Paralegal - Contracts

We are building a World Class Service Center in Boise, ID, and invite you to join a Team of people who are committed to a core objective of supporting life-changing service and providing professional expertise to the agencies we support and their leaders.

About the Company

Pennant Services is one of the most dynamic and progressive companies in the rapidly expanding home health, hospice, and home care industries. Affiliates of Pennant Services now operate 180+ home health, hospice, senior living, and assisted living agencies across 14 Western states and we expect this growth to continue. These agencies have no corporate headquarters or traditional management hierarchy. Instead, they operate independently with support from the “Service Center,” a world-class service team that provides the centralized clinical, legal, risk management, HR, training, accounting, IT, and other resources necessary to allow on-site leaders and caregivers to focus squarely on day-to-day care and business issues in their agencies.

About The Pennant Group

We are proud to be affiliated with the Pennant Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: PNTG). Pennant was created in 2019 in connection with The Ensign Group, Inc.’s (NASDAQ: ENSG) spin-off of its home health, hospice, and senior living businesses. Ensign was formed in 1999 with the goal of establishing a new level of quality care within the skilled nursing industry. The name “Ensign” is synonymous with a “flag” or a “standard,” and refers to Ensign’s goal of setting the standard by which all others in its industry are measured. The name “Pennant” draws on similar imagery and themes to represent our mission of becoming the “Ensign” to the home health, hospice and senior living industries. We believe that through our innovative operating model, we can foster a new level of patient care and professional competence at our independent operating subsidiaries and set a new industry standard for quality home health and hospice and senior living services.
