Dietician Jobs description

Dietitians typically work in places like prisons, schools, company cafeterias, nursing homes, and hospitals to provide people with dietary knowledge. Educating people on healthy diet habits and to prevent illnesses is one of the basic duties of the dietitian.

Dietitians may plan special diets for patients suffering from diabetes, kidney failure, heart disease, or obesity. Dietitians also manage the food departments of institutions such as public health clinics as well as work for home health agencies and health organizations. Additionally, dietitians educate people on grocery shopping and prepare food for children, the elderly, and people with different diseases. Handling safety and sanitation matters, training, budgeting, preparing reports and records, and purchasing food and supplies are also among the major duties of the dietitian. Dietitians may assist patients with addressing issues such as cholesterol reduction and weight loss as well.

To become a dietitian one must have a high school degree and must have completed coursework in health, biology, chemistry, communications, and mathematics. Candidates for dietitian jobs are more competitive if they have bachelor's degrees in areas like dietetics, food systems, and nutrition. Certified, licensed, or registered dietitians are given first preference for dietitian jobs. Dietitians who wish to work in public health or conduct research need to have advanced degrees. Dietitians can also specialize in pediatric or renal dietetics.
