19 Employees Honored at 2018 Service Awards

On Thursday, Feb. 22, The Center for Health Affairs' 2018 Service Awards Breakfast was held at the Crown Plaza Cleveland at Playhouse Square. The ceremony honored 19 individuals for their years of service with the organization.

Rounding out the list of recipients who were honored for three, five, ten and 15 years of service, was Director of Facilities Chris Nortz who received a standing ovation when he was recognized for his 35 years of dedicated service.

"As a director of facilities, there is nothing Chris can't fix," said Interim President & CEO Phil Mazanec. "He has meant a lot to this organization and half or more of what he does are things we can't see. And he's always there."

Recognizing many of the organization's team members were not able to enjoy the 2018 Service Awards ceremony in person, Mazanec recorded a special message to off-site team members spread across the United States. "I appreciate you being here in spirit," he said. "We can feel it. You are an important cog in the success of our organization." Vice President of CHAMPS Oncology Toni Hare also personally addressed her employees, who make up the bulk of the organization's off-site team.
