🌟 MEET OUR DIRECTOR OF QUALITY ASSURANCE, KYLE — WHOSE LEADERSHIP & ENERGY SHAPE THE BRIDGE 💙

For the past year and a half, Kyle has been a steady, trusted presence at The Bridge — and if you’ve spent any time with him, you know he’s the kind of leader who makes everything smoother, clearer, and easier to navigate. As our Director of Quality Assurance, he brings sharp expertise, steady guidance, and a sense of humor that keeps even the toughest days feeling lighter.

Kyle has a tremendous leadership style — confident yet approachable, smart yet humble, professional yet never too serious to crack a joke when the moment needs it. He makes people feel supported and comfortable asking questions, even about compliance topics that normally make eyes glaze over. He leads with patience, clarity, and an attitude that lifts up the whole team.

And honestly? Kyle is just fun to work with. He brings laughter into meetings, eases heavy moments, and proves daily that leadership can be strong and supportive without losing its personality.

👉 We’re open and continuing to provide care and services as we always have.

There has been recent discussion about proposed rule changes from the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) that could impact behavioral health and substance-use providers across the state.

These changes are still being reviewed. We’ll continue to advocate for access to care and keep our community informed as things move forward.

For more details, please watch the attached news segment.

Interested in learning more or sharing feedback? Public comments are open through January 16. You can review the proposal and submit comments by emailing DHHS.BehavioralHealthDivision@nebraska.gov

Many detox beds in the state of Nebraska already have a waitlist, and new rules proposed by the state’s Department of Health and Human Services could make it worse.
