At 86, Carol Bauer is still on call around the clock in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut. This fiery and charismatic volunteer and interfaith chaplain spends long days and many late nights supporting families in crisis, advising staff, comforting and cuddling sick babies, and helping parents cope with unimaginable loss.
Supporting Norwalk Hospital is a family affair. Carol’s husband, George Bauer, a respected executive who spent more than 30 years with IBM, has served as a member of the Norwalk Hospital Board of Trustees, the Norwalk Hospital Foundation board, and WCHN Board of Directors.
