Grady Memorial Hospital – Grady is the only level-one trauma hospital in the northern part of the state and it has been hemorrhaging money for years. Budget woes came to a head about a year ago when Grady officials worried they could not make payroll, much less update aging equipment. Metro Atlanta business leaders stepped in, found funding, took over the board and hired a new CEO, Michael Young. After a few months on the job, he joins us with his plans to resuscitate this 950-bed facility that so critical to the region.
How has religion shaped Georgia's history? And how can understanding its impact help us tackle social issues in the future? Dr. David Williams, Professor of Religion at UGA and author of a new book From Mounds to Megachurches: Georgia's Religious Heritage joins us with his insights.
