Overview
Are you looking to develop your dietetic skills working with adults with a range of conditions in the community setting? This post is based within the Community Nutrition and Dietetic team in Scunthorpe and is the ideal place to continue to develop your dietetic career.
You will be an experienced specialist autonomous practitioner who acts within your professional boundaries, carrying a defined caseload of patients and offering specialist dietary advice.
