Introduction
Embark on a transformative journey as a Clinical Registered Dietitian on a dynamic travel assignment in Watertown, New York. Your expertise in medical nutrition therapy will directly influence patient outcomes, recovery trajectories, and the daily well-being of those you serve. This multi-week opportunity is more than a contract—it’s a platform to deliver compassionate, evidence-based nutrition care across inpatient and multidisciplinary settings, while expanding your professional horizon within the clinical dietetics specialty. You’ll assess nutrition needs, craft personalized care plans, monitor progress, and empower patients through education that supports sustained health. Beginning 03/23/2026, this role guarantees 40 hours per week and offers a competitive weekly pay range of $1,804–$1,900, with ample room for contract extensions as you demonstrate impact and leadership in nutrition care. Beyond the clinical duties, you’ll join a program renowned for comprehensive, around-the-clock support as you travel with the company, ensuring you’re never navigating complex cases or logistics alone. Separately, New York’s own beauty awaits—the state’s diverse landscapes—from tranquil lake towns to majestic peaks—offering enriching experiences during your downtime and beyond.
Location Benefits
Watertown sits at the confluence of small-town warmth and professional opportunity, delivering an environment where collaboration, patient-centered care, and quality outcomes come first. You’ll be embedded in a supportive community that values evidence-based practice, interdisciplinary teamwork, and ongoing professional development. The assignment is structured to maximize your clinical impact while preserving work–life balance, with reliable scheduling and guaranteed hours that empower you to plan ahead. In addition to Watertown’s appealing pace of life, the program offers the flexibility to engage with assignments at varied locations across the United States, exposing you to diverse patient populations, hospital cultures, and nutrition care challenges. This breadth of experience strengthens clinical judgment, expands your professional network, and opens doors to future leadership roles. You’ll experience the benefits of a travel-friendly framework—shared housing options, streamlined onboarding, and continuous access to support teams—so you can focus on delivering top-tier nutrition care without logistical distractions. For those who relish exploration, New York’s natural and cultural diversity is a bonus—from lake regions to upstate trails, there are ample opportunities to unwind and recharge between shifts.
Role Specifics and Benefits
As a Clinical Registered Dietitian on this multi-week assignment, you’ll translate medical nutrition therapy into practical, patient-centered plans. Key responsibilities include conducting comprehensive nutrition assessments of medical inpatients and outpatients, identifying nutrition risks, and developing, implementing, and adjusting care plans aligned with evidence-based guidelines. You’ll monitor patient progress, adjust energy and nutrient prescriptions, and collaborate closely with physicians, nurses, speech-language pathologists, pharmacists, and social workers to coordinate care. Documentation in electronic health records will reflect nutrition diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes, ensuring continuity of care across shifts and units. Education remains central: you’ll empower patients and families with practical strategies for managing dietary needs, food tolerances, and nutrition-related lifestyle changes.
The role also offers meaningful opportunities for growth within the clinical dietetics specialty. You’ll work alongside seasoned dietitians and care teams, gain exposure to complex medical cases, and contribute to quality improvement projects that optimize nutrition workflows and patient outcomes. Benefits are designed to support you as a traveling professional: a competitive weekly pay range of $1,804–$1,900 reflects 40 guaranteed hours; a sign-on or performance bonus recognizes early impact; housing assistance eases relocation and staying comfortably near your assignment; and extension opportunities allow you to continue building your portfolio of clinical successes with the same supportive employer. Comprehensive 24/7 travel support ensures you’re never alone on the road—whether coordinating clinical needs, resolving scheduling questions, or handling emergencies, a dedicated team is available around the clock. You’ll also have access to continuing education resources, mentorship, and pathways that promote career advancement within the organization, reinforcing a culture that values your contribution and long-term growth.
