Summary

The board approved two letters that predesignate who may act as the home-health administrator and who may serve as administrator if the CEO is unavailable; both motions passed by voice vote.

The Petersburg Medical Center Board voted to adopt two administrative-designee letters intended to ensure continuity of management for home-health services and for the hospital administrator role.

Joe moved to approve a letter appointing the manager of home health, the director of nursing or an approved designee to assume the full responsibilities of the home-health agency administrator if the hospital administrator is unavailable. The board approved the motion by voice vote.

Joe then moved to approve a second letter designating a chief nursing officer or another approved designee to serve as administrator if the hospital administrator, Phil Obsteter, is not available; that motion was also adopted by voice vote.

The chair said signed letters will be included in the next board packet for transparency and public record. No recorded roll-call tally with individual votes was given in the meeting; both items were approved by general voice vote.

What’s next: the signed letters will be distributed with the next meeting packet and will appear in the public record.
