Information Technology Coordinator, Amy Bauer, was recognized today as ComWell’s 2021 Outstanding Staff of the Year.
Bauer began her career in March of 1990 at ComWell, at the time Human Service Center, where she was given a temporary position with the task of data entry transferring policy manual material into a word processor. It didn’t take long though for management to realize her capabilities and offered her the full time position of Administrative Technician just three months later.
Bauer worked hard, leveraging every possible opportunity to advance her career. She began her work as a Data Processing Technician in July of 1995 and was later promoted to Informational Technology Coordinator.
Bauer now oversees all of ComWell’s IT efforts. She maintains all of the company’s technical equipment and alone ensures that computers and computer networks as well as phone systems within the company operate efficiently and effectively, enabling all team members to do their jobs without issue.
Bauer is skilled in troubleshooting the various issues that arise across our six sites and collaborates with other professionals to maintain standards and functionality.
“Bauer is the behind-the-scenes operator our agency could not function without,” said Executive Director Shea Haury. “The amount of time and attention Amy puts into not only her job duties, but the additional responsibilities she volunteers for as a member of the Morale Committee to contribute to the culture and growth of ComWell is truly inspiring.”
“I am very honored and humbled in receiving the Employee of the Year award,” Bauer said. “Thank you to those who nominated me and supported me. I am very proud to work at ComWell. I couldn’t ask for a better group of co-workers than the staff at ComWell.”
ComWell’s Outstanding Employee of the Year may be nominated by their own manager or another manager who has recognized the outstanding character of a staff person outside of their department.
The Employee of the Year award is given to a person who truly embodies the mission, vision and values of ComWell.
