Three Appalachian Regional Healthcare System employees were recently selected from 65 nominations to receive Mountain Mover Awards for the second quarter.
This quarterly recognition is part of a new initiative to celebrate non-nursing staff at Watauga Medical Center, Appalachian Regional Medical Associates practices and at Avery Healthcare Market facilities.
“While we will continue to uplift and honor our nursing staff through DAISY and Sunflower Awards, we wanted to expand our recognition efforts to encompass all areas of our organization and give our exceptional non-nursing employees recognition,” said Christina Nurnberg, Employee Experience Specialist. “The Mountain Mover Award was created to recognize excellence among our non-nursing team members who demonstrate exceptional performance, creativity and innovation, leadership, customer service, teamwork, professionalism, adaptability, continuous learning, community involvement, and a positive attitude.”
Mountain Mover Award Recipients for Quarter 2 are:
• Annette Berry was selected among the nominees from Appalachian Regional Medical Associates. She works at Boone Urology Center.
• Madison Crowe was selected for the Avery Healthcare Market. She works for Appalachian Regional Behavioral Health.
• Among the Watauga Medical Center nominees, Erica Fletcher from the lab was selected to receive the quarter two award.

Annette Berry was selected among the nominees from Appalachian Regional Medical Associates. She works at Boone Urology Center.
Annette had multiple nominations submitted on her behalf. One of them remarked: “Annette’s outstanding performance is an inspiration. Her performance is always top-notch even when she takes on more work. Annette is a huge asset to the whole team and our patients daily.”
Madison Crowe was selected for the Avery Healthcare Market. She works for Appalachian Regional Behavioral Health.
According to her nomination form, “Maddi is a phenomenal asset to the ARBH team. She quietly leads by example and demonstrates what care coordination should be in any setting. Everyone is a little more positive when Maddi is around. They know she will get the job done correctly and communicate the plan clearly. When unexpected challenges come up, she sees that they are resolved quickly.”
Among the Watauga Medical Center nominees, Erica Fletcher from the lab was selected to receive the quarter two award.
Her nomination form states: “She is dependable, honest and has her fingers
on the pulse of each unit and patients… She is prompt, genuinely concerned for patients and staff. If she notices that a staff member is off work, she will ask if everything is okay, and follow up days after. She uses her time wisely while on each unit, but always making sure to check on everyone.” (Photo not available).
