| Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Part III, Line 4 | Community Benefit Programs Such community-focused programs improve access to healthcare, advocate for the poor and vulnerable, promote health through free education and screenings and help to build better communities by improving quality of life. St. Vincent Health Community Benefit Overview From its inception, the St. Vincent vision has been to deliver a continuum of holistic, high-quality health services in Central Indiana through its sponsored health care ministries and improve the lives and health of Indiana individuals and communities, with special attention to the poor and vulnerable. This is accomplished through strong partnerships with businesses, community organizations, local, state and federal government, physicians, St. Vincent associates and others. Most St. Vincent ministries file individual Form 990s. The St. Vincent Health filing encompasses the health system's corporate-level activities as well as activities of Quality Healthcare Solutions, LLC, a healthcare consulting firm specializing in data coding and quality of care reporting. St. Vincent invests in resources, training, tools, and other support to assist St. Vincent-sponsored health care ministries in partnering with their communities to provide community benefit. To educate, encourage and empower associates for community engagement, to deploy resources and expertise to facilitate this work, and to track and report community benefit, St. Vincent Health established a Community Development & Health Improvement team. These professionals work with leadership and associates at each hospital and with key community partners to develop and support initiatives that address identified community needs and to measure, track and report community benefit. An electronic database has been developed to provide accurate reporting and timely analysis throughout all St. Vincent ministries. This investment empowers the sponsored health ministries to work closely with their communities to assess strengths, needs and challenges through a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) conducted every three years, to develop an Implementation Strategy to address priority needs, and to work together with a wide range of community partners to implement and support solutions that will improve quality of life and build and sustain a healthier community. St. Vincent Health also creates accountability and provides systems for tracking and reporting community benefit to each community, to St. Vincent, and its sponsoring organization, Ascension Health. The CHNA, Implementation Strategy, and Community Benefit Report for each hospital are posted on their websites. Community Health Needs Assessment True community benefit responds to the particular needs and challenges of a specific community, building on its unique strengths and assets. Each hospital, working with St. Vincent Health Community Development & Health Improvement specialists, leads a community health needs assessment (CHNA) every 3 years. Using a variety of tools, including surveys, key person interviews, focus groups, secondary data and data analysis professionals, the hospital team identifies community needs and concerns. These are shared with the community at large and a consensus is reached about priorities and available resources. To provide ongoing community input and a basis for collaboration within the community to address health needs, St. Vincent leads or participates in a community round table or forum. This group brings together organizations and individuals from throughout the community who share a common interest in improving the community's health status and quality of life and provides expertise in a variety of community dimensions, including public health. Implementation Strategy On completion of each CHNA, the Community Development & Health Improvement team works with each hospital to identify those priority needs which they plan to address and to develop an Implementation Strategy to document their goals and strategies for addressing these needs. Supporting Community Benefit Solutions As St. Vincent ministries come together with their communities to address challenges and implement solutions, St. Vincent community benefit staff support these efforts in a variety of ways, from sharing best practices, to identifying potential partners, to suggesting additional sources of funding to leverage St. Vincent's commitment, to connecting with other resources available within the health system or community. Support is provided for an array of community benefit programs which include: - In-patient and outpatient care available to all, without regard for ability to pay - Full participation in public programs, such as Medicaid - Health education and promotion for members of the public - Medical education - An array of community-building activities which indirectly impact health, including housing, transportation, arts and culture, economic development, and job readiness. Community Benefit Training, Tracking and Reporting St. Vincent's commitment to community benefit includes ongoing associate education and advocating for full integration of community benefit into each department within the organization. Community liaisons conduct field training on a regular basis at each sponsored health ministry. In addition, St. Vincent hosts periodic community benefit conferences to celebrate this important work and provide education on significant issues. St. Vincent commits to reporting community benefit fully and accurately to state and federal governments, to its sponsor, Ascension Health, and to each of the communities it serves. Thus, educating associates on how to appropriately report and account for community benefit is imperative. St. Vincent has devised an on-line database that allows departments to enter, quantify and qualify community benefit on an ongoing basis. This database is monitored by St. Vincent and reports are reviewed quarterly and annually. The program also facilitates custom analysis which allows St. Vincent, as well as individual ministries, to analyze the types, amounts and timing of their community benefit and make comparisons. An annual community benefit report is prepared and distributed by St. Vincent to its individual ministries, which in turn, are distributed to communities. Annually, the report is published electronically and made available on-line as well as in hard-copy format. St. Vincent developed tool kits to help leadership disseminate the information within their healthcare ministries and communities. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Part III, Line 4 continued | Check-Up 13 Check-up 13, a partnership between St. Vincent Health and WTHR Channel 13, provides news stories on the 13th of every month that focus on a specific health topic or issue. In conjunction with many of these news "check-ups", St. Vincent offers specific screenings or events that provide further education or health care. Viewers who have health-related concerns or questions can call 800-UCHECK13 to be connected to a St. Vincent Health ministry that can assist in providing answers and appropriate follow-up. Each month's health topics are chosen based on area needs, health-focused observances, and availability of related screenings and education to support the monthly report. This partnership is enabling both organizations to increase awareness of health issues, assist Hoosiers in taking a proactive approach to their health, and improve access to comprehensive health resources. Community Benefit Sponsorship St. Vincent supports efforts to improve the health of our communities by partnering with local organizations and providing financial support through sponsorship. Because many factors affect health, St.Vincent supports a wide-range of topics. For example, to increase access to health services, St. Vincent sponsors free screenings through the Indy Dental Association and provides financial support to local free health clinics . St. Vincent provides financial sponsorship to organizations focused on youth, including the Diabetes Youth Foundation to provide a summer camp for children from low-income families, Indiana Youth Institute to support the Kids Count Conference, and the Make a Wish Foundation. Additionally, St. Vincent sponsors events specifically addressing the health needs of minority populations, including Black Expo and the Indiana Latino Institute. Community Benefit Cash and In-Kind Contributions In addition to the outreach programs directly operated by St. Vincent Health, the corporate office and physician network makes cash and in-kind donations to a variety of community organizations focused on improving health status in the community. These take the form of cash donations to outside organizations, the donation of employee time and services to outside organizations and the representation of the hospital on community boards and committees working to improve health status and quality of life within the community. Community Building Activities St. Vincent STAR Job Readiness Program Job readiness is the foundation of economic stability and empowerment. To meet this need, St. Vincent Health, one of the state's largest employers, created the Special Talents to Achieve and Rise (STAR) Program. Established in 2002, the STAR Program aims to enrich lives and provide job readiness skills to individuals in Marion and surrounding counties who are facing significant barriers to employment, but have a sincere desire to gain and maintain a job. Developed to provide both job readiness and life skills, the STAR Program reaches out to both disadvantaged individuals and those who find themselves in situational stress due to a recent job loss, or an inability to find employment. For many individuals, the program has not only resulted in a job, but has been life-transforming. The STAR Program has helped individuals with a minimal level of education and those with graduate degrees. It has helped those who have never had a job and those who have secured employment but were unable to keep it. It has also helped those who have worked for thirty years in a particular job but find themselves now searching without the knowledge necessary to be competitive in the workplace. In addition to work history diversity, the STAR Program also enjoys diversity in ethnicity and socioeconomic levels. Participants are referred to the STAR Program directly through St. Vincent Human Resources, the court system, public assistance workers, shelters, churches, friends, and family. Applicants are screened by STAR Team Members to determine the individual's commitment to the program. Participants meet four days a week, four hours a day for six weeks in a classroom setting, where they gain and/or enhance job readiness and life skills. They learn the importance of positive attitude, punctuality, interviewing techniques, resume building, professionalism, and dressing for success. In addition, St. Vincent works with partners from throughout the community to provide training on how to budget, open a checking account, secure reliable transportation, and provides an outside perspective on what employers are seeking. Following classroom training, students are placed with mentors who are associates in various departments throughout the St. Vincent system. Five sessions of STAR classes were offered in fiscal year 2015. More than 300 STARS have gone on to sustain full-time employment since the program's inception. St. Vincent Danny's Closet of Hope Studies have shown that a professional appearance has a strong influence in hiring and promotion decisions. Thus it is imperative that those seeking employment, especially those who are overcoming additional employment barriers, have access to appropriate clothing resources. The St.Vincent STAR Job Readiness Program has long worked closely with the local Dress for Success agency to assist women enrolled in the STAR program in obtaining suitable interview and work clothing. Until recently, however, there was no such assistance available for men. Responding to this need among men participating in the STAR program, and recognizing that other local agencies were in need of such a resource, Danny's Closet of Hope was born. Danny's Closet assists men in obtaining adequate clothing for interviewing and employment, and seeks to build confidence and hope for their clients. In addition to serving STAR participants, 55 other organizations in Indianapolis refer their male clients to Danny's Closet by appointment. At these appointments, men are fitted for a new or gently used suit, dress shirt, tie, belt, and dress shoes, and are given new socks, undergarments and a business portfolio. St. Vincent Danny's Closet of Hope is fortunate to have many individual and organizational partners who have cleaned out their closets or held clothing drives, donating gently used professional men's clothing. Danny's Closet has a wonderful partnership with Fabric Care Center in Indianapolis who donates all dry-cleaning services. Through Danny's Closet of Hope, hundreds of Indiana men hoping to gain and maintain employment are experiencing the difference that professional clothing can make in hope, in confidence and in how an employer responds. Danny's Closet has suited over 4,800 men since the ministry's inception in 2007. Understanding Poverty The St. Vincent Health Poverty Experience is a half-day simulation designed to help participants understand what it would be like to be a part of a typical poor and vulnerable family trying to survive from week-to-week. The simulation sensitizes participants to the realities of life faced by those unable to provide adequate resources for their families. During the experience, 40-60 participants assume the roles of up to 26 different families living in poverty, with a goal of seeking out and managing available resources to ensure basic services for each family member. St. Vincent conducts the poverty experience for a wide-variety of community and government organizations, including schools, city, county and state entities and non-profits. Community Building Cash and In-kind Contributions St. Vincent Health makes cash and in-kind donations to a variety of community organizations focused on building the community. These take the form of cash donations to outside organizations, the donation of employee time and services to outside organizations and the representation of the organization on community boards and committees working to improve infrastructure for the community. |
