Grady clears hurdle toward non -profit status

The DeKalb County Commission has unanimously approved an administrative makeover for cash-strapped Grady Memorial Hospital. DeKalb's approval was the last major hurdle facing the deal to turn over hospital management to a nonprofit governing board. The plan was approved by the Fulton County Commission last week. Local and state leaders have been scrambling to find a solution for Grady, which was threatening to close its doors last year.
