BUFFALO, N.Y. (WBEN) - Robert Nesselbush will replace Jody Lomeo as the CEO of Kaleida Health once Lomeo's contract expires at the end of the year.

Kaleida Health made the announcement on Tuesday morning.

“I am thrilled with today’s announcement,” Lomeo said. “Many organizations talk about succession planning; we are living it. This is best-in-class governance and board leadership, and that is good for Kaleida Health and our community. Since he came into the organization, Bob has made a major and tangible impact. His skill set is very unique and diverse, being able to align strategy, operations, quality and finance. I am really happy that we will be able to work together moving forward to ensure a smooth transition.”

Kaleida Health is now in the process of searching for a new CFO.
