He had a scare last year, and now at age 72—after a cardiac procedure, significant health education, and a new exercise regimen—he appreciates each day more than ever. It began unexpectedly at a Christmas dinner last year in Pennsylvania. One minute he began feeling hot and sweaty during a conversation, and the next thing he can remember, he was flat on the floor, face-to-face with a paramedic above him. He wasn’t sure how long he had been lying there, but people around him were concerned. He was checked out at a local hospital and he then returned to his home in Millsboro. He followed up with his Lewes cardiologist, who sent him to Beebe Medical Center for a diagnostic cardiac catheterization—a test where the doctor uses a tiny catheter to see if there are any blockages inside the Dominic Zuppo, of Long Neck, had a cardiac catheterization and interventional procedure at Beebe. Since then, he exercises regularly by walking and riding his bicycle through the neighborhood where he lives. 2 arteries in the heart that could cause a heart attack. Mr. Zuppo’s condition required Beebe interventional cardiologist Mouhanad Freih, MD, to have him taken to Beebe’s Cardiac Catheterization Lab to place two stents in Mr. Zuppo’s coronary arteries to improve the flow of blood to his heart. “I was blessed,” Mr. Zuppo says nine months later. “The doctor fixed me up and now I feel great.” Mr. Zuppo is one of more than 6,000 patients who have had either a diagnostic or therapeutic cardiac catheterization at Beebe Medical Center since the Interventional Cardiology program began nearly five years ago. He is also one of more than 1,500 patients who have had the medical procedure to open one or more clogged coronary arteries. HealthGrades® Ranks Beebe #1 in Delaware for Coronary Interventional Procedures Beebe Medical Center’s Interventional Cardiology program has been recognized by HealthGrades®, the agency that rates hospitals, medical facilities, and physicians around the nation. HealthGrades has named Beebe Medical Center a recipient of the Coronary Intervention Excellence Award™ for 2012. It also has ranked Beebe Medical Center #1 in Delaware for Coronary Interventional Procedures for two years in a row (2011–2012) and among the Top 5% in the nation for Coronary Interventional Procedures for 2012. The ratings are based in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) databank of 40 million hospital records showing patient outcomes. Through analysis, HealthGrades establishes individual quality ratings for nearly 5,000 hospitals based on riskadjusted rates of mortality and in-hospital complications in 27 procedures and diagnoses. Today, Beebe’s board certified, interventional cardiologists treat patients who are scheduled for cardiac procedures. They also are available around the clock to immediately treat patients with a heart attack. These cardiologists are Ehtasham Qureshi, MD, Medical Director of Beebe’s Cardiac Catheterization program; Mouhanad Freih, MD; and G. Robert Myers, MD. The national average time from entry to an emergency department with a heart attack and opening up the clogged artery is recommended to be less than 90 minutes. At Beebe Medical Center the average time is an impressive 58 minutes. Beebe Medical Center’s Interventional Cardiology program is supported through a comprehensive collaboration between the Emergency Department, dedicated Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory nurses and staff and physicians, the Intensive Care Unit, and dedicated cardiac units. Beebe has dedicated cardiac intensive care and step down units to care for patients before and after a cardiac cath. There also are dedicated cardiothoracic (CT) surgeons on staff and a fully accredited CT surgery program. Beebe’s Cardiac Cath Lab i. Diagnostic Caths ii.

The Lewes youngsters were taking part in Beebe Medical Foundation’s 2nd annual Treat the Beat 5K walk. In all, more than 200 people supported the event and gave a total of more than $20,000 in pledges and gifts to be used for cardiac and vascular services at Beebe Medical Center. Last year the money raised was used to purchase a NuStep Stepper for Beebe’s Cardiac Rehab Department, to improve follow-up care for congestive heart failure patients, and to expand education about heart disease in local schools. At just two weeks old, Jayson had to have his first open-heart surgery to repair a defect of his aorta. And again, at five months, he had another surgery to repair the aorta. “He has only begun to understand how serious it is,” his mother, Betsy Kirschner, says. “But he’s a trooper.” Betsy Kirschner says that although Jayson is a patient at the Wilmington-based Nemours/Alfred I. DuPont Children’s Hospital, he’s been treated twice in Beebe Medical Center’s Emergency Department. “They’ve been wonderful. They stay in contact with Nemours and do exactly what should be done,” she says. “There is wonderful collaboration between the two hospitals.” Jayson Kirschner is seen here with his gym teacher, Tim Bamforth of Seaside Striders. 4 Millsboro resident Pat Hopkins walks Tito, her 230-pound Italian mastiff, at Roosevelt Inlet, following her cardiac catheterization and stent placement in a coronary artery accessed through her wrist. Beebe Offers Advanced Interventional Procedure Millsboro resident Pat Hopkins learned that when she needed a cardiac catheterization to open a clogged coronary artery, she could have an alternative procedure at Beebe Medical Center called a radial artery (wrist) access cardiac catheterization. This means that for selected patients having a coronary invasive procedure, the cardiologist inserts the catheter into the radial artery in the wrist rather than in the femoral artery in the groin, and then threads it from there into an artery in the heart. She was the first patient at Beebe to have a stent placed into a cardiac artery using this method. “We are proud to introduce this method to our patients,” Dr. Qureshi says. “Though it is not new, it is generally performed in large, teaching medical institutions. Improvement in medical technologies has allowed us to bring this method to our community.” Dr. Qureshi performed the radial artery access cardiac cath on Mrs. Hopkins in May of 2011, and she soon returned to her job and to walking her dog. She says that she was happy she had the opportunity to have the alternative method because she had pulled a muscle in her groin following knee surgery and she thought that the femoral artery access method would have been too difficult for her. “I had read about the procedure, and I was so happy to learn that Beebe offered it and that I was able to have it.” n Ehtasham Qureshi, MD G. Robert Myers, MD Mouhanad Freih, MD Beebe interventional cardiologists What you should know about Heart Disease Heart disease is the number-one killer in the U.S. It is also a major cause of disability. There are many different forms of heart disease. The most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart itself. This is called coronary artery disease and happens slowly over time. It is the major reason people have heart attacks. Other kinds of heart problems may occur within the valves in the heart, or the heart may not pump well and cause heart failure. Some people are born with heart disease. Prevention You can help reduce your risk of heart disease by taking steps to control factors that put you at greater risk: • Control your blood pressure • Lower your cholesterol • Don’t smoke • Get enough exercise • Get regular medical check-ups Signs • Pain or discomfort in the center of the chest—the most common sign in both men and women • Pain or discomfort in other areas of the upper body, including the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach • Other symptoms, such as a shortness of breath, breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea, or light-headedness Women are somewhat more likely than men to experience signs other than discomfort in the chest, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, and back or jaw pain. Call 9-1-1 immediately if you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms. Remember, minutes matter!

Beebe Auxiliary Celebrates 75 Years Looking to the future The early 1930s was an exciting time for Beebe Medical Center. Despite the Great Depression that had paralyzed the nation, historical records show that money was flowing into Lewes to fund the growth of the tiny, three-room hospital that had been established in 1916 by Lewes physician brothers Drs. Richard and James Beebe. In 1927, Wilmington residents Benjamin F. and Helen M. Shaw funded the construction of the now familiar white building—and donated more funds that eventually led to a hospital of 60 beds. Wilmington resident Mary Thompson, also interested in having a hospital in the popular resort area of Rehoboth Beach, in 1934 raised $100,000 to expand the hospital, paying for what is now known as the Thompson Wing. In 1936, with a backdrop of a burgeoning hospital and a nursing school constantly in need of new supplies, a group of women got together in Lewes in the home of Mrs. Edwin Marshall to form a new organization. Born that day was the Junior Auxiliary of the Beebe Hospital of Sussex County Inc., the predecessor of the Beebe Medical Auxiliary. The organization’s purpose was “to promote the Jeffrey M. Fried, FACHE, President and CEO of Beebe Medical Center, unveils a rendering of the new Interfaith Chapel funded in total by $305,000 raised by the Beebe Auxiliary. 8 “We are a growing organization of people who recognize the importance of having a quality healthcare facility in our community.” —Auxiliary President Michael Clemmer welfare of the hospital, provide recreational facilities for student nurses, direct the baby guild, and to take care of the necessary equipment.” In 1938, the Auxiliary held a ball to raise money to buy furniture for the Thompson Wing. In those days, the women met for tea in private homes where they wore their favorite hats and gloves. They sewed curtains for hospital windows and collected blankets, hot-water bag covers, and baby supplies. Today, that organization is 253-men-and-women strong and is the oldest fundraising organization for Beebe Medical Center. The Auxiliary volunteers run the gift shop at the hospital, the Beebe Treasure Chest Thrift Shop in the Midway Shopping Center, and multiple fundraisers throughout the year. In 2010, the organization made a leadership gift of $300,000 to Beebe Medical Foundation’s Nursing Education Campaign, the Auxiliary’s largest single gift up to that time. This year it gave $305,000 to the establishment of a new and larger chapel, where visitors, families, patients, and team members can find a place of solace. Over the years, the Auxiliary has raised more than $3 million for Beebe Medical Center and its programs. On October 23, 2011, at its official 75th Anniversary luncheon, Auxiliary members were honored with tributes: a Declaration from the City of Lewes from Mayor Jim Ford; a Proclamation from Delaware State Senators Joe Booth and Gary F. Simpson; and a tribute from the Beebe Medical Foundation, the fundraising arm of Beebe Medical Center. Auxiliary President Michael Clemmer proudly read a tribute sent by Delaware Governor Jack Markell. “We are a growing organization of people who recognize the importance of having a quality healthcare facility in our community,” Clemmer says. “In this time when so many auxiliaries have gone by the wayside, ours remains strong, a tribute to our volunteers who work so hard and to the cohesiveness of our community.” Besides fundraising, many of the Auxiliary members also volunteer at the information desks in the hospital, as well as in the Emergency Department, offering comfort to the friends and family members of patients who are being treated. Several celebratory events have taken place this year as members have come together. At the annual membership luncheon, 15 women were honored for being members for 30 or more years. They were: Jean Cochran (1954), Elaine Dewey-Shupe (1975), Nancy Horneck (1980), Sally Jones (1981), Marie Knox (1974), Doreen Lyons (1977), Ruth Macintire (1956), Alice Masterson (1972), Anna B. Moore (1974), Betty Moore (1960), Dorothy Pedicone (1980), Thelma Rowland (1976), Doris (Ginger) Snowden (1974), Gertrude Tharp (1955), and Jackie Travis (1954). “The men and women in the Beebe Medical Auxiliary have truly made a difference to Beebe Medical Center,” says Jeffrey M. Fried, FACHE, President and CEO of Beebe Medical Center. “They have remained loyal to the medical center. They have been there when we have needed them, and they have come up with creative ways to raise money.” To join the Auxiliary, or to learn more, call (302) 645-3538.

The Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing dedication was an exciting day. Pictured, left to right, are Connie Bushey, School Director, Jeffrey M. Fried, President and CEO of Beebe Medical Center, and Randall and Peggy Rollins. Above: Randall and Peggy Rollins with their children and grandchildren. 10 Giving This year, Beebe Medical Foundation received a $3 million donation from the Ma-Ran Foundation for the Nursing Education Campaign. The gift was the largest single donation in the history of Beebe Medical Center. The donation means that construction on the Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing could begin next spring, and it gives real hope that the remaining $2 million needed to complete the project will be raised and that the expanded, modernized school will come to fruition. Randall and Margaret Rollins, whose foundation made the gift, care deeply about Lewes and Beebe Medical Center. They are also members of a family that has supported the medical center for generations. As you read through the following pages of donors, you will see so many families who have given over generations, sometimes in memory of their loved ones, sometimes in honor of a friend—all to help improve the local medical services for everyone. Beebe’s Rollins Wing was named after the late John Rollins, pictured here with his wife Michele Rollins. The Tunnell legacy began in the early 1980s when Robert W. Tunnell joined the Beebe Medical Center Board. He and his wife Eolyne gave $1 million to establish a cancer center at the hospital. Randall and Margaret, known as “Peggy” to her Lewes childhood friends, have been donating to the hospital for years, quietly and unassumingly. Randall’s uncle John Rollins also supported the medical center through monetary donations. He gave $1 million in 1985 that supported the construction of what is known as the Rollins Wing. John and his wife Michele Rollins continued to support the medical center with monetary donations and as volunteers. Even after John died, Michele stayed involved. The Tunnell family is in its third generation of supporting Beebe Medical Center through giving, as well as through hands-on volunteer efforts. The Tunnell legacy began in the early 1980s when Robert W. Tunnell joined the Beebe Medical Center Board. He and his wife Eolyne gave $1 million to establish a cancer center at the hospital. More than a decade later, when the demand for cancer treatment outgrew the walls of the hospital, Robert’s son Robert Tunnell Jr. (Rob) gave $1.5 million to establish the new center at the Beebe Health Campus in Rehoboth Beach. In 2006, Rob’s son Robert Tunnell III and his wife Mindi Tunnell stepped into the role of philanthropy, both in fundraising and in volunteer efforts. They became members of the Board of Ambassadors, and Mindi served as Chairperson of the Beebe Art Auction. Beebe Medical Center is fortunate to enjoy the support of so many in our community. We began 95 years ago as the dream of two local brothers and physicians, Richard and James Beebe. Now, as a community-owned hospital, we have carried forward this tradition of friendship, family, and giving. We are grateful for the generosity that has allowed us to expand and to improve our medical facilities, and we look forward to serving the community for generations to come. Robert and Eolyne Tunnell began the Tunnell legacy with the funding of the original cancer center. Two additional generations of Tunnells are involved in philanthropic efforts for Beebe: pictured, left to right, Robert Tunnell III and his wife Mindi; and Tanya Thomas and Robert Tunnell Jr. Alex A. Sydnor President & CEO, Beebe Medical Foundation, Vice President, External Affairs, Beebe Medical Center Robert’s son Robert Tunnell Jr. (Rob) gave $1.5 million to establish the new center at the Beebe Health Campus in Rehoboth Beach.

They became members of the Board of Ambassadors, and Mindi served as Chairperson of the Beebe Art Auction. 11 Beebe Honor Roll of Donors (7/1/2010–6/30/2011) Beebe Medical Foundation was established in 1989 with the sole mission to raise philanthropic support for Beebe Medical Center. Through the efforts of the Foundation more than $35 million has been raised to support new construction and renovation of medical facilities, new and ongoing medical programs, and to establish an endowment fund to ensure Beebe will always be available for this community. As an independent not-for-profit organization Beebe Medical Center relies on the generosity of the many individuals, businesses, and foundations that are listed in this Honor Roll of Donors. Beebe Medical Foundation is located in the former home of Dr. Richard Beebe, who co-founded Beebe Medical Center in 1916 with his brother Dr. James Beebe. The house originally stood down the street on the site of what is today the clinical building of the hospital. Paul H. Mylander, Chairman, Beebe Medical Foundation William Swain Lee, Chairman, Beebe Medical Center Nursing Education Campaign Major Gifts and Grants The proceeds from the Nursing Education Campaign will enable Beebe Medical Center to expand the Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing. To date, $6 million has been raised, and $2 million more is needed to complete the expansion. Major Gifts and Grants are received from foundations, corporations, and individuals who support Beebe’s core values and mission of providing quality healthcare to our community. This funding provides support for capital expenditures and new programs and services. Nurses provide frontline care and comfort at difficult times in patients’ lives. But there is a critical shortage of nurses in Delaware and across the country. The new Nursing Education Campaign will make it possible to double the capacity of the current nursing class, enabling us to graduate more nurses.

Lights are placed on a tree located on the front lawn of Beebe Medical Center for each family member or friend honored or remembered. The 2010 Holiday of Lights proceeds benefited Beebe Medical Center’s Child Obesity Prevention program. Beebe operates Wellness Centers in three area high schools where dietitians work with students to educate them on healthy food choices. Funding from the Holiday of Lights will allow this program to expand to students in the 3rd grade. (Research has demonstrated that children begin to make more food choices in that grade, so it is the ideal time to begin food education.) Brenda C. Abell In memory of Nancy L.

The Jean & Joan Fund is named after Joan Martin, who passed away from colorectal cancer in 1998, and Jean James, who passed away from brain cancer a year later. The founders wished to honor their memory by providing support for cancer patients. Since 1999, the annual golf tournament has helped fund transport vehicles, create a Reflection Center and a decorative wall for the Meditation Garden, purchase a platelet-testing device, and help support the Patient Special Needs Fund and the Wellness Coaching Program. The Jean & Joan Fund Golf Tournament has contributed over $300,000 to the Tunnell Cancer Center since its inception. Directors Committee Members Luanne Zabytko Chairman James J.
