Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners recently approved the appointment of retired Gwinnett County Public Schools Associate Superintendent Dr. Francis E. Davis to the Gwinnett Hospital Authority Board of Directors.

The Hospital Authority oversees the operation of a network of nonprofit community healthcare facilities and other providers in Gwinnett including the Gwinnett Medical Center, the Gwinnett Woman’s Pavilion, the Gwinnett Medical Center of Duluth, the Gwinnett Extended Care Center and the Glancy Rehabilitation Center in Duluth.

Davis retired from GCPS two years ago as Associate Superintendent of Human Resources and Talent management. She remains involved in the community and at the school district where she works part-time as an Associate Superintendent of District Performance and Community Engagement.

“I am extremely honored to have been recommended and approved to serve in this capacity,” Davis said. “In my mind there are two top needs in our community; education and health and wellness.”

Davis’ three-year term on the Hospital Authority will expire in 2021.
