New COO of Peace Care Appointed
Peace Ministries and the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace are pleased to announce the appointment of Kyle Hreben, MBA, LNHA, as chief operating officer of their sponsored ministry Peace Care, located in Jersey City, N.J.
Kyle possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience across the full continuum of long-term care. His positions have spanned skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, hospice and home healthcare. Most recently, he served as executive director at National Lutheran Communities and Services in Rockville, Md., and his attraction to faith-based care settings and alignment with the Congregation’s core values were major determinants in his desire to join Peace Care.
“We are pleased to welcome Kyle Hreben to Peace Care,” said Catherine Yaxley, MBA, CPA, RN, chair of the Peace Care board of trustees who also chaired the search committee. “Kyle’s extensive experience has allowed him to become well-versed in crafting and implementing operational improvement strategies, a talent that is very welcome in our challenging long-term care environment. His knowledge is essential in ensuring we’re keeping up with the ever-changing needs of our residents and making high-quality care a priority. Further, Kyle’s commitment to mission and faith-based settings will strengthen our commitment to providing care with dignity for the healing of the whole person.”
“I am excited to join Peace Care as its chief operating officer and lead the organization forward,” Kyle said. “I am inspired by the mission and high-quality care that both Peace Care St. Ann’s and Peace Care St. Joseph’s provide to the greater Hudson County community.”
Kyle holds both a Bachelor of Arts in Communications Management and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Dayton. A licensed nursing home administrator, Kyle is active in LeadingAge, which represents more than 5,000 nonprofit aging services providers and other mission-minded organizations.
