Healthcare visa sponsors in Georgia: common questions
Which hospitals and healthcare employers in Georgia sponsor H-1B visas?
From 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, the US Labor Department certified 368 H-1B applications for healthcare jobs in Georgia from 103 employers. The most came from Emory University (69), Emory Healthcare, Inc. (27) and Piedmont Medical Care Corporation (27).
What healthcare jobs are sponsored in Georgia?
Most applications there were for physicians, medical laboratory scientists, caregivers and home health aides, of 29 occupations in all (every one).
Do employers in Georgia sponsor green cards for healthcare workers?
Yes: 222 certified PERM green card applications from 57 employers, the most from 1st Senior Cares, LLC (38), PruittHealth (37) and Courtland Health Care Services Inc (30). Among them 50 for caregivers, 42 for home health aides, 37 for certified nursing assistants and 2 for direct support professionals, which go through the EB-3 route because the H-1B needs a degree. Registered nurses and physical therapists are on Schedule A, so their green cards are filed with USCIS directly and rarely appear here.
Are there jobs open in Georgia that offer visa sponsorship?
15 open healthcare jobs in Georgia say in their own posting that they sponsor a visa, each quoting what it offers.
How current is this, and where does it come from?
From the Office of Foreign Labor Certification's disclosure files for 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, published 2026-08-07, by each application's worksite state. Only applications the Labor Department certified are counted, each read as an occupation by its own job title. CareJobs.Now rebuilds these figures each quarter the files are published.
