Six nominees were approved by the Henry County Board of Commissioners to be considered for two seats on the county’s Hospital Authority.

Dr. Tarsem Gupta’s four-year term on the authority is expiring, and the board voted March 9 to nominate Gupta, Gerald Taylor and Mike Griffin for the post. Mike Gasses is another current authority member whose four-year term is expiring, and the nominees for that seat are Gasses, Ruth Rucker and Wayne Lowrey.

The commissioners also approved the appointment of Dr. Donna Morris-McBride as a District 4 representative to the Department of Behavioral Health & Developmental Disabilities’ Regional Advisory Council.
