Dietary Consultant

Good Samaritan Health Center is seeking a mission-driven Dietary Consultant to support our holistic approach to care for underserved communities. In this role, you will provide expert, evidence-based nutrition services that enhance patient wellness and help prevent and manage chronic disease. Working as a core member of our Healthcare & Medical Services team, you will conduct comprehensive nutritional assessments, develop individualized care plans, and deliver counseling that reflects the cultural, social, and economic realities of the patients we serve. The Dietary Consultant will work closely with physicians, nurses, behavioral health providers, and other allied health professionals to integrate nutrition into overall treatment plans, particularly for conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and gastrointestinal disorders. You will provide both one-on-one and group counseling, using motivational interviewing and trauma-informed, culturally sensitive communication to empower patients and families to make sustainable lifestyle changes. In addition to direct patient care, you will play a key role in community health by designing and facilitating nutrition education workshops, wellness classes, and outreach activities that promote preventative health. You will help patients navigate barriers to healthy eating, including food insecurity and limited access to fresh foods, and collaborate with internal teams and community partners to connect patients to appropriate resources. Accurate, timely documentation within the electronic health record is an essential part of this position, as is active participation in quality improvement initiatives and outcomes tracking. The ideal candidate demonstrates strong clinical judgment, sound knowledge of medical nutrition therapy, and a deep commitment to serving vulnerable populations with compassion, integrity, and respect. At Good Samaritan, you will join a collaborative environment where your expertise in nutrition contributes directly to meaningful patient outcomes, professional growth, and the advancement of community wellness.
