  • Demonstrated initiative, accountability, and ownership in professional responsibilities.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to build trust, inspire others, and foster positive relationships.
  • Learning agility and coachability, including the ability to seek, receive, and apply feedback for continuous improvement.
  • Ability to adapt to change, navigate ambiguity, and perform effectively in a fast-paced environment.
  • Alignment with Pennant's CAPLICO core values and commitment to a culture of local leadership, ownership, accountability, and growth.


Program Expectations:

  • Willingness and ability to relocate based on available opportunities and business needs upon successful completion of the program.
  • Ability to travel throughout the program for training, shadowing experiences, and leadership development events.
  • Commitment to fully engage in all program requirements, including classroom learning, operational training, mentoring, field experiences, and leadership development activities.


Compensation:
$90,000–$120,000 during the training program. Salary may be renegotiated upon successful completion of the CCIT program, and being extended an offer to join a Pennant affiliated agency as the Director of Clinical Services role.
