Kaley’s experience in healthcare started over 14 years ago. It includes a background of leadership in clinical and administrative roles in long term care, nursing, hospice & home health, and pharmacy.

Kaley’s management background began in 1997 at Louisiana State University where he earned a degree in business administration. Following the completion of his BS he completed a registered nursing degree from Our Lady of the Lake College and then quickly entered into the long term care realm.

In 2008 his Nursing Facility Administrator background began as he ran a large local nursing home as well as helped oversee other homes within the same chain. A challenge that allowed him to gain invaluable experience elevating nursing home performance, new project develop, and census growth. This eventually led him into a new role as co-founder and president of Hometown Healthcare Management (HHM) in 2015. Under HHM Kaley and his partner acquired three different nursing homes, and have ownership and management of a couple home health agencies and hospice groups. Additionally, he is also the co-owner and operator of a pharmacy that participates in retail sales as well as healthcare applications, including his own.
