Location Benefits:
Windsor, Vermont sits in a region famed for its historic charm, scenic river views, and a strong sense of community. Practicing here offers a balanced lifestyle where you can deliver high‑quality nutrition care while enjoying the state’s four distinct seasons, outdoor recreation, and easy access to broader New England experiences. Whether you’re strolling downtown, visiting nearby fall foliage vistas, or savoring a wintertime snowshoe through quiet landscapes, Windsor provides a grounded base for professional focus and personal renewal. The role also presents the possibility of working across multiple U.S. locations, expanding your professional horizons as you collaborate with diverse teams, adapt to varying patient populations, and broaden your clinical repertoire. Vermont’s healthcare environment emphasizes prevention, evidence‑based practice, and interdisciplinary coordination, offering robust resources, mentorship opportunities, and pathways to advance within hospital systems and community programs. Beyond the role itself, you’ll have the chance to explore Vermont’s celebrated beauty—from verdant valleys to crisp mountain air—while staying rooted in a community that values compassionate care and professional integrity.

Role Specifics and Benefits:
As a Clinical Dietitian in Clinical Nutrition, you will perform comprehensive nutrition assessments, interpret diagnoses, and craft individualized care plans that align with medical nutrition therapy standards. Your responsibilities will include reconciling dietary restrictions with medical treatment, implementing enteral and parenteral nutrition strategies when appropriate, and counseling patients and families to support adherence and sustainable behavior change. You’ll monitor patient progress, adjust plans based on labs and clinical status, document outcomes in the electronic health record, and collaborate closely with physicians, nurses, speech‑language pathologists, pharmacists, and social workers to ensure cohesive, patient‑centered care. You’ll contribute to quality improvement initiatives, refine food service operations, and participate in education for staff and caregivers, all while upholding regulatory guidelines and best practices in nutrition therapy. The position offers a compelling path for professional growth within the dietitian specialty, including opportunities to expand into supervision, program development, or advanced nutrition support.

Compensation and perks are designed to recognize your expertise. You’ll receive a competitive weekly pay range of $2,005–$2,091 for this travel‑style assignment, with flexible durations stated in weeks and the potential for extensions based on performance and need.

The organization emphasizes a robust support system for travelers, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated travel support team, ready to resolve scheduling, housing, credentialing, or clinical questions anytime you need. While you’ll work autonomously in clinical responsibilities, you’ll also have access to a broad network of colleagues for case discussions, continuing education, and collaborative problem‑solving. The role benefits from a comprehensive onboarding process, access to clinical libraries, and state‑of‑the‑art nutrition calculators and software to streamline assessment, planning, and documentation.
