At HPRC in Columbus, GA, you’ll step into a role that goes far beyond traditional outpatient care. As part of a program affiliated with Easter Seals, you’ll work in a fully integrated environment where therapy is embedded into a child’s daily life.  You’ll collaborate side by side with Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapists, as well as teachers and caregivers, to support children with developmental delays and special needs while also treating outpatient pediatric patients from the local community. This is a rare opportunity to practice in one of the largest pediatric therapy settings in the region, where you can build meaningful relationships and see your impact in real time.  

 

Columbus offers the energy of a growing city with a strong sense of community  without congestion. Located near a major Army installation, the area provides a diverse patient population, outdoor recreation, and easy access to both the mountains and the coast.
