CRAIG FOUNDATION | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 3

LETTERS FROM THE PRESIDENT & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

When I started as CEO at Craig

eight years ago, we had a problem.

Our patients were in double or triple

rooms, our HVAC system barely

worked, and the campus hardly

matched our exceptional care.

In June 2012, the board voted to take the

courageous step to move forward with a

major campaign for capital improvements

to Craig. I’m pleased to announce

that in September we completed our

construction project. We now have a

new building and new infrastructure,

giving us more space for our patients.

We completed the project on time and

$500,000 under budget. This was made

possible because of your generous

support.

Before the capital campaign and

expansion project, we raised around $3

million a year in charitable support. The

campaign got us out in the community

to tell our story to a broader audience.

We told you the stories of our patients’

bravery, their strength and their

challenges. And you responded.

As we look to the future, we know that

these stories of courage will continue to

unite us, inspire us and push us forward

as we work to empower lives.

For our patients,

Mike Fordyce

President and CEO, Craig Hospital

Last year when we successfully finished

our capital campaign and turned our

attention to raising money for a number

of important programs at Craig, we

wondered what level of assistance we

would get as we shifted our fundraising

focus away from bricks and mortar

to other needs of the hospital. Your

response was overwhelming. Because

of YOUR dedication, the Craig Hospital

Foundation not only met, but exceeded

our fundraising goals for fiscal year 2016.

We distributed more than $18 million

to finish the building project and fund

hospital programs and research. In

addition, nearly $1.1 million of assistance

was provided directly to our patients to

help address their emergency financial

and personal needs. Within these pages you

will meet some of the patients who have

benefited from the assistance YOU provided.

Because of YOU, our patients are able to

recover in a state-of-the-art environment,

benefit from cutting-edge programs, and

focus on the hard work of rehab knowing

that their personal and medical needs

are met. Because of YOU, our patient

outcomes continue to be remarkable.

I am so thankful for YOU — the members

of the Craig family — for your unwavering

support. Together, we are doing amazing

things for our courageous patients.

Gratefully,

Mary Konrad Feller

Executive Director, Craig Hospital Foundation

CRAIG CUTS THE RIBBON ON $90 MILLION EXPANDED CAMPUS

The Craig campus added approximately

85,000 square feet of new space, renovated

135,000 square feet of existing space

in its West building, and connected the

West and East buildings to create a unified

campus with a cul-de-sac main entrance

and an accessible garden plaza area.

“We are so grateful to the thousands of

donors who made this campaign possible,

and I especially want to recognize Dave

and Gail Liniger, who contributed $14

million, and the Anschutz Foundation

for its $5 million gift,” said Mary Feller,

executive director of the Craig Hospital

Foundation. “The Linigers have been

longtime supporters of Craig, and their

incredible generosity transformed the

campaign; and the Anschutz Founda-

tion’s gift provided the leverage needed

to inspire others to contribute.”

The Craig Hospital Foundation’s Redefining ROI: The Campaign for Craig Hospital raised more than $73 million for Craig. Of that amount, $50 million supported the expansion project (the hospital funded an additional $40 million of the project through cash reserves and the sale of bonds), and $23 million supported Craig’s innovative programs for its patients, including Therapeutic Recreation, Music Therapy, Community Reintegration, the School Program and the Nurse Advice Line — which are vital to a patient’s success but not covered by insurance companies. Campaign donors also supported the Patient Assistance Funds, which help patients and their families purchase adaptive equipment, remodel homes for accessibility, train caregivers, pay mortgages and meet other urgent non-medical needs.

On Saturday, Sept. 17, 2016, Craig Hospital

hosted a ribbon-cutting celebration event

for donors and other stakeholders to

mark the completion of a $90 million,

three-year construction and expansion

project to its campus.

“Our expansion gives new life to the Craig

campus and showcases our innovative

spirit, our dedicated physicians and staff,

and our excellent programs and services,”

said Mike Fordyce, president and CEO of

Craig. “All of this combined further advanc-

es our world-class care, where patients,

their families and staff all work together to

help patients achieve their greatest level of

independence and life quality.”

At the event, Craig also introduced a new brand identity, including a logo, which Fordyce explained is a powerful representation of Craig’s culture, values and history, and emphasizes the process of patients, families and staff coming together with unyielding determination

to empower lives.

“Through this campaign, we’ve been able to introduce so many more people to Craig and show them what a tremendous asset Craig truly is to this community,” said Mary Sissel, campaign chair. “This campaign was the largest fundraising effort in Craig’s 109-year history.”

PAT I E N T A S S I S TA N C E

Catastrophic brain and spinal cord

injuries are not only physically and

psychologically overwhelming, for

many Craig patients they are also

financially devastating. Expenses

associated with the injuries, often

combined with temporary or perma-

nent loss of income on the part of the

patient and/or family members who

become caregivers, can push families

underwater financially.

The Patient Assistance Funds provide

a safety net for patients and families

whose financial means (including

insurance) are inadequate to meet

the financial burdens associated with

catastrophic injury. These funds help

patients remodel homes for accessibility,

train caregivers, make travel arrange-

ments, access interpretation services,

receive needed medical or dental care,

and meet transitional financial emergencies.

Within this category, Project EQL

(Equipment for Quality Life) provides

durable medical equipment such as

wheelchairs, lifts and shower chairs.

Patient Assistance Funds also provide

educational, PEAK Center and Therapeutic

Recreation scholarships to current and

former patients.

PATIENT ASSISTANCE RECIPIENT ERIC BUSH

working hard in speech, occupational and physical therapy sessions.

As he progressed through therapy at Craig and his awareness continued to return, he became extremely worried about paying his bills. He and his wife, Jill, a stay-at-home mom, had burned through their savings account paying medical expenses and keeping the business afloat while Bush was not able to work.

“I was really freaked out about how we were going to pay our mortgage,” he says. “Suddenly 10 years’ worth of savings was gone because of something that was not my fault.”

Bush’s clinical care manager turned to the Foundation’s Patient Assistance Funds for help for the family. Donor assistance covered two months of mortgage pay-ments and power and water bills for their home in Erie.

“It was such a weight off,” Bush says. “It took me away from my money worries and put my mind back on therapy.”Bush was able to focus on his recovery and learn new cognitive skills that would help him return to work. Just one month following his discharge, he was fully back to business, regaining the clients that he lost during his initial recovery.

He is grateful for the donors who helped his family during their time of crisis.

“Before this, I always thought that I had to do things on my own, and I hated asking for help,” he says. “But now I know that there are people out there who are willing to give that little push — and it’s OK to accept the help.”

Eric Bush was on the way home from a job when his work truck was hit by a 73-year-old distracted driver who ran through a red light at 65 miles per hour.

Bush, the owner of Klear Pools, a small Colorado business that installs, remodels and maintains pools, sustained a traumat-ic brain injury, a broken neck and a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from his chest down. His assistant was also badly injured in the crash. When he was injured, he was told there was little-to-no hope that he would ever walk again.

“At first I couldn’t move anything, and I couldn’t understand why this was happening to me,” he says.

Defying predictions, he was soon able to wiggle a toe, and was up and out of bed

O P E R AT I O N T B I F R E E D O M

In Colorado alone, more than 7,200

veterans have returned from conflict

with traumatic brain injuries since

2000. For those with this serious yet

often invisible injury, the transition to

civilian life can be especially difficult.

When these conditions are untreated,

a host of problems can occur,

including substance abuse and other

unhealthy behaviors, suicide, physical

health problems, lower workplace

productivity and employment rates,

marital and parenting difficulties,

and homelessness. While a variety

of public and nonprofit services

are available to veterans with TBI,

navigating the complex web of

programs and systems is daunting.

Operation TBI Freedom (OTF), a Colorado

Springs-based program that joined the

Craig family in April 2016, helps veterans

and their families optimize benefits

and access needed services. OTF also

provides direct services not available

elsewhere to address crisis situations and

position veterans for long-term success.

Each OTF client is assigned a case

manager who works with the veteran to

resolve any immediate crises and develop

a personalized plan to advance his or her

self-sufficiency and reintegration into

civilian life over the longer term. These

plans aim to ensure that veterans

receive treatment for physical and mental

health issues, receive assistance with job

placement, are equipped for long-term

financial stability, and develop healthy

relationships with family members,

friends and community members.

After veterans formally complete

the program, they remain part of the

OTF family. OTF’s alumni program

provides ongoing access to educational

opportunities, employment/volunteer

assistance and recreational/therapeutic

activities.

OPERATION TBI FREEDOM CLIENT A R M Y S E R G E A N T M AT T S PA N G

After medically retiring from the U.S.

Army in November 2013, Spang moved to

Colorado Springs, where the challenges

that he thought he had conquered while

at Fort Sam Houston became much more

apparent. His TBI made it hard for him

to get out of bed and push himself. He

dealt with severe headaches, depression,

anxiety and constant nerve pain.

Spang asked for help and began

meeting with his Operation TBI Freedom

case manager. “I didn’t really know what

to expect, but what I found was a family,”

Spang says. “Operation TBI Freedom has

provided me the support I so badly needed.”

His case manager provided guidance,

helped him navigate complex benefit

systems, and connected him with a

variety of resources and recreational

opportunities with other veterans.

“I know they really will be there, no

matter what, and I can count on them

for help,” he says. “I believe that is what

a family is supposed to do, and OTF is

my family.”

In the months that Army Sergeant Matt Spang spent in Afghanistan, he was blown up three times. The third time, on Dec. 7, 2011, he was injured when his vehicle was struck by two IEDs. The blast caused a traumatic brain injury, broke both of his legs and caused major trauma to his lower extremities. After several weeks and surgeries attempting to save his legs, he had bilateral below-knee amputations.

“We have a deep sense of gratitude and admiration for the awe-inspiring work done at Craig Hospital each and every day! The Therapeutic Recreation Program in particular removes

limitations and introduces new ways for the patients to experience and enjoy a seemingly unlimited number of activities, whether it’s the patient’s first encounter, or their life-long passion.

We have seen first-hand how restorative and uplifting that can be!

Thank you Craig Hospital, we are all truly blessed that you are there for so many whose lives were changed because of your selfless work. We are honored to support Craig and the amazing people who are part of the Craig community, and we look forward to seeing the support for Craig grow so that together we can all change the lives of many more to come.” - The Corley Legacy Foundation

CRAIG FOUNDATION | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 191818 Craig Rehabilitation Engineer Dave Birkle

C U L T U R E O F C A R E

Craig’s mission is to provide

exceptional patient and family-

centered care for those affected

by spinal cord injuries (SCI) and

traumatic brain injuries (TBI)

throughout their lifetimes, striving

with them for optimal health,

independence and life quality.

To achieve this mission, Craig goes

well beyond the therapy and medical

care covered by insurance to provide

a range of programs that make the

future of rehabilitation available

to our patients today. To prepare

patients and families for indepen-

dence, we bring the real world to

Craig and take Craig to the real

world. As a result, Craig patients

achieve world-class outcomes on

measures such as lifetime costs

for medical care, rehospitalization,

return to school and work, and the

amount of attendant care required.

Culture of Care Programs are at the

heart of Craig’s unique approach

to rehabilitation as a foundation for

lifelong success. They include:

T-Rec specialists first learn about each

patient’s recreational interests and goals.

Then they work with individual patients

and groups of patients to identify

potential recreational resources and

craft offerings that advance patients’

skill development and successful

reintegration. As patients relearn their

favorite activities, they also learn how to

adapt equipment to meet new physical

or cognitive needs. T-Rec activities

incorporate key therapeutic elements

acquired from other disciplines (such

as sip-and-puff technology) and tailor

equipment adaptations to meet individual

needs. As Craig patients and their families

take up these pursuits, they re-engage in life.

Leisure-time activities shape our

identities, give life fullness, and

promote physical and mental health.

Through recreational activity, the

Therapeutic Recreation Program

at Craig promotes overall fitness

and well-being, with the goal of

improving, maintaining or restoring

physical strength, cognition and

mobility for someone with a

nervous system injury.

T-REC PARTICIPANT:

Lee credits the program for giving him

the confidence he needed to thrive after

he was discharged.

“After your injury, if you try to do these

things on your own, it feels strange,”

he says. “But when you go with a group

of people who are in a similar situation,

it makes it much more comfortable —

it’s almost like training for life outside

the hospital.”

Lee grew up camping and fishing with

his family, so he was excited to attend

a Therapeutic Recreation Adventure

Program camping and rafting trip near

Cotopaxi, Colorado, during the summer

of 2016. His dad attended with him.

“I think that my injury was more difficult

on my family than it was for me because

they didn’t know what I was going

through” he says. “It was very important

for me to not just get out there to go

camping, but for my dad to see I was

comfortable and independent enough

to not need assistance.”

Lee has gone on to make multiple cross-

country trips, and he’s now

volunteering as a peer mentor to

guide other new patients through

the Craig experience.

“Being at the hospital and having

people take care of you is great, but the

real challenge is getting back to doing

what you love and the things you want

to do,” says Lee.

“Therapeutic Recreation helps you

do that — there’s nothing like it.”

For Lee Castelo, getting back out into

the community following his spinal cord

injury was important. Craig’s Therapeutic

Recreation Program helped him find his way.

The Denver native was injured in a car

accident in October 2015. While an

inpatient at Craig, he participated in

several T-Rec outings, including a

shopping trip, several Denver Nuggets

games and a pheasant hunting trip.

Staying healthy is work for anyone;

for people living with a spinal cord or

brain injury, the task is even more

challenging. For this population, minor

health concerns can signal or lead to

serious health issues. Treating these

symptoms early and appropriately

reduces hospitalizations and other

complications.

The award-winning Nurse Advice Line

at Craig is the only phone-based care

and education resource in the nation

that provides specialized health care

information to people living with spinal

cord and traumatic brain injuries, their

family members, and their health care

providers. Specially trained Craig Hospital

nurses answer nonemergent calls to

the Nurse Advice Line Monday through

Friday between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. MT.

Nurses are licensed in all 50 states.

The Nurse Advice Line is a free service

and open to all, and is sustained by the

commitment of Craig Hospital and the

support of generous community partners.

Whenever possible, the program strives to reintegrate patients back into their former work environment. When patients cannot return to a job or were previously unemployed, the CR team helps patients explore their interests and pursue educational opportunities.

Many insurance policies do not cover vocational therapy as a “medical necessity.” As a result, these sources of funding cover less than half of Community Reintegration Program costs. Generous donors who recognize the long-term benefits of the CR program in the lives of Craig patients and our communities close the gap.

“We rely on this personal service

more than any other single resource

for support in so many of the unusual

and very complex situations that

arise on this SCI journey. The service

model is of the highest caliber —

there is absolutely no equivalent at

this level of consistent excellence,

response time and expertise out there.

Your service to the SCI community is

critical and unparalleled.”

–Nurse Advice Line Survey Respondent

A patient’s return to work offers

enhanced financial security as well as

deeper community connections and

life satisfaction. Craig’s Community

Reintegration specialists apply their

deep and specialized expertise to

assess patients’ capacity to return

to work or school, educate patients

about available resources, and

provide coaching and the adaptive

technology patients need to be

successful and confident.

discharged to home. In order to make more strides with her recovery, she came to Craig’s Outpatient Therapy Program and began working with the Community Reintegration Program. Perantoni and her counselor, Kelly Lombardi, worked together with the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation to get her back to work.

“I wanted to do something that would help me in my recovery, get me out of the house and allow me to contribute in a positive way,” she says.

Perantoni is now the sales and booking manager for the Phamaly Theater Com-pany, which produces plays and musicals year-round throughout the Denver metro region, cast entirely of performers with disabilities across the spectrum.

She says that being back to work has been a constant learning process, as she has had to recognize her cognitive chal-lenges. “If I get tired I have a hard time coming up with words, but I recognize and can work through that,” she says. “It’s really joyful to come to work with such a caring community of co-workers — it gives me hope in my recovery.”

Martha Perantoni experienced a stroke, which deprived her brain tissue of oxygen and nutrients. Following a long inpatient stay at an acute care hospital, she was

Prior to discharge, students and families

work with the Craig teacher to create a

school transition plan in order to make the

return to school as seamless as possible.

Craig students learn much more than

academics through the School Program.

They learn how to identify and leverage

their strengths, access formal and informal

learning opportunities in innovative ways,

and advocate for themselves. These skills

contribute to their future well-being and

success as much as the school credit they

earn during their stay at Craig.

re-engage in life.

Craig’s Music Therapy Program uses

the neuroscience of music to help

individuals with spinal cord and brain

injuries make clinical strides in areas

ranging from breath control to regu-

lation of attention and gait patterns.

Ongoing scientific research shows that

music is processed on both sides of

the brain and in a different way than

some other mediums, such as speech.

This unique processing can create

opportunities for some exciting and

unique results. Neurologic music therapy

is appropriate for individuals with and

without musical experience. Craig’s

music therapist creates successful and

challenging applications that meet a

person’s unique needs.

Neurologic music therapy is typically

not covered by private insurance; if it is,

reimbursement is extremely limited.

Consequently, Craig Hospital relies on

a variety of funding sources to ensure

this vital program continues.

Craig Hospital cares for a growing

number of adolescents and young

adults. The School Program empowers

young patients to continue their high

school studies at Craig.

While participating in individual

rehab therapies, students work

closely with Craig’s credentialed

teacher, who identifies meaningful

assignments and then supports the

students through one-on-one

instruction with appropriate

accommodations and modifications.

Students sometimes join their

classmates and teacher back home

during class using Facetime or Skype.

Patients and families need new

knowledge, skills and confidence

to move forward in life following a

catastrophic injury. While education

is woven informally throughout all

therapies, the Patient and Family

Education Program teaches patients

and family members about the

physical, psychological and social

aspects of the injury.

Classes teach patients about medical

and personal care including skin,

bowel and bladder management;

medication routines; financial

management; and common social

challenges. In 2016, the program added

adolescent-specific education courses,

updated the spinal cord injury handbook,

translated additional educational

materials into Spanish and added

a peer education assistant.

The possibilities are endless, and each

equipment modification incorporates

evaluation, design and training to

meet the unique needs of each person.

This can include the engineering and

redevelopment of appropriate “off

the shelf” systems, modification of

commercial approaches, or the design and

development of purely custom systems.

In addition to regular modifications,

in 2016 the engineers worked on

a computerized fishing rod and a

computer-controlled hunting device, and

began adapting virtual reality systems

to allow a more involved experience for

quadriplegic patients.

Craig’s Rehabilitation Engineering

department is managed by two

full-time engineers and a handful

of dedicated volunteers who work

in conjunction with all clinical

departments and physicians to

design, develop, modify, and

apply rehabilitative and assistive

technology, providing customized

solutions to meet patient needs.

The department works daily to

troubleshoot and address problems

related to wheelchairs and mobility,

provide customized workplace and

adaptive driving modifications,

and adapt a variety of assistive

technology options for personal,

therapeutic and recreational uses.

“It is impossible to try and tell someone about how special a place Craig Hospital is. Everyone’s initial stay starts with lowest point in their lives and Craig has the ability to turn that around.

Craig gives you hope and a positive attitude that you will succeed in life. That’s a special place!” - Steve Compton

CRAIG FOUNDATION | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 33Dr. Morse looks through a microscope.32

Craig’s Research Department

searches for even more effective

medical interventions and restorative

solutions for those living with spinal

cord and brain injuries.

With a staff of 22, the department

oversees an annual budget of $3.6

million in federal, state, foundation

and industry-sponsored grants.

In addition, funds raised from the

annual PUSH dinner and other

fundraising efforts support basic and

clinical research.

Many of the research funds donated

to the Craig Hospital Foundation

underwrite staff-generated clinical

research pilot studies. The goal:

building a culture of research to

advance discoveries that inform

treatment methods and ensure

Craig continues to provide the most

cutting-edge care to our patients

and families.

Among the many current or recently

completed pilot studies funded by the

Foundation are:

• An examination of health-related

quality of life in patients with spinal

cord injury utilizing Mitrofanoff

catheterization.

• An evaluation of the effect of altruistic

volunteer activity on well-being after

spinal cord injury.

• A look at the incidence, clinical

characteristics, complications and

outcomes of patients diagnosed with

post-traumatic hydrocephalus following

acquired brain injury.

• An observational case series measuring

the impact of ankle/foot orthoses for

persons with acquired brain injury or

spinal cord injury and spasticity.

• An investigation on the effect of

rhythmic auditory stimulation on gait in

traumatic brain injury.

Over the years, studies at Craig

have helped shape new and more

effective drug-, cellular-, surgical- and

rehabilitation-based treatments.

Craig’s research focus has traditionally

been clinical and translational, with an

emphasis on approaches that inform

treatments for patients, sometimes

referred to as “bench to bedside.” In 2016,

Craig welcomed a new medical director

of research, Dr. Leslie Morse, whose

expertise complements this strength with

a focus on neurodegenerative research at

the cellular and molecular levels.

Dr. Morse brings to Craig two research

projects that are building knowledge

and pushing boundaries in the field

of neuroregenerative rehabilitation,

specifically the treatment of osteoporosis

in the spinal cord injury population.

Immobilization after SCI is associated

with bone loss that leads to an increased

likelihood of fractures in people with SCI.

Dr. Morse is conducting a double-

blind, randomized, placebo-controlled

clinical trial to determine the osteogenic

benefits of statins (a common cholesterol

medication) in acute SCI. The trial’s

hypothesis is that a one-year course

of simvastatin will prevent bone loss in

the first year following SCI, as well as

promote neurological recovery or reduce

neuropathic pain following acute SCI.

The second study — a randomized,

controlled clinical trial — explores the

skeletal benefits of exoskeleton-assisted

ambulation. The trial’s hypothesis is that

reintroduction of ambulation will improve

quality of life due to associated pain

reduction and improvements in mood

and functional connectivity of emotional

networks in the brain. The study will also

determine whether exoskeleton-assisted

gait training increases bone strength in

the paralyzed lower extremity.

A newly constructed laboratory at

Craig and a donor-funded bone density

scanner will assist in this work.

Dr. Morse and her team are also

developing a new research focus in stem

cell therapy for motor recovery after

spinal cord injury using dental pulp found

in teeth. In the future, Dr. Morse hopes to

move to clinical trials to determine the

safety and feasibility of developing this as

a treatment for neurological injury.

CRAIG FOUNDATION | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 3736 Brittany Shaney uses the Indego exoskeleton

C A P I T A L E Q U I P M E N T

Every year, Craig invests millions of

dollars in state-of-the-art equipment

that advances our patients’ health,

independence and life quality.

With the completion of our capital

expansion, a number of programs

are growing and need medical or

therapy equipment to accommodate

the increased number of patients

served. The Foundation relies on

donor support to pay for equipment

such as new Computers on Wheels

(COWS) for the Assistive Technology

Lab; outpatient physical therapy

equipment, from mats to bikes to

gaiting systems that use functional

electrical stimulation technology;

equipment to build upper arm

strength; and instruments for Craig’s

specialty clinics.

PEAK Center personal training client

Brittany Shaney, who sustained a

complete spinal cord injury in a March

2016 car accident, uses the Indego with

her physical therapist, Natalee Takasumi.

The exoskeleton helps her develop her

returning core muscles and control

her muscle spasticity. According to

Natalee, the Indego can help Brittany

develop balance and core strength while

getting the benefits of a full, dynamic

cardiovascular workout.

Candy Tefertiller, director of Physical

Therapy, is excited to have added the

Indego exoskeleton to the services

provided in the PEAK Center. “It allows

us to provide our members access to

the latest advancements in exoskeleton

technology, as the system is modular

and around one-half the weight of other

exoskeletons currently on the market,”

she says. “It also offers an upgraded

variable assistance mode, providing

the ability to individualize the amount

of assistance the device provides to

each client.”

Brittany enjoys the opportunity to be up

and moving in the Indego. “It’s the only

device that’s allowed me that sense of

freedom again,” she says.

Gifts received in 2016 from the Jay

and Rose Phillips Foundation and the

Monfort Family Foundation, as well as a

generous early-2017 gift from the Galena

Foundation, enabled the recent purchase

of an Indego exoskeleton machine.

Indego is a powered orthosis, sometimes

referred to as an exoskeleton, worn

around the waist and legs that allows

individuals with spinal cord injuries to

stand and walk.
