The Tennessee Department of Health this week appointed two Nashville attorneys to serve as its chief of staff and general counsel, the Nashville Post reports. Elizabeth Foy will serve as the department’s chief of staff. Foy served as legislative liaison for the department since 2021 and was appointed assistant commissioner earlier this year. She also served as an assistant district attorney in Nashville for more than 10 years. The department also appointed Mary Katherine Bratton as general counsel. Bratton originally started with TDH as assistant general counsel in 2012, and most recently served in the office of general counsel at the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation.
