing a column for an online resource for professional trainers and serving as the model for the packaging of a product called Maxi Climber. But if his face is already familiar, it could be from Roselli’s other careers. For those who follow, he’s a longtime professional wrestler with World Wrestling Entertainment and then independent circuits, whose credits include the 2006 defeat of Vampiro in Palermo, Italy, to capture the Nu-Wrestling Evolution heavyweight title. And he’s also an actor who’s worked with Academy Award-nominated Mickey Rourke in “The Wrestler” and Tina Fey and Amy Poehler in “Baby Mama,” starred as Tony in 2014’s “Jersey Shore Massacre,” appeared on the “Batman”-inspired show “Gotham” and, most recently, had a memorable turn in the premiere of Showtime’s wry new Steve Coogan comedy, “HAPPYish.” Not bad for the guy who calls himself “a skinny kid who wasn’t known for being athletic.” Roselli would graduate from Harrison High School and Sacred Heart University, where studies included sports management and business. “Many people peak in college, and I was just getting started in college,” he says. Post-college, the longtime wrestling fan found himself living in Kentucky as part of the WWE minor-league system. “I got called up to the RAW roster,” he says of the marquee division. And, basically, he never looked back.

“My first match on live TV was at Madison Square Garden,” he says, smiling at the memory of meeting longtime idol Hulk Hogan backstage. “You talk about full circle… That’s when I knew you could achieve anything in life.” It has been a career that brought Roselli around the world. WAG asks what name or character he wrestled under? “You’re going to find this hard to believe that I was called Romeo,” he says with a dazzler of a smile. Wrestling and fitness would go hand in hand. “I got into fitness because I wanted to get in shape for wrestling,” he says. Eventually, he says, “It led me down this road,” to a related career in fitness training and education. “Equinox opened my eyes to the fact I didn’t know a lot about exercise,” he says. Roselli, who proudly offers up that his success has come without any drugs or “shortcuts,” did have a few bumps in the road. At one point, Roselli needed a second shoulder surgery. Major orthopedic surgeries have included shoulder, knee and bicep. He traveled to noted specialist Dr. James Andrews in Alabama, with the surgery, subsequent physical therapy and living expenses wiping out the then-21-year-old’s life savings. But, he says, it was an investment in his future. With Equinox, Roselli says he has learned a lot for himself – but also much he can pass along. “Now I can start, after nine years, I can give back a little,” he says of his expanding into fitness education. Roselli’s life in the world of sports and fitness led him, most naturally, to yet another career, acting. “It transitioned from wrestling,” he says with a laugh. “I was a professional wrestler. It was like theater.” Now a member of SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists), Roselli’s a New York-based actor with an agent. “A lot of wrestlers go into acting because (they think) ‘What do I do now?’” he says. For him, it was a more conscious choice. He wanted to approach it by “learning and studying your craft.” It’s never easy, he says. “On most auditions you’re not going to get them, and you have to understand this. …You learn to have some really thick skin in acting. To me, there’s life lessons all around us.” And some of those include the fact of typecasting. “Let’s face it,” he says. “I kind of look a

certain way.” So, he says, he’s often sent out on calls for “an athletic, fit type.” These roles, as New York firefighters or Jersey Shore characters, he says get him more experience and propel him farther, since he knows he can do more. He’s also ready for more traditional roles and has performed Shakespeare Off-Broadway. Wrestling these days is relegated to occasional weekends. “As a full-time job, that is in the past,” Roselli says. He has, he notes, had people urge him to focus on just one career, but he sees no need. As he reminds his clients, you can always make time “for what you want to make time for.” All, he adds, fits seamlessly into his home life. Roselli is married some four years, to a reading specialist named Stacey, a woman he met at… the gym. “I proposed to her on the red carpet of the SAG Awards,” he says, smiling at the memory. Roselli, who clearly makes time to work out and eat clean, credits his wife for unwavering support that includes the meals he often carries with him for a day filled with appointments. “I try to, obviously, practice what I preach.” But he’s not immune to those food temptations. “Do I have a piece of cake now and then? Yeah, every now and then, but it’s not overboard,” he says. And you believe him when he says he has “really strong self- control” that allows him to “flip a switch.” It’s a skill that gives Roselli that focus that has led him this far – but he’s far from done. “The journey never ends, no matter what. I could always be better,” he says. “I know from my life experiences, you can do anything if you put your heart in it.” A version of this story originally appeared in WAG, the FCBJ sister publication.

Annual tax holiday begins
D
uring Connecticut’s 15th annual tax holiday week, a $6 million loss for the state will be a gain for shoppers. From Aug. 16-22, retailers will not charge the state sales and use taxes for most items of clothing and footwear costing less than $100, according to the Department of Revenue Services. The legislature reduced the tax-free maximum from the yearly $299.99 to $99.99 in this year’s biannual budget. The state expects to forego about $6 million in sales and use tax, about $1 million less than in 2014. Department of Revenue Services Commissioner Kevin B. Sullivan said the annual “tax holiday” has become a staple of Connecticut’s back-to-school shopping season. Many retailers schedule sales to coincide with sales tax-free week. According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), a Washington, D.C.-based trade association, the combined spending for back-toschool and college shopping is second to the winter holiday shopping season. In a recent NRF study, families with children grades kindergarten through 12 reported planning to spend an average of $630 on pre-school shopping. Laura Budd, marketing associate at the New Canaan Chamber of Commerce, said she put information about the tax holiday in the chamber’s newsletter. She said the tax savings is a good incentive for residents to shop local. “It’s a terrific opportunity for families to take advantage when they’re in the process of making back-to-school investments,” Budd said. “I know the stores are aware of it and are getting stocked for back to school. I’m sure it will be a mutually beneficial week for the stores and the shoppers.” More information about what is and is not exempt during the week is available at www. ct.gov/drs. — Danielle Brody
Bridgeport to gain 56 new apartments
A
residential project being developed by Riverbank Landing LLC at 3336 Fairfield Ave. in Bridgeport — originally envisioned as condos before switching to a 56 rental-unit blueprint last year — hosted a progress tour recently attended by developer Arthur Hersch and Bridgeport Mayor Bill Finch. In granting a tax incentive for the project as rentals in June, the city’s Office of Planning and Economic Development noted the condo market was less favorable than rentals. Hersch at that time said the project had been 11 years in the planning. Completion is slated for next month and the website Riverbanklandingapartments.
com is accepting applications for what it bills as “brand new, spacious one- and two-bedroom luxury apartments.” The project is linked to the yet-tobe-built Ash Creek Pedestrian Bridge. The state Department of Transportation will fund $3.8 million for a 160-foot steel truss span that will provide greater access for Bridgeporters to the Fairfield MetroNorth train station. The money and bridge are part of a local and regional push to bring development closer to transit hubs. “With a walkway width of 14 feet, the bridge will be a safe and convenient improvement to Bridgeport’s transit-
oriented development,” the city said in a statement. No completion date was given. “This bridge really is a critical linchpin for the neighborhood in terms of providing access to the train and from the train to allow commuters both out of the neighborhood and into the neighborhood,” state Rep. Steve Stafstrom, D-Bridgeport, whose district includes the Black Rock section, said in a statement. “Our business district is really just a stone’s throw away.” “There has recently been a lot of activity on Fairfield Avenue, with new businesses and restaurants moving in at an exciting pace,” Finch said. — Bill Fallon

Survey: State’s economy remains in slow motion
ive-plus years after the end of the recession, Connecticut’s economy remains in a pattern of slow growth, according to a survey released recently by the Connecticut Business Industry Association and Farmington Bank. “Overall, businesses see conditions continuing as stable, with hiring slowly on the mend, a slight increase in capital investments, and improving credit availability,” CBIA economist Pete Gioia said. The 2015 CBIA/Farmington Bank 2nd Quarter Economic and Credit Availability Survey found a little more than half (52 percent) of surveyed business leaders see their firm’s outlook as stable while 34 percent forecast improvement and 18 percent expect worsening conditions. Those findings mimic the results from the first quarter, when 51 percent saw sta-
S
ble conditions, 37 percent expected growth and 11 percent expected a decline.
Employment
Attitudes toward increased hiring dampened with about two-thirds (67 percent) of respondents stating the size of their workforce will remain unchanged (compared with 58 percent in the previous quarter), with 23 percent expecting to add employees in the near term (versus 28 percent in the first quarter). However, 10 percent of respondents said they expected to cut the size of their workforce, compared with 14 percent the previous quarter.
Investment
According to the survey, 59 percent of respondents plan on making capital
and 38 percent from Congress’ failure to re-authorize the Export-Import Bank. • 51 percent said the state’s lending climate was average, with 28 percent calling it good or excellent. • 80 percent were able to address their borrowing needs during the quarter. “The state’s credit environment continues to improve, and companies can plan on lending institutions being ready to help when the time comes,” said John Patrick Jr., CEO and president of Farmington Bank. The survey was sponsored by Farmington Bank, Datacore Partners LLC and CBIA; and was emailed to 1,585 Connecticut business leaders in July. A total of 203 responded, for a 12.8 percent response rate and a margin of error of plus or minus 7 percent. — Reece Alvarez
First County Aboard Again for Oyster Fest
tamford-based First County Bank will again sponsor the annual Norwalk Seaport Association’s Oyster Festival, this year being held Sept. 11 – 13, at Veterans Park, adjacent to Norwalk Harbor on Seaview Avenue. The bank has been an ongoing supporter of the festival since 2007 and is once again the event’s presenting sponsor. Entertainment headliners on the main stage include John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band on Friday; Dennis DeYoung: The Music of STYX on Saturday; and Smash Mouth on Sunday. In addition, dozens of regional musicians will perform over the course of the weekend on The Hour/ Heineken stage. Returning after their popular debut last year will be the Nerveless Nocks Thrill Show, aerial stunt artists that perform motorcycle high-wire acts and other daredevil stunts. Past attractions returning include the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show, a craft beer tent with more than 25 beers, an expanded food court, the Arts & Crafts Pavilion with more than 100 artisans and crafters, the oyster slurping contest and more. “As a community bank, we have a commitment to support local nonprofit organizations and to help make a difference in the lives of people in our communities,” said Rey Giallongo, chairman and CEO of First County Bank. “We are proud to participate as the presenting sponsor of the 2015 Norwalk Oyster Festival and to help publicly showcase and raise awareness of the area’s maritime heritage.” — Bill Fallon

investments, primarily in production or sales, compared with 56 percent in the first quarter, when investment priorities were shared across production, operations, and technology. “These results reinforce that Connecticut’s experiencing a slow growth economy,” Gioia said. Finding new customers was the dominant concern for businesses (31 percent) during the quarter, while 21 percent listed a shortage in skilled workers, followed by taxes (20 percent). Other survey findings: • 51 percent say China’s stock market correction will have a negative impact on their business. • 47 percent anticipate problems stemming from the Greek fiscal crisis, 39 percent from Puerto Rico’s financial issues,

Who gets the house in a divorce?
“I
love my house; I don’t want to sell it.” “I just want to keep the house until my kids go to college.” “I want to get rid of the house before we are divorced, but my spouse won’t agree.” “The house is in my name, so do I get to keep it?” These are among the common refrains we hear from clients as early as the initial divorce consultation. The answers are not necessarily simple. First off, for the purposes of equitable distribution, it doesn’t matter if title is held in the name of one spouse or the other, or both. It is marital property and subject to equitable distribution pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes (CGS) section 46b-81. Next, the court does not have jurisdiction to order the house sold during the pendency of a divorce action, as the CGS section 46b-81(a) authorizes the court to do so only at the time of dissolution. However, the parties may agree otherwise. Whether or not to hold on to the house and for how long depends on the overall financial circumstances of the divorcing parties. But in every case a spouse who thinks he or she wants to hang on to the house needs to determine if it is affordable based on the allocation of assets and support, if any. Other considerations, such as tying up one’s equity or waiting until a child goes off to school, also come in to play. A court has the authority at the time of the dissolution, to order the house sold, delay the sale for a period of time, or order it transferred from one spouse to another. Be very careful about asking for the house to be transferred to one spouse. That spouse then assumes all the risk with regard to the value. For many years, lawyers regularly counseled clients, often women who wanted to stay in the house, that bargaining for that as an asset was a good deal. That is when houses regularly appreciated, especially in Fairfield County. In the last few years, we have seen many of these properties go upside down. The spouse who thought she was getting a good deal keeping the

Trump’s former Greenwich mansion for sale
D
onald Trump’s first mansion is for sale for $54 million in Greenwich. Set on 5.8 acres on a Greenwich peninsula, the $54 million, former first mansion of Donald Trump has been put up for sale. The flamboyant real estate mogul and current presidential hopeful purchased the home in 1982 with then-wife Ivanka for $4 million. Originally built in 1939, the 19,773-squarefoot Georgian Colonial-style main house and a guest house have eight bedrooms, 13 baths, a three-story rotunda foyer with double grand staircase, formal rooms overlooking views of the pool, grounds and the Long Island Sound. It features amenities such as a home theater, a putting green, multiple terraces and patios, tennis courts and three fullyequipped staff apartments as well as six waterfront acres and private boat dock. According to TopTenRealEstateDeals. com, which is currently featuring the property, the home originally incorporated many of the same materials used in the
remodeling of the Plaza Hotel in the early 1980s, of which Ivanka was involved, creating a residence dripping in gold leaf, elegant chandeliers and crown moldings. Following the Trumps divorce in 1991, Ivanka won the mansion in the property settlement and sold the home for $15 million in 1998. The mansion’s new owners immediately began a renovation to tone it down to more livable neutrals and added tennis courts as well as a 4,000-square-foot addition, which includes guest suites, a lap pool and a sauna. The listing agent is Tamar Lurie of Coldwell Banker in Greenwich. — Reece Alvare

Federal actions spur sunny options
n July 7, the Obama administration unveiled a series of executive actions and private-sector commitments designed primarily to make solar power more accessible for low-to-moderate income (LMI) communities. The initiatives seek to create opportunities to access solar energy for this largely overlooked segment of the population, including participation in the solar workforce and to advance “community solar” projects around the U.S. The administration is hoping to capitalize on the explosive growth in solar energy, driven primarily by plummeting installation costs (which have fallen by more than 50 percent since 2010) and increasingly favorable state energy policies. In the last year, according to the administration, the solar industry has added jobs at a rate 10 times faster than the rest of the economy. Among key elements of the new program: • setting a goal of installing 300 megawatts of solar energy at federally subsidized housing projects by 2020; • providing direct technical assistance to affordable housing groups that commit to the solar program, in order to help educate customers on the process of going solar; • improving access to Federal Housing Administration loan programs, under which eligible homeowners may borrow up to $25,000 to finance solar and other energy efficiency improvements; and • launching a public/private National Community Solar Partnership to help unlock access to solar energy for customers who are unable to install solar panels at their homes or businesses. To help meet these goals, the administration noted that a number of states, cities, nonprofits and investors had committed to building more than 260 solar energy projects in LMI communities or otherwise helping to further the development of community solar projects. Included in these commitments are pledges from 22 state and local public housing authorities to install solar and other types of renewable energy projects on their facilities. In addition, dozens of private sector companies announced a variety of new solar energy projects in LMI communities, including more than 30 member-owned rural electric cooperatives in 17 states. Private- and public-sector companies also have made financial commitments of more than $520 million to advance community solar for LMI Americans, led by Clean Energy Collective’s announcement that it had secured $400 million in financing to help grow community solar nationally. The centerpiece of the administration’s plan is the National Community Solar Partnership. This initiative builds on the growing interest at the state level in creating community or shared renewables programs as a means to expand access to clean
energy for tenants, businesses or homeown- National Community Solar Partnership will ers who lack a suitable location to site solar bring together federal agencies such as the panels. Using a concept known as “virtu- Energy, Agriculture and Housing and Urban al” or “remote” net metering, community Development departments and a host of solar projects permit multiple, unaffiliated nongovernmental organizations and solar customers in the same region of a state to developers to create innovative programs purchase a fixed entitlement to the energy using the community solar model, with a output of a large-scale solar project located specific focus on LMI customers. Among the nearby, with the project to be built, financed new community solar projects announced and operated by a third party (typically, an by the administration are Clean Energy experienced solar developer). In the last few Collective’s 900 kW solar project near years, Colorado, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Corpus Christi, Texas, and 1.2 MW solar projHawaii and, most recently, New York have ect in San Antonio, the first such projects to enacted community solar programs.

Connecticut also recently created a com- essary next step to further expanding the use munity solar pilot program, although its size of solar energy across the country. According to a recent report by the National Renewable and scope is quite limited. nearly According to the administration, the SCSU_Fairfield_CompSci_7.375x7.125_Layout 1Energy 12/6/13Laboratory, 1:11 PM Page 1 50 percent of U.S.
households and businesses are currently unable to host a solar system, largely due to physical limitations like shading, rooftop condition or orientation. The same report estimates that, with the help of enabling governmental policies and incentives, expanding solar access to such customers through community solar programs could increase solar deployment by up to 11,000 MW in the next 5 years. Solar programs such as the solar partnership, enabled by state policies to up customer participation, will create more opportunities to invest in and to develop large solar projects in our region and in the process help bring the economic and environmental benefits of clean energy to more Americans.

NEW HEALTH CARE PRACTICES
The third degree for nursing » From page 1
you really need a baccalaureate,” Brown said. “We encourage nurses to go back to school. But, of course, that limits the amount of nurses available. This will eventually even out and we will have that much higher a caliber of nurses.” Brown said Yale New Haven Health has embraced a federally chartered Institute of Medicine initiative to see 80 percent of nurses with a BSN by 2020.
“From preventive care to the sickest patients in the ICU, the beauty of nursing is that it possesses so many avenues that may be specific to your own personality.” — Sue Brown
As for nursing shortages that have made headlines in recent years, “I am an optimist,” Brown said. Her confidence is evident, buttressed by the appeal of the profession, “where there are always opportunities to grow. We believe nurses should be encouraged to work closely with physicians. If they have an interest in fertility, we encourage them to pursue those interests through study and different clinical work. Perhaps they will work with bariatric patients. New things arise all the time along with oppor-
tunities to study in areas that until recently were not even developed.” “I think Sue is optimistic because in Connecticut we are fortunate in bachelordegree programs,” Kosturko said. “The shortage is in nursing faculty. The next pressure is that students need hospitals.” Again, she said, this region is fortunate in number of hospitals. “The national picture outside Connecticut currently is an easing of the shortage, probably because the economy has kept baby boomers working longer,” Kosturko said. “But at some point in time, with a rapidly aging workforce that includes nurses, by 2025 we will have two times as large a nursing shortage as any shortage we have had since the 1960s.” An 18-month national study by USr, a health care staffing company, said a 3,259nurse shortage in Connecticut is predicted by 2030. Nearby, Massachusetts at that time is expected to have a 9,690-nurse surplus; Rhode Island is expected to lack 304 nurses by 2030. While New York is expected to need an additional 39,696 nurses. “Much will come down to where people retire,” Kosturko said. Kosturko said that, even with the ongoing push for BSN-level nurses, “We’re keeping the pipeline of new nurses open and this is important.” At the same time, the path through the pipeline offers greater opportunity. Brown said, “many, many nurses have gone for their master’s, even Ph.D.s.” Brown, who has an M.S. in nursing and 30 years nursing experience, said she had always envisioned herself a psychiatric nurse, but assisting with her first birth proved momentous and she shifted to obstetrics. Kosturko, whose Sacred Heart University master’s degree is in health systems management, spent most of her nonadministrative years as a nurse — with a BSN from Fairfield University — in the operating room. “In my years in the OR the biggest changes have been technology — including robotics — and the higher acuity of patients.”
MaryEllen Kosturko
Regarding acuity, she said, “I’m dating myself, but time was the patient arrived for surgery two days early, got comfortable, maybe got a shave and got ready. Now, the patient arrives the morning of the surgery. Post-op used to be two weeks; now it is three or four days, sometimes one or two. So, beyond the technology, the acuity of the medical condition has increased. That’s a big change.” Such change can be unsettling, but conversations with Kosturko and Brown revealed only enthusiasm. Said Kosturko, “I love nursing and I’m very passionate about it.” “From preventive care to the sickest patients in the ICU, the beauty of nursing is that it possesses so many avenues that may be specific to your own personality,” Brown said. In the practical world, that could mean one person is drawn to occupational therapy with its interpersonal aspects and another to the technicalities of critical care.
Said Brown, “Whatever the discipline, you have to have compassion and the desire to connect with people so you can be part of their health care. For an oncological nurse that might mean helping a person pass through to that other dimension or whatever you choose to believe. Or it could be seeing that perfect baby born. All nurses have different lives, but when we walk through this door we’re all part of the world of healing.” Brown said that regardless of the medical path, “Each nurse here has the opportunity to develop expertise and to be a part of the health continuum for the individual. “It is important that I, as a nurse, understand the medicine,” she said. “The best relationship between a doctor and a nurse is symbiotic and it is an integral part of health care.” The tsunami of technology that has washed over most industries crested first and fastest in medicine, visible to consumers via magnetic imaging. A less glamorous push — toward electronic medical records — was completed by the Yale New Haven system in 2012. “We are fully electronic now,” Brown said, a process that “took a lot of work.” Beyond patient data, other developments that require cutting-edge nursing include innovations in diagnostics, robotics and laparoscopic surgery. To keep up with so many technical and organizational changes, the Yale New Haven system operates so-called shared governance councils, where nurses meet with doctors and management. “We really listen to each other,” Kosturko said. Bridgeport Hospital became a corporate member of Yale-New Haven Health in 1995 and Greenwich Hospital in 1997. Additionally, St. Raphael Hospital in New Haven, a two-campus, 1,519-bed facility, became part of Yale New Haven in 2012. “It’s working very well,” said Kosturko. “From a nursing perspective we are able to standardize nursing practices across the entire Yale New Haven system, research the best practices and adopt them.”

Norwalk Hospital launches two breast cancer studies
orwalk Hospital has begun two clinical research trials for women with advanced (stage IV) breast cancer. The first trial will test whether a specific antibody — the anti-PDL1 — can improve the effects of chemotherapy for women with triple-negative breast cancer or TNBC. The anti-PDL1 antibody targets a patient’s immune system so that it can
recognize cancer cells and attack them, the hospital said in a prepared statement. The second trial is aimed at women who have inherited the BRCA genetic mutation that predisposes to breast and ovarian cancer and who have developed stage IV breast cancer. The BRCA trial will test if a new PARP inhibitor drug can improve the effective-
ness of chemotherapy to treat the disease. A mutation in the BRCA1 or 2 genes leads to defects in DNA repair, which predisposes carriers to breast, ovarian and other cancers. “Women with triple-negative breast cancer cannot be treated with hormonal therapies or anti-Her2 directed therapies such as the drug Herceptin,” said Richard
Zelkowitz, medical director of the Smilow Family Breast Health Center at Norwalk Hospital. “The only treatment available to them is chemotherapy. That is until now. The anti-PDL1 antibody unlocks the brakes
“PARP inhibitors have been approved for patients with the BRCA mutation who develop ovarian cancer, so we hope they will also be effective against breast cancer caused by the same genetic defect.”
— George Zahrah

on a patient’s immune system and has been very effective in a number of other cancers. We certainly hope it improves the treatment of women with TNBC.” George Zahrah, director of genetics at Norwalk Hospital, said, “PARP inhibitors have been approved for patients with the BRCA mutation who develop ovarian cancer, so we hope they will also be effective against breast cancer caused by the same genetic defect.” Study numbers regarding participants and funding were not available at press time.

Insulin — » From page 1
said he suspects the speculation comes from the slower-than-expected uptake of the drug. In an earnings call Aug. 10, MannKind CFO Matthew Pfeffer said the federal Securities Exchange Commission is aware of the allegations and is looking into it. Also during the call, it was announced the company was developing inhalable pulmonary hypertension and pain management drugs. Edstrom acknowledged some investors may believe French pharmaceutical company Sanofi, Afrezza’s marketing partner, is purposely shortchanging the company because it does not want the drug to overshadow its diabetes drugs Apidra, a mealtime insulin, and Toujeo, a long-acting insulin. He said he has seen no evidence of that. Although Toujeo launched around the same time, the two drugs have mostly separate sales forces, Edstrom said. Sanofi and MannKind increased the spending for its direct-to-consumer campaign and also has increased the number of sales representatives.
Edstrom said Apidra is insignificant in Sanofi’s portfolio and the company is looking to Afrezza to supplement it. “Sanofi wants us to be successful with Afrezza, as well,” he said. “They don’t really have a prandial (mealtime) product.” Sanofi targeted leading endocrinologists in its first phase, then focused on highprescribing diabetologists for phase two. Edstrom said Sanofi intentionally educated a small group of physicians to ensure the product would be used in the appropriate way. Sanofi also launched a website last month for patients and professionals as part of the Afrezza advertising campaign. Even as Afrezza awareness increases, Edstrom said its sales have also been restrained because of the four- to six-week process for patients to get a prescription. Patients need to find an endocrinologist, get a pulmonary function test, go through a 10-day introductory trial, then see the doctor again to get the prescription. Some doctors are not yet aware of Afrezza or when it’s appropriate to prescribe, he said, while others are not as willing to change what they have been prescribing.

Splash: An Art Exhibition Celebrating Summer Just when there seems to be no relief from the heat and humidity of summer, the C. Parker Gallery offers a refreshing respite. “SPLASH” is a group exhibition celebrating the wondrous days of summer. Selected members of the gallery’s roster in conjunction with several guest artists use both traditional iconography and contemporary metaphor to explore summer’s bounty. Highlights of the exhibition are Elizabeth Lennie’s largescale waterscapes that vividly capture the essence of the summer season. Lennie layers thin washes with thicker impasto techniques to attain an abundance of surface reflection and luminosity. Painter Nora Jackson employs an abstract, minimalist approach to rendering the seascape. Large color blocks of misty blue and foam green portray her deconstructed vision. For nearly a decade, the Canadian photographer Joshua Jensen Nagle has captivated the viewer with his large-format photography and panoramic images of beaches and their inhabitants. Complex and wistful, Nagle’s photographs capture the essence of our collective memory and nostalgia. Come to the C. Parker Gallery to escape the heat and immerse yourself in this spectacular exhibition. The gallery is at 17 E. Putnam Ave., Greenwich. For more information, call or
email C. Parker Gallery at 203-253-0934, email info@cparkergallery.com or visit the website at cparkergallery.com.

Beware Bogus Billings
T
he state is warning Connecticut businesses not to respond to bogus forms being sent by the “Division of Corporate Services” that seek payment for an “Annual Records Statement,” alleging that payment is required by state law.
f Simply because an email address contains the .us designation does not mean it is from the U.S. or any state government.
Scammers are attempting to fraudulently collect money from companies that need to comply with a state reporting requirement. “Businesses registered with the state of Connecticut are required by law to file only Annual Reports with our office, which are very minimal in nature,” said Secretary of the State Denise Merrill.
J
ames Baxter, Senior Vice President Development, U.S., at Boehringer Ingelheim, delivers the keynote address at our annual fall economic event.
“There is no legal requirement for any business to file the minutes or bylaws that this company is offering to file, in exchange for payment,” she added.
Hear about the challenges and opportunities for Connecticut’s biopharma industry and get fresh insights from leading economists and workforce development specialists on:
To avoid being defrauded by bogus mailings, businesses should: f Review the fine print. Often, a notice will state that it “does not officially represent the State of Connecticut or other government entity,” or something similar. However, not all fake solicitations include this disclosure, so it’s always best to confirm with the appropriate official source, especially before sending any payment. f Beware of mailings from companies with the word “compliance” in their name.
If unsure about the legitimacy of a business filing notice, check call the secretary of the state’s office (860.509.6003) or visit the office’s website.
f What’s driving (and deflecting) business investment in Connecticut
Any business receiving “invoice” or other request for payment for unordered, undelivered or unsolicited services should notify the Department of Consumer Protection (dcp.frauds@ct.gov; 800.842.2649).
f The financial crises in Greece and China and the increasing value of the dollar

inety-mile-an-hour winds tore into Connecticut on a warm day earlier this summer, in minutes taking down trees and power lines, blocking roads, and leaving thousands of homes and businesses in the dark. Maybe you were spared the worst, but if that kind of calamity happens to your business during this fall hurricane season, will you be ready? Experts say this year could still produce some major headaches: perhaps as many as six hurricanes, and two as powerful as Category 3 or higher.
