Job Description

As an Intern at our organization, you will have the opportunity to engage in various aspects of the nutrition and dietetics field. Your responsibilities will include assisting in conducting initial nutritional assessments of clients or patients by reviewing their medical history, dietary habits, anthropometric measurements, and biochemical data. You will also learn to interpret assessment findings and identify nutritional needs accurately. Additionally, you will provide nutrition education and counseling under the supervision of a registered dietitian. This will involve helping develop and implement personalized nutrition plans based on individual needs and goals. You will educate clients on healthy eating habits, portion control, and lifestyle modifications to support their overall well-being. Another key aspect of your role will be assisting in developing meal plans that align with dietary guidelines and client preferences. You will learn to analyze the nutrient content of foods and meals using food composition databases to ensure the nutritional adequacy of the plans. Maintaining accurate and up-to-date client records, including nutritional assessments, progress notes, and meal plans, will also be part of your duties. It is essential to ensure confidentiality and adherence to legal and ethical standards in all documentation and record-keeping activities. Furthermore, you will engage in literature review and evidence-based research related to nutrition and dietetics to stay informed about current trends, guidelines, and research findings in the field. Collaboration with interdisciplinary healthcare teams, effective communication with clients, families, and caregivers, and participation in professional development activities will also be integral to your role. Moreover, you will assist with administrative tasks such as scheduling appointments, managing paperwork, and billing procedures. Contributing to quality improvement initiatives and program evaluation efforts will help enhance the overall effectiveness of our services. Adherence to ethical standards and professional codes of conduct set forth by relevant regulatory bodies is a fundamental aspect of your role. Maintaining awareness of legal regulations and guidelines governing dietetics practice is crucial to ensure compliance and uphold the highest ethical standards. Finally, you will participate in regular supervision sessions with a registered dietitian preceptor to reflect on clinical experiences, discuss challenging cases, and receive feedback. This reflective practice will contribute to your professional growth and development in the field of nutrition and dietetics. If you have at least 1 year of total work experience, it would be preferred for this internship position. The work location is in person, providing you with hands-on experience in a dynamic healthcare environment.,
