Kathy Wallace

Kathy Wallace is the CEO of LifeCare Hospital of Plano, part of LifeCare Hospitals of North Texas. A registered nurse with roughly 35 years in healthcare and about 18 of them at LifeCare, she rose through clinical and executive roles into the corner office. She is one of an all-female group of CEOs, all trained in critical care, who lead LifeCare's North Texas long-term acute care hospitals. Her focus is on early-intervention and mobilization protocols that shorten recovery times for the most fragile, critically ill patients while cutting readmissions.
