  The employer for this position is stated in the job posting. The Pennant Group, Inc. is a holding company of independent operating subsidiaries that provide healthcare services through home health and hospice agencies and senior living communities located throughout the US. Each of these businesses is operated by a separate, independent operating subsidiary that has its own management, employees and assets. More information about The Pennant Group, Inc. is available at http://www.pennantgroup.com.

• About the company

  Our home health and hospice agencies and senior living communities operate relatively independently and have no traditional corporate headquarters. Instead, they are supported by a “Service Center,” a world-class team of professional resources that advise on their respective fields of information technology, compliance, human resources, accounting, payroll, legal, risk management, education and other services. This allows on-site leaders and caregivers to focus squarely on day-to-day care and business issues in their individual agency or community.
