1 week ago


Oakland, United States La Clinica de la Raza Full time

Nutritionist Aide

Who we are: La Clínica de La Raza is a community-based health center committed to providing culturally appropriate, high-quality, and accessible health care to the diverse communities of the San Francisco Bay Area. We have spent over 40 years advocating for and creating a health-home for the many that have been denied access to care. As health care activists, we are dedicated to ensuring that individuals who do not have healthcare coverage receive the same quality healthcare as those who do. From our genesis as a community health center in 1971, we understood that we cannot heal our communities without also addressing the economic and social factors that affect health. Many times, this requires that we go outside and provide services in other settings that link individuals to our health center for preventive and primary care. Over 90,000 individuals come to La Clínica because it is a welcoming place that addresses the whole person, coordinating and connecting them to a broad network of services to improve and maintain their health and well-being. While we are still known for our activism and spirit of social justice, we are also proud to have grown into a sophisticated provider of primary health care services with 35 sites across Alameda, Contra Costa and Solano counties.

Who you are: Under general direction, the individual in this position is responsible for conducting nutrition screening, assessment and counseling, as well as implementing nutrition care plans and breastfeeding support for our patients.

Major Areas of Responsibility include but are not limited to:

* Conducts nutrition screening, assessment and counseling, and implements nutrition care plans for all but high-risk patients.
* Assures appropriate records are updated (i.e. records nutrition assessment dates, follows-up on nutrition assessment appointments with Nutritionist II, obtains appropriate signatures on re-interview forms during appointments)
* Maintains documentation by charting dietary intake and recording recommendation given to clients in family folders and medical records.
* Teaches group classes.
* Assists with the development translation and evaluation of culturally relevant nutrition education materials.
* Attends weekly staff meetings and other workshops as required.
* Other duties as assigned by WIC supervisor.

Minimum Job Requirements

* Must hold a current BLS (Basic Life Support) Certificate. You will have 30-day grace period to obtain your certificate from the date of hire.
* Knowledge of contemporary principles and practices of nutrition; interpretation and implementation of nutrition guidelines for infant, children, and pregnant, and breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding women, and other patients.
* Knowledge of nutritional value of foods; meal planning and preparation that is culturally appropriate; food safety.
* Knowledge of principles, methods, and materials used in nutrition counseling, education, and screening.
* Knowledge of Motivational Interviewing techniques preferred.
* Ability to work independently as well as collectively on projects.
* Strong interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills.
* Bilingual/Spanish required.
