Clinical Associate

Busy clinical nutrition practice is looking for a detail-oriented nutritionist/dietitian for a work-from-home client-facing subcontractor position to work directly with clients within our virtual private practice.

Our clientele is 80% US-based and focused heavily on chronic skin conditions along with a secondary focus on gut/GI complaints and autoimmunity. If you’ve been interested in helping those suffering from chronic skin rash conditions, this is a great way!

Your responsibilities include:

• Hosting client meetings via phone/video calls based on their program
• Organizing intake form data into client chart notes 
• Maintaining up-to-date client records with session notes + lab data
• Working directly with your own clients in the practice
• Maintaining timely chat communications with your clients
• Reviewing diet logs to make appropriate suggestions
• Assessing medications for nutrient depletion issues
• Creating protocols for clients’ unique needs and case
• Recommending lifestyle, diet + supplement recommendations based on client needs
• Clear communication with the clinical + front desk team
• Attend live group community calls to offer support

The right candidate must have a firm understanding of…: 

• Optimal + function ranges of standard conventional blood labs
• Clinical stool tests — GI Effects, GI Map, GI 360
• Urine testing — Organix Comprehensive Panel / MycoTox / Organic Acids (Mosiac)
• Using herbs/botanical supplements in practice to build protocols
• Recommending nutrition supplements based on lab testing
• Identifying disordered eating patterns + coaching clients to reintroduce foods
• Motivational interviewing techniques
• Creating protocols beyond just a food/diet-only approach
• Scope of practice for an RD or CNS
• Client privacy

This is a great opportunity for someone who loves supporting clients on their healing journey as well as nerding out on labs and nutritional connections within the body that impact skin health.

To qualify, candidates must have one of the following:

• Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS)
• Master’s degree in Human Nutrition
• Registered Dietitian (RD)

You must have experience working as a nutrition professional as this is not a training position, nor is this a role for someone with a scope of practice as a health coach. 

Within the practice, we rely on certain platforms to support our clients including:

• Practice Better
• Google Drive (Docs, Sheets, etc.)
• Gmail
• Voxer
• Asana
• Dropbox

It is essential that you have a working understanding of these platforms or are a quick study.

If you are the right fit for this position, you should be self-starting, self-motivated, detail-oriented, dependable, organized, upbeat, professional, empathetic, and knowledgeable. 

You would be a good fit if you…

• hate spelling and grammar mistakes. 
• can follow directions.
• are punctual and always thinking two steps ahead. 
• clearly communicate issues and concerns in a timely fashion so that our focus can be on supporting clients and their health.
• are focused on problem-solving + having empathy for the clients.
• aren’t interested in marketing dealing with the business end of running your own practice.
