Are you an enthusiastic and motivated Dietitian looking to make a difference?
Join PARALEL, an innovative rehabilitation, relapse prevention and alternative to admission service supporting adults with eating disorders across community and inpatient settings. As part of a developing multidisciplinary team, you will provide specialist dietetic support to help people maintain recovery and remain safely within their communities.
The Role Will Include
- Working with a high level of autonomy.
- Providing a specialist dietetic service to adults with complex eating disorders, including assessment, intervention and care planning.
- Developing, implementing and evaluating nutritional care plans to support recovery.
- Promoting optimal physical health, wellbeing and quality of life.
- Supporting relapse prevention and transitions from inpatient to community care.
The successful candidate will have a good understanding of dietetic practice, mental health and eating disorders, and be committed to delivering compassionate, recovery-focused care within a new and evolving service.
The role requires regular travel to service users' homes and community settings; therefore, access to suitable transport for work purposes is essential.
