Job Summary:
The Registered Dietitian (RD) plays a central role in eating disorder treatment and takes on full responsibility for all dietary services throughout the treatment process. The therapeutic treatment team uses recommendations from the RD to sculpt appropriate meal plans and generate a healthy trajectory for nutrition, weight maintenance and ultimately a successful increase in weight over the course of the patient’s treatment. Formal documentation will also be required to conduct proper nutritional assessments over the course of treatment. In addition, the RD will connect directly with patients and patient families to express the most effective ways to tailor a diet that improves health and wellness both during the patient’s time in the treatment and after they have returned home.
