The County of Henry is seeking resumes and statements of interest for 4 citizens at large and 1 physician to serve on the hospital district board of trustees.
With the transfer of hospital operations to West TN Healthcare (WTH)-HCMC on October 1, 2024, the hospital board responsibilities have changed to that of managing property and contract compliance, not to oversee hospital operations. The county has no hospital employees or influence on WTH-HCMC hospital operations.
Candidates cannot be employed by WTH-HCMC or have any conflicts of interest. Resumes are being accepted until November 14, 2024 at the Henry County Mayor’s Office, PO Box 7, Paris, TN 38242 or they may be emailed to tkelleher@henrycountytn.org. Appointments will be staggered four-year terms. All candidates or a designated person must be present at the next County Commission meeting on November 25, 2024 at 5PM in the courthouse. Each candidate will have an opportunity to speak to the county commission for five minutes or less.
