A new year<br />
brings a new<br />
direction<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
The holidays are upon us, and while this<br />
is usually a time to reflect on <strong>the</strong> year past,<br />
I am eager to look to <strong>the</strong> year ahead.<br />
I have enjoyed serving on <strong>the</strong> Foothill<br />
Development Council since 2003 and will be completing my two-year<br />
term as chairman in early January. I am pleased that my successor is<br />
Barbara Latasa, a valuable member of <strong>the</strong> Development Council since<br />
January 2006 and a longtime resident and business owner in Glendora.<br />
Leadership of <strong>the</strong> Foothill <strong>Foundation</strong> itself is also changing hands. As<br />
you know, Mike Foxworth, executive director of The Foothill <strong>Foundation</strong><br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> last five years, is now on long-term medical leave to address his<br />
ongoing battle with cancer. (He reports that his doctors are giving him<br />
encouraging news and good test scores as he focuses on returning to good<br />
health.) In Mike’s absence, <strong>the</strong> team that is running <strong>the</strong> office includes<br />
Sherry Heinrich and JoAnne Wilson under <strong>the</strong> guidance of Irene Bourdon,<br />
CVHP senior vice president of Strategic and Corporate Development.<br />
They are being assisted by Brian Gauthier, Senior Partner from The<br />
Littlejohn Group, a consulting firm that specializes in best practices in<br />
<strong>community</strong> hospital philanthropy.<br />
The Foothill <strong>Foundation</strong> is also working on implementing new<br />
strategies based upon a series of recommendations from The Littlejohn<br />
Group. One that has been heartily endorsed by <strong>the</strong> members of <strong>the</strong><br />
Foothill Development Council and <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> was<br />
<strong>the</strong> need to be more collaborative with each o<strong>the</strong>r and to capitalize on<br />
ways that will enhance <strong>the</strong> philanthropic ef<strong>for</strong>ts of both. The groups met<br />
in September and are now developing a strategic plan, integrated with <strong>the</strong><br />
needs of CVHP. Our plan will be operational as we start <strong>the</strong> New Year.<br />
With great hopes <strong>for</strong> an improved economy and good health to you<br />
and yours, please enjoy <strong>the</strong> holidays and help us make 2010 a wonderful<br />
year <strong>for</strong> The Foothill <strong>Foundation</strong>.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
WES PURKISS<br />

Commitment to our<br />
<strong>community</strong> remains strong<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
As we end 2009, I would like to take a moment to give thanks and reflect<br />
on a few highlights, as well as an interesting observation.<br />
Let me first speak to <strong>the</strong> obvious, which is that we have all faced a number<br />
of challenges as a result of <strong>the</strong> economy. While we have made some changes<br />
here at Foothill, we continue to be firm in our commitment to provide quality<br />
care to <strong>the</strong> individuals we serve.<br />
It is as a result of our commitment to our <strong>community</strong> that in spite of <strong>the</strong> economy we have continued to<br />
invest in capital equipment throughout <strong>the</strong> hospital to ensure that we provide state-of-<strong>the</strong>-art <strong>community</strong><br />
care. Some of <strong>the</strong>se investments have been made possible through generous donations.<br />
In addition, we continue to examine opportunities to enhance services that have resulted and will continue<br />
to result in greater efficiencies. One example of this is <strong>the</strong> fact that we now have much shorter wait times in<br />
<strong>the</strong> Emergency Department, which has definitely aided us during this busy flu season.<br />
Next I feel compelled to share with you something I learned as a result of a recent study. This study<br />
revealed that most of <strong>the</strong> patients who utilize Foothill Presbyterian Hospital, as well as a number of<br />
<strong>community</strong> members, are unfamiliar with <strong>the</strong> <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Partners system of which Foothill has<br />
been a part <strong>for</strong> approximately 13 years. Hence I believe it is important <strong>for</strong> us to continue to educate our<br />
<strong>community</strong> about all of <strong>the</strong> important resources available within <strong>the</strong> <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Partners<br />
organization, which in addition to Foothill is comprised of <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Medical Center – Queen of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Valley</strong> Campus in West Covina and <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Medical Center – Inter-Community Campus in Covina, as<br />
well as <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Hospice and Home <strong>Health</strong>. Within our system of hospitals we have <strong>the</strong> expertise,<br />
equipment and technology to meet <strong>the</strong> medical needs <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> acutely ill newborn, <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r who requires<br />
heart surgery or <strong>the</strong> family struggling to make end-of-life decisions <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir grandmo<strong>the</strong>r’s care. It is good to<br />
know our patients will always be directed into hands best prepared to heal <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
Finally, as we fast approach <strong>the</strong> holiday season I want to wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season<br />
and look <strong>for</strong>ward <strong>the</strong> New Year.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
DIANA ZENNER, RN, BSN, MBA<br />

Dr. John DiMare Jr.:<br />
One of our first physicians remembers<br />
Foothill’s early days<br />
Dr. DiMare loves to reminisce. In fact, he’s<br />
thought about planning a reunion of physicians<br />
who were among <strong>the</strong> first to serve on <strong>the</strong> staff of<br />
Foothill Presbyterian Hospital (FPH), complete<br />
with wine and cigars!<br />
Appropriately enough, Dr. DiMare’s first<br />
encounter with FPH was at <strong>the</strong> official open house<br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> new hospital, held in March 1973. He was<br />
so impressed with <strong>the</strong> new facility – with its<br />
modern construction, <strong>the</strong> layout and floor plan,<br />
up-to-date equipment and its patient amenities –<br />
that he was pleased that he had applied <strong>for</strong> active<br />
staff privileges at this beautiful hospital.<br />
“I was particularly impressed with how <strong>the</strong><br />
hospital was designed, with <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>esight to leave<br />
room <strong>for</strong> expansion,” notes Dr. DiMare. “Foothill<br />
was a definite step above <strong>the</strong> hospital where I’d<br />
been working.”<br />
Dr. DiMare was also encouraged to join FPH<br />
by several colleagues from his previous hospital,<br />
including Dr. Melvyn Krause, Dr. Robert Allen,<br />
Dr. George Coloviras and Dr. Sidney Siegel.<br />
Dr. DiMare and his colleagues were correct to trust<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir instincts about <strong>the</strong> new hospital. Patient<br />
census grew quickly at <strong>the</strong> facility, as did his<br />
practice. “Within six months, I was as busy as I<br />
wanted to be!” remarks Dr. DiMare.<br />
“I think one of <strong>the</strong> reasons <strong>the</strong> hospital grew so<br />
quickly is that, as a nonprofit facility, it was<br />
supported by both <strong>the</strong> medical <strong>community</strong> and <strong>the</strong><br />
public right from <strong>the</strong> start,” Dr. DiMare continues.<br />
“At <strong>the</strong> time, <strong>the</strong>re was a <strong>for</strong>-profit hospital in<br />
town, yet <strong>the</strong> physicians preferred to support<br />
Foothill due to its nonprofit status.” O<strong>the</strong>r<br />
physicians involved in <strong>the</strong> hospital’s early days,<br />
which focused on primary care, included Drs.<br />
Stanton, Kramer and Van Vranken.<br />
“Don Adams, who was CEO when <strong>the</strong> hospital<br />
opened, was also key to our early success,” notes<br />
Dr. DiMare. “Don was a very dynamic leader who<br />
was particularly skilled at managing both <strong>the</strong><br />
medical staff and <strong>the</strong> hospital’s finances. Some<br />
years later, Don and Dr. Stanton both became ill<br />
and were admitted to <strong>the</strong> hospital <strong>the</strong>y had helped<br />
establish. We were honored to take care of both of<br />
<strong>the</strong>m.”<br />
And just like it had done three decades earlier,<br />
<strong>the</strong> philanthropic support of its physician<br />
<strong>community</strong> continues to help <strong>the</strong> hospital flourish<br />
and grow.<br />
One of <strong>the</strong> first major fund-raising campaigns<br />
to actively involve physicians was <strong>the</strong> renovation of<br />
<strong>the</strong> maternity unit several years ago. Next,<br />
6 <strong>Health</strong>wise<br />
F O O T H I L L P R E S B Y T E R I A N H O S P I TA L
physician leaders played vital roles in <strong>the</strong> campaign<br />
to expand <strong>the</strong> emergency department.<br />
“It’s important that <strong>the</strong> Medical Staff show<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir commitment to <strong>the</strong> hospital. You’ve done all<br />
your work here and all of your patient care here.<br />
It’s important as a physician to donate back to <strong>the</strong><br />
hospital so this medical institution will be here in<br />
<strong>the</strong> future,” says Dr. DiMare.<br />
<strong>Health</strong> care is<br />
a complicated<br />
business<br />
By Robert Curry, President & CEO<br />
<strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Partners<br />
Dr. DiMare retired from his private practice in<br />
2004 and currently serves as <strong>the</strong> Chief Medical<br />
Officer at FPH. And since 2000, Dr. DiMare has<br />
been a member of <strong>the</strong> Board of Directors of <strong>Citrus</strong><br />
<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Partners, which governs FPH, <strong>Citrus</strong><br />
<strong>Valley</strong> Medical Center – Queen of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />
Campus, <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Medical Center<br />
Inter-Community Campus and <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />
Hospice.<br />
Originally a resident of Pasadena, Dr. DiMare<br />
and his wife, Helen, moved to Glendora in 1975.<br />
Their children, Dawn and John III, were raised and<br />
educated in Glendora. Dawn now lives in Foothill<br />
Ranch with her husband, Nicolas, and young<br />
children, Charlotte and William. John III lives in<br />
Long Beach and is in a master’s program in Child<br />
and Family Counseling. In 1994, Dr. DiMare and<br />
Helen moved to Laguna Beach; he commutes to<br />
Glendora by both car and Metrolink train.<br />
“The goal of Foothill Presbyterian Hospital has<br />
always been to maintain <strong>the</strong> highest quality of care<br />
and to be responsive to <strong>the</strong> needs of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>community</strong>,” explains Dr. DiMare. “Thanks to our<br />
very cohesive Medical Staff, our dedicated nursing<br />
staff, and all our o<strong>the</strong>r employees, Foothill has<br />
been able to maintain its quality and its dedication<br />
to <strong>the</strong> <strong>community</strong> over <strong>the</strong> years.”<br />
“What I saw in 1973 is still <strong>the</strong>re,” concludes<br />
Dr. DiMare. “The quality of care, <strong>the</strong> Medical<br />
Staff, and <strong>the</strong> <strong>community</strong> support. While <strong>the</strong><br />
introduction of managed care was definitely a<br />
challenge and a struggle at first, we were able to<br />
persevere – in fact, I believe Foothill made <strong>the</strong><br />
transition more easily than most hospitals. We’ve<br />
definitely had to adjust with <strong>the</strong> times – but have<br />
kept alive our culture of quality care and<br />
<strong>community</strong>.”<br />
Helping individuals<br />
and communities<br />
thrive is not simply a<br />
matter of accessing <strong>the</strong><br />
latest breakthroughs in<br />
medical technology.<br />
Cutting-edge care must<br />
go hand-in-hand with a<br />
sincere commitment to<br />
quality, compassion<br />
and customer service,<br />
key elements in any<br />
prescription <strong>for</strong> health.<br />
It is a rare combination<br />
of ingredients in a<br />
health care facility, and I am proud to say that<br />
Foothill Presbyterian Hospital gets it right, offering<br />
a remarkable array of programs and services<br />
enhanced by its affiliation with <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />
<strong>Health</strong> Partners (CVHP).<br />
Through its three hospital campuses and<br />
hospice, CVHP provides communities throughout<br />
<strong>the</strong> East San Gabriel <strong>Valley</strong> with a comprehensive<br />
continuum of care, from family-centered maternity<br />
services in <strong>the</strong> Carl E. Wynn Newborn Inn at<br />
Foothill to a state-of-<strong>the</strong>-art newborn intensive care<br />
unit at <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Medical Center – Queen of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Valley</strong> Campus to compassionate end-of-life care at<br />
<strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Hospice. At CVHP, we take an<br />
integrated approach, ensuring that our facilities<br />
work toge<strong>the</strong>r to join patients and providers in<br />
strong, collaborative partnerships that keep people<br />
well in body, mind and spirit.<br />
Our philosophy is simple: Whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>y are<br />
turning to CVHP <strong>for</strong> around-<strong>the</strong>-clock emergency<br />

FPH Friendship Card<br />
An important connection…<br />
When you think of <strong>the</strong> word “friend” or<br />
“friendship” what comes to mind? Most likely,<br />
you first think about people in your life who have<br />
made a difference, right? But <strong>the</strong>n, have you<br />
considered <strong>the</strong> ways in which local caregivers may<br />
become your friends, some you’ve never met?<br />
That truth came so close to home during <strong>the</strong> last<br />
three years as Dee Dee and I fight <strong>the</strong> battle to beat<br />
cancer. The professionals and o<strong>the</strong>r support people<br />
at <strong>the</strong> health centers we needed to bring about our<br />
cure are all now “Friends <strong>for</strong> Life!”<br />
Our connections to vital, local health care<br />
providers of medical treatment are a lifeline not just<br />
<strong>for</strong> serious stuff, but also <strong>for</strong> everyday situations.<br />
This was never more apparent than on a recent day<br />
when checking on <strong>the</strong> health status of an FPH<br />
Dee Dee and Mike Foxworth.<br />
friend and his wife in Glendora. I sensed something<br />
was not exactly right so I asked an FPH nurse to<br />
call. It took some persuasion, but <strong>the</strong> friend was<br />
soon transported to <strong>the</strong> hospital <strong>for</strong> treatment that could not wait and may not have happened without <strong>the</strong><br />
timely call from that nurse.<br />
Is this a typical story? Probably not! But it does underscore <strong>the</strong> value of <strong>community</strong> connections that<br />
aren’t going to receive much attention unless <strong>the</strong> story happens to you or a loved one.<br />
And this is one reason this friend and I subscribe to and hold an FPH Friendship Card (<strong>for</strong>merly known<br />
as <strong>the</strong> Gold Card). This is more than just a membership program – it is a real connection to people who may<br />
make an important difference in your time of need.<br />
For more in<strong>for</strong>mation or to have a program brochure sent to you, please call <strong>the</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> office at<br />
(626) 857-3348.<br />
Sincerely yours,<br />
MIKE FOXWORTH<br />
