We have an opportunity within our team for a dietitian to cover a clinical caseload across the adult inpatient wards, rotating between the admission, surgical and medical wards.
The role is ideal for a dietitian with experience in the acute setting. Specifically, experience of creating oral and enteral nutrition plans for acutely unwell adult patients is required. You will also need experience of managing home enterally fed patients, admitted to the hospital and requiring adaptation of their usual feeding regimen and safe discharge home once well.
Once established within the role, there will be the opportunity to be trained to cover ITU and Parenteral Nutrition rounds.
Responsibilities
- To be responsible for providing comprehensive nutritional care for patients on the adult wards, identifying medium and high-risk patients and initiating interventions immediately to prevent further deterioration in nutritional status and associated complications.
- To act as an expert resource for the management of adult inpatients and support the education and training of dietetic students and other health care professionals within the organisation.
- To participate in audit and research activities within the department.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
