Human Resources Intern
“Presbyterian Homes of Georgia, Inc. is a Christian ministry providing exceptional services to enhance the quality of life for senior adults.”
Student Internship - Human Resources
Our culture is based on service excellence that puts the needs of our residents first. It’s a living spirit that comes from our dedication to who we are as a Christian ministry. We believe that every human being is valuable, and they’re treated with the compassion and respect they deserve.
Since 1949, our name has been synonymous with excellence in senior living. A Christian ministry providing exceptional services, we offer gracious retirement living in six outstanding communities for those 62 and older.
We are the proud sponsor of two established Life Plan Communities: Presbyterian Village in Austell and Presbyterian Home and Retirement Community in Quitman. Presbyterian Village Athens, our third Life Plan Community opened in 2021 and, like its predecessors, offers a full spectrum of health care that includes Independent Living Residences, Assisted Living, Memory Support, Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Services.
Three additional communities, Calvin Court in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood, Philips Tower in Decatur and Swainsboro Presbyterian Apartments in Swainsboro offer comfortable, affordable apartment living for active seniors.
In addition to our exceptional communities, our commitment to quality care sets us apart. Never in our history has a resident been asked to leave because of outliving his or her financial means.
