Nutrition Support Dietitian - London, United Kingdom - Central London Community Health Trust
Description
Job summary
We have an exciting opportunity for a Band 6 Dietitian to join our friendly and progressive community team. The successful applicant will have gained skills and experience across a range of clinical dietetic specialities in either an acute or community setting in order to specialise further in oral nutritional support and home enteral tube feeding.
The Nutrition Support Service covers clinical caseloads for malnutrition / appropriate prescribing, adult home enteral tube feeding, and complex obesity. This role requires some face to face domiciliary and nursing home visits in the borough of Barnet which makes a car driver preferable. We also provide clinics which may be face to face or virtual, and this will allow some home working. The team meets fortnightly to support communication, team building and staff well-being.
Main duties of the job
The successful applicant will mainly support patients in the community at risk of malnutrition by liaising with patients, relatives and carers around a food-based approach and the appropriate prescribing of oral nutritional supplements in line with our pathway and the North Central London (NCL) formulary. There will also be scope for you to gain experience in supporting patients on home enteral tube feeding. You will regularly communicate with GP practices, hospital dietitians, pharmacists and other community based teams such as nursing, One Care Home and Frailty MDT's, and be able to contribute to various networks across CLCH and NCL.
You will gain further experience in supervising students, and management of dietetic assistants and junior staff. CLCH provides excellent opportunities for your own professional growth through Dietetic and AHP networks, clinical training courses and leadership development programmes.
