“I’m honored to take on this new role and continue serving within a system that prioritizes compassionate, equitable and innovative care,” Gregory said. “I look forward to supporting our leaders and teams in the Multi-State and Primary Health divisions as we extend the healing ministry of Christ to more communities across the country.”

Gregory earned both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in nursing, and a master’s degree in health care administration from the Georgia Southern University Armstrong Campus in Savannah, Georgia. In 2011, she completed her doctorate in global leadership from Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida.
