Vice President of Development and CEO
St. Francis Medical Center Foundation
Dear Friends:
As I reflect over the past year, I am reminded of the opportunities and challenges we faced together. Out of
challenges come opportunities, and our Annual Report showcases our collective strength to work together for the
benefit of our communities.
Our Mission is at the core of everything we do. Each program and activity helps our community by serving the most
vulnerable among us.
On page 3, you will learn about Dr. Mike Stephenâs philosophy of care. As the Medical Director of St. Francisâ
Emergency Department who recently stepped into the role of Chief of Staff, he is charged with ensuring all patients
receive high-quality medical care. His philosophy stems from being a doctor and a parent, allowing him to empathize
with both perspectives when treating patients.
Brother Cesar, whose story appears on page 5, is simply an inspiration. He touches many lives in his work as
a Chaplain, offering comfort and peace to some of the most critically injured patients. Triumphing over personal
adversity, his journey helps others see God actively working in our lives.
Last year also saw the Foundation embrace the Mission of St. Francis. Our Prom Dress Project, which was
administered by our staff, offered a Fairy Godparent experience to young women who may otherwise not have
afforded the expense of such a special occasion like prom. Find that story on page 8.

The Pink Gloves Dance, highlighted on page 7, offered a way to raise awareness of breast cancer while celebrating
the Medical Centerâs new state-of-the-art 3-D Mammogram program. Women now have a more comfortable,
accurate mammogram experience thanks to the generosity of donors like those who supported our first annual
Womenâs Luncheon and Fashion Show.
On behalf of Foundation staff, I thank everyone who made this successful year possible. With your continued support,
we will continue to carry out the Mission of the Daughters of Charity of serving the sick and poor in Southeast Los
Angeles County.
Best regards,
Mary Eileen âDubâ Drees

St. Francis Medical Center
The Vincentian Values are central to everything we do at St. Francis
Medical Center. I am truly privileged to work with the dedicated
associates and physicians who live our Mission each day.
who need us most remains strong. The partnership will create
opportunities for us to benefit from the size and scope of Ascension
Healthâs resources.
Through their actions, we achieve our goals of fostering healthy
children and families. We provide not only high-quality health care,
but also nurture the mind, body, and spirit of the sick poor in the
tradition of the Daughters of Charity co-founders: St. Vincent de
Paul, St. Louise de Marillac, and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. This
commitment is showcased not only in our clinical care program but
also in the outreach to our community. From shoes for children to
tutoring to health care education for community members, we strive
to live the Mission of the Daughters of Charity with every program
we offer.
I look forward to a bright future and a continued commitment to
mission-focused health care ministries. I offer my thanks to our
donors for supporting these ministries and to our associates and
doctors for embodying them through their work. These partnerships
allow us to serve the needs of the most vulnerable.
In late 2012, the Daughters of Charity Health System signed an
affiliation agreement with Ascension Health Alliance. St. Francis
Medical Center joins 22 other health care sites including six hospitals
along the California coast. Our commitment to serving those

Spotlight on
Dr. Mike Stephen
When he was five years old, Mike Stephen told his mom he wanted to be a doctor. He could
not point to any particular situation that prompted him to make his declaration except that he
felt a call of service to help those needing care. âI found that I always wanted to be able to
give someone an answer when they came to me with a health problem,â he says.
âIt is our responsibility
to provide quality care
while easing their fear.â
3
Dr. Stephen is a full-time emergency medicine physician and is now serving as the Chief of
Staff at St. Francis Medical Center. He chose emergency medicine because it allows him to
help people at a critical time and give them an answer to their health concerns.
The Profession is Personal
Dedicated to improving patient care, Dr. Stephen understands the role a physician plays in
patient care. The father of three girls has firsthand experience as a frightened parent; one of
his own daughters has had multiple surgeries allowing him to view the medical experience
from the perspective of a frightened parent. âAs a parent you want your childâs physician to
be competent and caring,â he says. âI will never look at a concerned parent the same way
again. I understand their fear and desire in knowing their child is going to be alright. As
physicians, it is our responsibility to provide quality care while easing their fear.â
A Call to Service
Since joining the medical staff in 1994, Dr. Stephen has demonstrated a continued desire
to serve, echoing the values of the Daughters of Charity. Gerald T. Kozai, President and
CEO of the St. Francis Medical Center, points out, âDr. Stephen could work anywhere.
He is that talented and compassionate. We are honored heâs chosen to answer his calling
at St. Francis.â
This commitment is one that Dr. Stephen takes seriously. During his morning commute,
he has a routine that helps him prepare for the day. âI pray for wisdom in making the
right decisions, skill so all procedures go well, and compassion to remember the needs
of patients and staff.â
He describes himself as both âidealistic and realisticâ in his philosophy of care that is
influenced by his experiences at St Francis Medical Center. âEvery day, I am surrounded
by physicians, nurses, and staff who are trying to provide care in an under-resourced
environment. I am amazed and grateful to work with people who inspire me as they serve
and care for our patients.â
5. âWe have an
incredible team
in the Emergency
Department âŚ
they are
true heroes.â
Emergency Medicine
Giving Back
This past year, St. Francis Medical Center had over 73,000 emergency visits, making it
one of the busiest emergency and trauma centers in the Greater Los Angeles area. Prior
to being elected Chief of Staff in 2013, Dr. Stephen served as the Medical Director of the
Emergency Department. âWe have an incredible team in the Emergency Department who
care for everyone, from critically-ill patients to those with a simple cold, in a professional,
compassionate manner. They are true heroes.â
Dr. Stephen believes it is important to give back. Dr. Stephen donates his time, talent and
treasure by serving on the St. Francis Medical Center Foundationâs Board of Trustees and
making annual giving part of his gift back to St. Francis Medical Center. In doing so, Dr.
Stephen supports the Mission and Vision of St. Francis Medical Center on a personal level.
During his tenure with St. Francis, Dr. Stephen has seen the Emergency Department evolve
to meet increasing community needs. In 1996, St. Francis received Level II Trauma Center
designation by the American College of Surgeons after meeting essential criteria and rigorous
standards for trauma care and capabilities. Dr. Stephen points out, âWe have an excellent
team of trauma surgeons, anesthesiologists, trauma nurses, ER physicians and emergency
medical technicians who provide immediate care for patients in need.â
In 2004, St. Francis implemented an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system in the
Emergency Department in order to improve quality of care. At the time, only 30 percent
of emergency departments in the United States had EMR systems. âIt was remarkable
seeing state-of-the-art technology in our department, and it was the right thing to do for our
patients,â Dr. Stephen observes.
Professionally, Dr. Stephen also shares the Vincentian Spirit with prospective physicians he
interviews for employment in his role as Medical Director of the Emergency Department. âI
see the Mission carried out every single day,â he says. âThe Daughters of Charity foster a spirit
of service.â
In recognition for his leadership, Dr. Stephen was awarded the Vincentian Spirit Award
in 2007 by the medical staff of St. Francis Medical Center. St. Francis Medical Center
Foundation salutes Dr. Stephen for his dedication to patients and honors him for both
his leadership and dedication as he exemplifies Vincentian Values each day of Respect,
Compassionate Service, Simplicity, Advocacy to the Poor and Inventiveness to Infinity.

G a l a n
Cesar Galanâs life changed dramatically on April 3, 2001. That evening, he was shot two times, suffering a spinal cord
injury. His brother, Hector, was critically injured in the same shooting. Hector and Cesar were both transported to St.
Francis Medical Center. When Cesar awoke the next day, he learned Hector was on life support and not expected to
live. âWhen I saw the Chaplain, I knew it was bad,â Cesar says quietly.
Saying Good Bye
âI was being
healed, just
not the way
I asked. God
was healing
my spirit.â
5
Cesar had a special request: could he say good bye? It was a difficult task but St. Francisâ
Chaplain, Brother Richard, made it happen. Cesarâs hospital bed, with all its equipment, was
moved into his brotherâs room. âI got to see my brother one last time,â he says. As Cesar
held his brotherâs hand, he quietly said good bye.
Many people would be overwhelmed by a life-changing injury and the death of a brother,
but Cesar held a different thought in his heart. âIt was the best giftâto say good bye,â he
says. With quiet strength, Cesar looked at many of his challenges as gifts. The day he left the
hospital and was transferred to a rehabilitation facility, he met someone else who changed
his life. âThere was a man named Chance who was being discharged the day I came in,â
says Cesar. Chance, who had an injury similar to Cesarâs, stopped by before leaving. His
message? âHe told me it would be OK,â says Cesar, who had a tough time believing that.
However, looking back, he marks that event as the beginning of his journey of healing.
Healing
Throughout his therapy, Brother Richard continued to visit Cesar to check on his progress. A
bond was formed, and Cesar began to pray for healing. He began to pray regularly, feeling
closer to God each day. Soon he was working full-time in the Chaplain Department, offering
comfort where needed. Then one day, he had an epiphany. âI was being healed, just not
the way I asked. God was healing my spirit.â
Cesar began volunteering at St. Francis, at first visiting spinal cord injury patients and finding
himself drawn to young people with serious injuries. Seeing Cesarâs empathy with patients,
Brother Richard offered him a part-time position as a Post Traumatic Stress Chaplain, a
specialized and much-needed role made possible through a grant from the Daughters of
Charity Foundation. Cesar doubted his ability to carry out such an important responsibility
and prayed for guidance. Sometimes it was hard to hear the pain and suffering patients
were experiencing. âI wasnât sure I could do this,â says Cesar
The Journey
Cesar found he had a special gift for talking to young people who experienced difficult lives
on the streets. âI hope that kids feel they can talk to me without judgment,â he explains.
âWhen I was younger, I was just like them.â
In 2010, he took another step on his life journey, becoming a Brother in the Friars of the Sick
Poor. His mentor, Brother Richard, supported him every step along the way. âI had been
thinking about it for five or six years,â says Cesarânow Brother Cesar. He attended a Mass
where they prayed for vocations and felt the message was aimed directly at him. âI fought it
for a while,â he says. âThen I gave in and told Brother Richard I wanted to become a Brother.â
7. âItâs still difficult some days,â he says
about both his life and his ministry.
âBut I pray deeper. And I am thankful.â
He is a regular on the Medical Centerâs 8th Floor, often visiting young patients who have been shot or assaulted and who
need a second chance, or sometimes, a first chance. âMany of them are looking for a way off the streets.â
Brother Cesar remembers a manâa boy reallyâwho had been shot and whose story haunts him. âThe young man was
paralyzed and had a lot of complications,â Brother Cesar says. âI talked to him every day. Shortly before he died, he told
me that he was shot over nothing.â Today, part of Brother Cesarâs personal mission is to counsel young people who want to
leave gang life.
Giving Back
Being continuously
resourceful and creative
Today, Brother Cesar ministers full-time at St. Francis, telling his story when he feels it may help and silently holding a hand
where needed. A quiet, unassuming man, he believes his life is a gift and he wants to give back. He is a favorite with
patients, associates and co-workers because of his humble spirituality and comforting presence.
Brother Cesar is making plans for the future, hoping to become a priest, ministering more fully to those he sees each day
and offering the Sacraments. The father of two sons, he is joyful to have seen them grow up. âI prayed to see them be
successful,â he says. When his youngest leaves for college, Brother Cesar will enroll in the seminary so he can live more
wholly in service of his faith.
Brother Cesar is grateful for his second chance and renewed heart, and he is grateful to St. Francis Medical Center for
providing a pathway for his journey to healing and service to God. âItâs still difficult some days,â he says about both his life
and his ministry. âBut I pray deeper. And I am thankful.â

Mammography
Pink Glove
Dance Project
The Pink Glove Dance Project helped unveil St. Francisâ new 3D Mammography machine, offering one
of the most accurate breast cancer screening tools. The new technology in the Womenâs Imaging Center
combines 3D imaging with breast tomosythesis, resulting in increased comfort, shorter scan times and
greater precision. This new addition reduces the need for additional testing, while improving patient care.
7
The Pink Glove Dance Project is part of a national effort to raise
awareness for breast cancer. In videos produced by hospitals and
community groups across the country, people donned pink latex
gloves to bring attention to breast cancer screening and treatment.
And then they danced.
St. Francis was the first medical facility to offer 3D mammogram technology in the Los Angeles area and
one of a handful of organizations nationwide offering this advanced procedure.
The introduction of 3D Mammography
was showcased at the inaugural Womenâs
Luncheon & Fashion Show headlined âThe
Giftâ on May 9, 2012. âThe Giftâ raised
awareness of womenâs wellness issues and
honored women whose lives have been
impacted by breast cancer.
St. Francis associates joined in the fun with the Foundation and
made videos, which can be viewed on YouTube. The videos depict
individuals ranging from environmental services personnel to
nurses to doctors wearing pink gloves, pink hats and even a mock
boxing match complete with pink boxing gloves.
Womenâs

Fashion Show
Thank you to all the special individuals and
organizations that supported this event.
Working together, St. Francis associates,
physicians and community members helped
raise awareness while raising needed funds for
digital mammogram screenings for uninsured
women in Southeast Los Angeles County.

P r ojec t
In spring 2012, nearly 200 young women participated in the Prom Dress
Project. The Prom Dress Project, organized by the St. Francis Medical
Center Foundation, created a boutique where neighborhood girls could
âshopâ at no cost for dresses and accessories for their special night.
The etiquette class focused on teaching participants life skills that would
translate beyond the prom experience into the professional world.
Participants learned proper table technique and how to network and express
themselves in formal settings.
Dub Drees, Vice President of Development and CEO of the St. Francis
Medical Center Foundation, says, âProm is such a special occasion. We
wanted to make sure all young ladies, regardless of financial circumstances,
could have a memorable prom experience.â She firmly believes the event
fostered self-confidence in young women through special programming that
included make-up tutorials and etiquette classes.
A professional make-up artist was available at the event, presenting makeup
tips and tricks so young ladies would have confidence applying their own
makeup in both special event and professional settings.
In addition to the workshops, âFairy Godparentsâ volunteered as personal
shoppers for each young woman. After a dress was chosen, âFairy
Godparentsâ offered advice on shoes, purses and accessories for a polished
look. Over 200 young ladies received free prom packages that included a
dress, shoes, accessories and makeup.
These prom packages were available because of generous donations from
business and community donors. âWe are so grateful for all the support
we received. Our community supported a great event and really made a
difference in young womenâs lives,â Drees says.

Healthy Community Initiatives (HCI) brings health screenings, immunizations, and health
education directly to area schools, churches, businesses and other community-based organizations via
its HCI nurse, educator, staff, and mobile unit. For individuals and families without access to primary
care, HCI provides them with important preventive screenings and health care referrals.
Because the Community Health Needs Assessment revealed the high incidences of diabetes, obesity,
and chronic illness in our service area, screenings for blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, body fat
(BMI), and height and weight provide the first step in identifying health conditions and linking individuals
to essential follow-up care and treatment. Immunizations for diphtheria, pertussis, Haemophilus
influenzae type B, measles, mumps, rubella, polio, and chicken pox help to prevent childhood diseases
and help students meet school enrollment requirements. Vision and audio screenings at private
and public elementary schools help identify health issues early on so students receive corrective
interventions and reduce barriers to learning.
FY 2012 Program Accomplishments
⢠16,497 adults and children were provided with free health screenings, immunizations,
and health education
⢠3,880 students received 9,330 immunizations through HCI/SFMC Clinics
⢠440 people were provided with the flu vaccine; 105 received Tdap vaccine
⢠534 people participated in English and Spanish parenting classes
⢠316 people received childbirth class education
⢠3,006 students received health screenings at Daughters of Charity (DOC) schools
⢠2,646 children and 545 parents were provided with health education at 50 presentations at
DOC elementary schools
⢠704 Vision screenings and 547 Audio screenings completed at DOC schools
⢠297 students/16 parents participated in 12 education sessions at DOC schools
⢠934 students received 1,369 immunizations at Lynwood, Downey, and Montebello Unified schools
⢠784 students and 938 adults attended 69 health education sessions offered at Lynwood and
South Gate schools and community locations
