Working as a dietitian, you will plan and supervise the nutritional programs of your patients. Dietitians can help prevent or treat certain illnesses by the types and amounts of food they “prescribe” to patients. You can specialize as a clinical, community, management, or consultant dietitian. Clinical dietitians develop healthy nutrition programs for hospitalized patients and work with doctors and nurses to ensure the optimal menus are provided. Community dietitians work in public health clinics to promote well-being in their specific area. Management dietitians plan meals for companies, schools, and other large organizations, while consultant dietitians typically work on a contract basis for private practices to perform nutritional screenings on a more personal level.
