We are in need of a Spanish-speaking diabetes educator at Lutheran hospital to support our current Endocrinology office.

  • Is comfortable conducting in person visits, virtual visits and group education.  

  • Is skilled in addressing patient barriers and providing empathetic support for behavior change.

At Cleveland Clinic, we know what matters most. That's why we treat our caregivers as if they are our own family, and we are always creating ways to be there for you. Here, you'll find that we offer: resources to learn and grow, a fulfilling career for everyone, and comprehensive benefits that invest in your health, your physical and mental well-being and your future. When you join Cleveland Clinic, you'll be part of a supportive caregiver family that will be united in shared values and purpose to fulfill our promise of being the best place to receive care and the best place to work in healthcare.
