CEO Perspective – Cheryl Wilson<br />
It has been a joyous holiday season for the seniors and staff of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong>, with<br />
LUV gift bags, an elegant champagne Board Dinner served by staff and Board<br />
members, Resident appreciation checks, and as many parties and events as<br />
could be squeezed in. The calendar was bursting!<br />
In 2011, we served over 800 seniors and 100 children in our programs and<br />
communities! The San Diego Business Journal recently ranked<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s <strong>Senior</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> & Services as the 17th largest non-profit agency in San<br />
Diego County. We are proud to be ranked the largest local non-profit senior<br />
service provider in the County and we will continue to provide quality and<br />
innovative care for years to come.<br />
Despite ongoing Medicare and Medi-Cal budget cuts that directly affect our ability to care for seniors<br />
in the last years of their lives, <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s will be expanding in <strong>2012</strong>. With your help, PACE South Bay is<br />
opening in early summer and will serve hundreds of seniors that need coordinated medical and social<br />
services. However, PACE is just one of the many growing programs at <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s. <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> Villa is almost<br />
at full census because of the increased need for Memory Care services, while the community continues to<br />
benefit from our <strong>Senior</strong> Day Program (which serves seniors with beginning stages of dementia in a joyful<br />
environment). Finally, the childcare program is bursting at the seams and being expanded!<br />
This will be an active year for <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s and the seniors we serve. Thank you for being such a large part of<br />
our success, and we look forward to sharing our future with you all.<br />

Legislative Breakfast Focuses on Homeless <strong>Senior</strong>s<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s hosted its annual Legislative Breakfast for city,<br />
county, state, and national elected officials and their staff<br />
on December 2nd at the <strong>Community</strong> Care Center Café. The<br />
purpose of the breakfast was to honor local legislators and<br />
highlight the pressing social issues concerning senior service<br />
providers.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> CEO, Cheryl Wilson, welcomed the guests and<br />
discussed <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s current advocacy focus, which included<br />
budget cuts for senior services and PACE (Program of Allinclusive<br />
Care for the Elderly) services.<br />
Rep. Bob Filner was honored for his work on homeless<br />
senior Veterans’ issues and graciously accepted a plaque<br />
acknowledging his support of this vulnerable senior population. City of Chula Vista Mayor, Cheryl Cox,<br />
was also honored for her support to bring PACE to the South Bay area.<br />
Jack Christy, Vice-President of Public Policy for Aging Services of California, and Peter Hansel,<br />
Executive Director for CalPACE, were the keynote speakers. They outlined some of the recent budget cuts<br />
to Medi-Cal and Medicare and talked about more cuts in the pipeline for senior services in California,<br />
which may also affect the PACE model of care.<br />
“We, like many other organizations, have been affected by budget cuts,” said Cheryl. “We need to keep an<br />
open dialogue with our elected officials about what makes fiscal sense for our most vulnerable seniors.”<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> Recognizes Special Employees<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s held it's annual Resident Appreciation<br />
events for staff in each of the various communities<br />
and programs in December. These events mark the<br />
time that Residents and Participants can publicly<br />
acknowledge and thank staff for their hard work<br />
throughout the year. During the events this year <strong>St</strong>.<br />
<strong>Paul's</strong> recognized 15 employees who were celebrating<br />
their second anniversaries, eight whom had been here<br />
five years, two who served 10 years, three celebrating<br />
their 15th anniversaries and Tony Abril who marked<br />
his 20th anniversary at <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong>!<br />
With PACE coming to the South Bay later this spring,<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> <strong>Senior</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> & Services will have over 300<br />
employees serving seniors in San Diego County. "Our employees position <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> as an outstanding<br />
senior service provider in the San Diego region", said Cheryl Wilson. "They make the difference for our<br />
seniors."

Priscilla Fleischans - Volunteer Tribute<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s is sad to announce the passing of Priscilla Fleishans on<br />
Thanksgiving Day 2011. Since 1999, Priscilla served as a volunteer driver<br />
for the Residents at <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Manor, taking them to their doctor’s appointments<br />
and the stores for their shopping. Priscilla always had a smile on<br />
her face that lit up the room and an angelic spirit about her that was very<br />
comforting. She was adored by both the Residents and staff. “I appreciate<br />
the relationship Priscilla had with me and my wife Jean,” said Joe Peterson,<br />
a Manor Resident. She was always trying to be available to help and<br />
satisfy the physical needs of the people at the Manor. With no exception,<br />
she was always volunteering for the betterment of the Residents.”<br />
Priscilla constantly gave thanks to be able to share her time with the Residents. <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s is thankful for<br />
such a wonderful lady serving the seniors throughout the years.<br />
“I will definitely miss her,” said <strong>St</strong>ewart Gaddy, Volunteer Coordinator. “Especially during the annual<br />
Volunteer Appreciation Picnic which is held in April. That was her birthday.”

<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> Recognized for Outstanding Assisted Living Services<br />
Every summer the Union Tribune conducts an online poll on the "Best Of" San Diego. Under 'Healthy<br />
Living', <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> Villa was recognized as one of the best Assisted Living Communities in San Diego. “This<br />
recognition is a testament to the wonderful care and attention our staff provides Residents and families<br />
every day,” said Villa Administrator, Justin Weber. For more information, please visit<br />
www.stpaulseniors.org/press-room.<br />
Veterans Day at <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> and in the <strong>Community</strong><br />
Did you know that <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s has 80 staff, Residents, senior Participants, and parents of Child Care<br />
Participants who are veterans? They’ve covered all branches of the military: Army, Navy, Air Force,<br />
Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard, Merchant Marine, Women’s Army Corps, and Women Accepted<br />
for Volunteer Emergency Service (WAVES). Some have had tours of duty in WWII, Korea, Vietnam,<br />
Afghanistan and more.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s celebrated Veterans Day with a ceremony that honored our<br />
veterans. <strong>St</strong>ewart Gaddy, U.S. Navy veteran and <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Volunteer<br />
Coordinator, handed out certificates to each veteran in every<br />
community throughout <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s. He also showed WWII: The Music<br />
Video, Volume 2.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s staff and the greater community also got involved with<br />
Veterans Day. Over several weeks, staff donated toiletries to support<br />
the 2nd Annual <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Comfort Care Drive to benefit Veterans Village of San Diego. On Veterans Day,<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Manor Residents conducted a “packing party” to create 150 care packages full of items like new<br />
undergarments, toothpaste, and soap. The comfort packages were given to homeless veterans over the<br />
holidays through the Veterans Village of San Diego winter shelter program. It’s estimated that 30 to 40%<br />
of San Diego County’s homeless are veterans.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> Employees Have Talent<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Manor Residents witnessed a collection of talent not seen from employees that serve them every<br />
day of the year! A line-up of music, dance, and comedy from waitstaff, receptionists, and administrators<br />
showed off their talent to over 50 Residents in the LUV<br />
Lounge this fall.<br />
Employee performers included: Justin Weber, Villa<br />
Administrator, who played guitar and sang a modern<br />
ballad; Debby Reaza, Dietary Director, and her group,<br />
the Ramona Rocketts, performed Elvis’ "G.I. Blues"; the<br />
Admissions Team, who sang “Mr. Sandman”; Alison<br />
Dunn, Villa Activity Coordinator, who played a ukulele<br />
and sang; and <strong>St</strong>ewart Gaddy, Foundation Coordinator,<br />
and his wife who danced to “Thriller”.<br />
“It’s great to have employees show off their other talents”, said Manor Resident Jim Campbell. “We were<br />
definitely entertained.”

Holiday Season Happenings<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> is very fortunate to have the community spread holiday cheer<br />
to our seniors. Early in December, volunteers from<br />
Jack in the Box spent an afternoon decorating <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Villa and<br />
turned it into a winter wonderland that would make Santa proud.<br />
Afterwards, they served hot cider, cocoa, scones and cookies to the<br />
Residents. “Volunteering at the Villa was a very rewarding experience<br />
and we were very pleased to have had the opportunity to visit with the<br />
Residents and give a little back”, said volunteer Sherri Sanchez.<br />
Every year on Christmas Eve, staff and their family members play the<br />
role as “Santa’s Elves” and deliver hundreds of holiday gift bags to the<br />
residents while they are sleeping. In order to fill over 500 Christmas<br />
gift bags given to <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s Residents and Participants, two volunteer “stuffing parties” were organized.<br />
Volunteers from Morgan <strong>St</strong>anley, Love Uniting Volunteers, Allied PRA and the Foundation prepared<br />
the gift bags in record time. “We had a wonderful time and it was a pleasure to help", said volunteer<br />
Janifer Rizzuto of Morgan <strong>St</strong>anley. "I could see a sparkle in the eyes of our senior neighbors as we sang<br />
Christmas carols. It was an honor to lend a hand and bring joy to them. We’re looking forward to our<br />
next event.”<br />
A special thanks to Marie Tuthill, Joyce Frye and Shirley Knox for their generous donations towards the<br />
goodies in the gift bags. Also, thanks to the Road Runner Company for the beautiful calendars, the<br />
Ohr Shalom Synagogue for the Hanukkah gift bags for the Jewish Residents and Participants, and<br />
Mary Kay for the gift bags to <strong>Senior</strong> Day Participants. <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> PACE would like to thank the<br />
Rancho Bernardo Girl Scouts for providing and handing out 200 gift bags for PACE Participants.<br />
<strong>St</strong>ewart Gaddy, Volunteer Coordinator, and his wife, Cynthia, continued their tradition of hosting a staff<br />
holiday gathering with hot cider and cookies in the <strong>Community</strong> Care Center Café. This year was extra<br />
special because Carol Hubbard and Justin Weber performed “White Christmas” for Child Care and<br />
<strong>Senior</strong> Day Participants. Justin played the guitar and Carol played the saxophone. It was a joyous occasion<br />
for everyone just two days before Christmas.<br />
PACE Executive Director Recognized As Outstanding<br />
Business Woman in <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s PACE Executive Director, Carol Hubbard, was recognized<br />
as a finalist at the 18th Annual "Women Who Mean" Business<br />
Awards. "Carol’s empowering management style has allowed her<br />
team to grow professionally, take on new and challenging projects,<br />
and care for a very frail population. Carol has done amazing things<br />
for the PACE program", said Cheryl Wilson. “It’s an honor to have<br />
her on the team and for the greater community to recognize her<br />
importance to the seniors of San Diego.”
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Connection</strong> · <strong>Winter</strong> <strong>2012</strong> · 7<br />
Culture Change and Renovations at the McColl Health Center<br />
Culture Change is a model of person-centered care, which transforms<br />
a medical community into a supportive home-like environment for the<br />
Residents. Within that model, Residents’ needs and preferences come<br />
first, so they have more control in their daily lives. <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> has been on<br />
the Culture Change journey for 3 years now, and continues to plan for<br />
the future.<br />
"In a nursing home community like <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> McColl Health Center, we<br />
recognize that Residents are no longer living in the comforts of their own<br />
home. That's why we make every effort to create a home-like environment," said Lisa Hanthorn, Director<br />
of Nursing. "Our goal is to rekindle the feelings of independence and choice that our Residents once had.<br />
Culture Change is instrumental in allowing us to accomplish that, along with our continued effort to make<br />
our Residents feel as comfortable as possible."<br />
Through several charitable gifts, <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> has upgraded all of the Resident rooms with new electric beds,<br />
furniture, televisions, and decor. Later this year, we will remodel the nurse's station, install phones in all<br />
rooms, and modernize our dining/activity room space that will feature a bistro. Please feel free to visit and<br />
see our ongoing improvements to make the McColl Health Center feel less institutional and more homelike.<br />

<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s PACE to Open Center in the South Bay<br />
The building looks like an eyesore. It's been vacant for well over 2 years and neglect has taken it's toll. But<br />
where some people see a graffiti-tagged blight on community, we see a thriving PACE Center where frail<br />
seniors receive important healthcare services they need.<br />
That's the dream we shared on November 17th with over 100<br />
guests as we gathered for a groundbreaking ceremony at<br />
603 L <strong>St</strong>reet, the site of the next PACE site. Several members of<br />
the PACE team manned their stations throughout the building<br />
to explain to guests why the PACE model of care is so effective<br />
in transforming the lives of the frail elderly. Transportation,<br />
nutrition, social services, and physical therapy. All play a roll in<br />
helping the elderly live rewarding, healthy lives.<br />
Pat Ford, "The Father<br />
of PACE" in San Diego<br />
New PACE Site<br />
Once the program reaches capacity, the new PACE site will create<br />
over 50 new jobs and serve 275 seniors. That's 275 low-income and<br />
very frail seniors receiving wrap-around medical and social services,<br />
warm, nourishing meals, opportunities to socialize with others and a<br />
number of home-based supports. And because of PACE, a majority of<br />
them will remain living independently and safely in their community,<br />
and out of nursing homes.<br />
“Opening a new PACE site in the South Bay is the right thing to do”,<br />
said Board Emeritus, Pat Ford. “We’ve already seen the importance<br />
of this program for the frail elderly living in the city centre, and now<br />
seniors in the South Bay will have the same coordinated care services<br />
that will help them live independently with dignity, and choice.”<br />
Between pre-development, construction and equipment costs, it will take over $4.5 million to convert the<br />
existing structure in Chula Vista into a thriving PACE Center. <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Paul's</strong> fundraising efforts have raised<br />
over $500,000 through the generous support of individuals and organizations.<br />

Save the Date and Meet the LUV Gala Chair!<br />
The 29 th annual <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s LUV Gala is Saturday, August 25 th at Paradise Point Resort & Spa. This year’s theme is<br />
Endless Summer of LUV.<br />
Marilyn MacNair, the <strong>2012</strong> LUV Gala Chair, is a remarkable interior<br />
designer and has been involved with <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s in some capacity since<br />
the early 1990s. After helping design the dining room at the Manor, she<br />
quickly fell in love with <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s and the mission to care for San Diego’s<br />
seniors.<br />
Marilyn’s work has been featured throughout the communities of<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Paul’s. These days, she is a Design Consultant for the Health Care<br />
Group and <strong>St</strong>. Paul’s. Marilyn, a San Diego native and alumna of SDSU,<br />
can often be seen exploring Balboa Park.<br />
In 2011, she joined the 2011 LUV Gala Committee and was definitely a<br />
“mover and shaker.” When asked if she would Chair the very important<br />
fundraising event for <strong>2012</strong>, Marilyn said that, “Volunteering for the 2011<br />
LUV Gala was just plain fun...I can't wait to do it again!"<br />
If you have any questions or would like to join the Planning Committee, please contact Foundation Coordinator<br />
