4 A YEAR IN REVIEW Zubeena Mateen, M.D. Director, Hematology/Oncology Chairman, Breast Cancer Committee The Cancer Committee is responsible for developing and implementing programs that evaluate cancer care at Holyoke Medical Center with respect to quality assurance and patient care. The committee organizes cancer screening sessions for various cancer sites, such as colon, prostate and skin. The committee also institutes programs to meet the standards of the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer. In 2014, Holyoke Medical Center s cancer program was surveyed by a representative of the American College of Surgeons, Dr. Peter Hopewood in May and received a full three-year accreditation with commendations in the areas of its clinical trials, cancer registrar education, public reporting of outcomes, following pathology protocols, oncology nursing care and accuracy of cancer data reporting. Holyoke Medical Center has been accredited by the American College of Surgeons for over thirty years and this is the highest rating the hospital has ever achieved in its history of affiliation. This accreditation is in addition to a full three-year reaccreditation for HMC s breast cancer program by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) in 2013 which ensures that Holyoke Medical Center provides multidisciplinary, high quality patientcentered care for its breast cancer patients. HMC was the first accredited breast cancer center in Western Massachusetts. The maintenance of these accreditations requires a rigorous examination at the time of survey and in the months leading up to survey of all policies, procedures, programs and data of the HMC cancer program and its staff. In compliance with the college, Holyoke Medical Center started a breast cancer navigation program. A certified nurse navigator is responsible for coordinating care for breast cancer patients. In the future, navigation will be provided for other cancer diagnoses. A community needs assessment done for area hospitals including Holyoke Medical Center showed a high incidence and mortality rate for Hispanic breast and prostate cancer patients. This is an area of concern for Holyoke Medical Center since there is a significant Hispanic population serviced by the medical center. The cause of this problem may be related to social, financial and logistical problems of the affected population. In 2014, the cancer committee redesigned its quality indicators reported to the Patient Care Assessment committee to do ongoing monitoring of time between abnormal mammogram to biopsy, time from biopsy to surgery, outmigration of breast cancer patients, venous complications of patients with ports and no shows in the oncology department. Dr. Francis Martinez was appointed liaison to the American College of Surgeons. To meet the standards set forth by the Commission on Cancer, the hospital must review data submitted to the National Cancer Database and use benchmark reports. During 2014, the liaison reported on this data quarterly. In 2014, studies were done on relative five-year survival rates for breast cancer in general and for women of ethnicity. Breast cancer staging and treatment were also studied. A death certificate match was done between the cancer registry and the state/federal reporting authorities. 2
5 Outreach programs such as the Women s Health Fair was held in October, which was well attended. A men s health fair was also done. The navigators went into the greater Holyoke community to grocery stores and churches to promote cancer awareness. Lung cancer screening by low dose CT scan was discussed throughout the year. Dr. Steven Urbanski, Chief of Radiology, indicated that the American College of Radiology has recommended lung cancer screening. Plans are underway in 2015 to proceed with this program. A Survivor s Day luncheon was held in June and was very well attended. There are plans underway to expand the oncology unit. Another oncologist, Dr. Renuka Dulala was hired in September. A cancer survivorship program is scheduled to begin in The committee continues to coordinate educational opportunities for the medical staff and public with tumor and breast cancer conferences held monthly. In 2014, it was an exciting year for the Holyoke Medical Center s Breast Cancer Center. The committee studied breast cancer predictive markers and compared them to national standards. The ultrasound machine in the Women s Center is now accredited by the American College of Radiology to perform ultrasound guided breast biopsies. The Women s Center is now designated a Center of Excellence. vaccine. This has been an ongoing effort for five years. In 2014, the breast cancer committee worked on proceeding with physician participation in the Mastery of Breast Surgery program. Dr. Deborah Panitch has been entering her patients and will continue with assistance from the hospital registry. Hospitalwide, a transportation service was added due to a community needs assessment. Breast cancer screenings remain in place and are free to the public. The October women s health fair broadened its outreach to not only breast cancer but other women s health issues like osteoporosis, depression and menopause. The committee spent much time throughout the year on devising quality indicators concerning breast cancer timelines, between abnormal mammogram to biopsy and between biopsy to surgery. These were monitored quarterly throughout the year and showed improvements, but the process still has to be revised interdepartmentally. Breast cancer conferences are held the last Wednesday of the month and most new cases of breast cancer are presented. Plans are underway in the Oncology Department to start a survivorship program in 2015 with expansion of the department and each patient will receive a survivorship care plan which will guide them in follow up surveillance. The breast center participates in breast cancer clinical trials in cooperation with the University of Nebraska Medical Center s Breast Cancer Collaborative Registry (BCCR) which uses DNA in the hopes of the discovery of a breast cancer 3
6 CANCER CONFERENCES Thomas Gould, M.D. Co-Chairman, Cancer Committee Chief of Pathology Cancer conferences (Tumor conferences) have been held on a monthly basis during The conference is organized and moderated by the Department of Pathology. Its goal is to bring together a multidisciplinary group, including medical oncologists, radiologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, pathologists, primary care physicians, oncology nurses, the cancer registrar and other specialists, to discuss the diagnosis and management of patients with malignancies. Over the course of each year, an attempt is made to include a wide variety of anatomic sites and to discuss both the common cancer types as well as unusual malignancies. The meeting is generally held on the second Friday of the month, and over the course of an hour, usually covers three cases. The clinical history is presented by the responsible physician or physicians, after which the relevant imaging findings are demonstrated by the radiologist. This is followed by a presentation of the morphologic findings by the pathologist. Following this, there is an open discussion of the patient s diagnostic evaluation and management, and recommendations are solicited from the members of the group regarding any additional suggestions they may have pertaining to evaluation and management. Cancer conferences have been well attended and well received and provide an important forum for arriving at decisions regarding patient diagnosis and treatment in an interdisciplinary setting. They also serve as a source of education for the medical staff and other members of the hospital team. As always, attending physicians are encouraged to notify a member of the Department of Pathology regarding suggested cases for presentation. Once again, it is my pleasure to personally thank all the members of the medical staff who have so willingly taken the time to prepare and present cases at this monthly conference. Additional thanks go to the Pathology Department staff and physicians whose support and involvement make this conference possible. Finally, a special thank you goes to Lynn Downey, who continues to work tirelessly behind the scenes to make this conference a success. Phyllis Parlengas is celebrating Just being alive! with her son, Michael, at the annual 2014 Cancer Survivor s Day luncheon. 4
7 The Holyoke Medical Center Cancer Registry continues to report close to 300 new diagnoses of malignancy each year. A reference date change was made to the registry in 2014 to begin cases diagnosed in 2005 in order to facilitate rapid reporting of cases to the National Cancer Database in the future. A current follow-up rate of 98% is maintained on all cases, with a 99% follow-up rate for cases diagnosed within the past five years. Cooperation of physicians and their office staff is of vital importance to the success of cancer follow-up and continuity of care. Their efforts are greatly appreciated. The Cancer Registry utilizes the Metriq software system to provide a broad range of cancer data, representing patients, diagnoses, treatment methods and outcome. With the advent of the electronic medical record and Webex sessions, learning software updates has been made easier, along with the retrieval of cancer data. The registrar also coordinates the breast cancer center program and breast cancer clinical trials in conjunction with the University of Nebraska s Breast Cancer Cooperative Registry (BCCR) which seeks to develop a breast cancer registry to include biological material which may be used in the future for the development of a breast cancer vaccine. The Registry saw many requests for information in These requests were from staff physicians, as well as external groups requesting participation in different studies. Registry information was utilized by administration in their efforts to assess patient care for improvements. Physicians and staff are urged to utilize the Registry s information for studies of their own interest at any time. The cancer registrar attended the North American Association of Cancer Registrars webinar in October on staging. The registrar completed a graduate degree in public health in CANCER REGISTRAR S REPORT Lynn M.

10 Cancer Treatment at Holyoke Medical CANCER PROGRAM Holyoke Medical Center has maintained a cancer program since 1977 and currently utilizes a reference date of January 1, 2005 for its database. This has been managed according to the requirements set forth by the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer for a community hospital. Approval status affirms that the hospital provides a full range of services for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Massachusetts Oncology Services, which is a radiation therapy service, is located on the hospital campus and is accredited by the American College of Radiology. CLINICAL PROGRAM All cancer patients admitted to Holyoke Medical Center have access to consultative services by a member of the medical staff. This represents a variety of medical and surgical specialties, radiology, laboratory and other ancillary services, which provide optimal diagnostic and staging techniques. Inpatient and outpatient oncology services at Holyoke Medical Center are directed by oncologist, Zubeena Mateen, M.D.. Oncology referrals are made to other areas, such as Boston, New Haven, New York or the National Cancer Institute for experimental or newer types of cancer treatment. The hospital is affiliated with UMASS Medical Center in Worcester. The hospital s breast cancer center was the first center in Western Massachusetts accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC). A new oncologist, Dr. Renuka Dulala was added to the oncology department in CLINICAL TRIALS The Adjuvant Online software program provides current information on cancer management, including treatment advances, clinical trials on each cancer, as well as physicians and organizations that provide care to cancer patients. The latest patient management guidelines are available for physicians on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network. The American Cancer Society provides a clinical trials matching program brochure in the information resource library located in the oncology department. The hospital participates in breast cancer clinical trials in cooperation with the University of Nebraska Medical Center. CANCER CONFERENCES Cancer conferences are generally held on the second Friday of each month. Breast cancer conferences are held on the last Wednesday of the month. Cancer conferences provide continuing medical education and are also available as a consultative service. Open discussions are encouraged among primary care physicians, pathologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, radiologists and medical oncologists. 8
11 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Programs are offered each year for continuing medical education and other related benefits to all members of the medical staff and other health care professionals. This ensures the constant access to new developments and updates in cancer care. This year s professional development included lectures on the following subjects: Pharmacology for Tobacco Use Dependence Therapy Options for HER-2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer: Case-Based Discussions Changes in Post-Mastectomy Radiation Breast Cancer Reconstruction Principles of Palliative Care A Practical Approach to Radiation Risks in Medical Imaging Metastatic Prostate Cancer Ductal Carcinoma In Situ Breast Cancer Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy for Breast Cancer Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer Surgical Margins in Breast Cancer Esophago-Gastric Carcinoma Triple Negative Breast Cancer Atypical Ductal/Lobular Hyperplasia of the Breast Male Breast Cancer Gene Expression Profiles PUBLIC EDUCATION SCREENINGS Cancer screenings allow for early detection of some types of cancer. Holyoke Medical Center is dedicated to this early detection. We provide annual public screening clinics to the general public and hospital employees for the following types of cancer during the months listed: March Colon Cancer Screening September Prostate Cancer Lecture June Skin Cancer Screening October Breast Cancer Screening HEALTH FAIRS A women s health fair is held each year in the lobby of Holyoke Medical Center featuring preventative information on breast cancer, scheduling of mammograms, skin care tips, pink carnation and rose sales, as well as many raffles with information on other women s health issues such as osteoporosis, menopause and depression. In 2014, the initiation of a men s health fair was done in June. Staff of Holyoke Medical Center make themselves available for other community events. In 2014, events were done at senior centers, grocery stores, churches and downtown health centers to distribute educational materials on cancer. Participation at health care expos like the Table Top Exposition was done in
12 BREAST CANCER AWARENESS Each October, Holyoke Medical Center promotes Breast Cancer Awareness month in several ways. Participants in the breast cancer screening are provided with written information, breast self-exam instructions, and a lecture on breast cancer by an oncologist and breast exams by a physician. Participants also have the opportunity to make an appointment for a mammogram. Breast cancer awareness is recognized throughout the month of October with events such as: Pink pancake breakfast Wear pink to work day Pink latex glove day Women s health fair Painting fundraiser Pink raffle baskets and flower sales AWARENESS THROUGH MEDIA Holyoke Medical Center is dedicated to providing information to the community and making the community aware of healthcare news that may help or affect its members. For this reason, multiple physicians provide interviews with the media on cancer whenever requested which appeared on television or in a written format. These interviews are then shared through social media outlets, such as Facebook.
