Baltimore, United States Edenbridge Health Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Role: Registered Dietitian

Organization: Edenbridge PACE West Baltimore

Location: West Baltimore

Start Date: May 2024

Status: Full-time

Mission:  To allow frail elderly people to age in the location of their choosing and continue to lead
connected, meaningful lives

The Registered Dietitian role offers a unique opportunity at a new PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program in West Baltimore within the framework of a supportive, innovative, and expert leadership team and company. Together with our coalition of strong partners within the community, the Registered Dietitian will help our team to have a transformative impact on a particularly under-served community in West Baltimore.

Seven core principles drive our approach to care. These include:  

  1. Create and Sustain Meaningful Lives: Our model aims to help elders create and sustain meaningful lives — from social relationships, spirituality, cultural life, work, or service. We support elders with cognitive and physical disability to sustain meaning in their daily lives. We form close community partnerships to help elders engage outside our centers.
  2. Respect the Right to Independence:  Edenbridge aims always to follow our participants’ wishes. Wherever possible, participants maintain control over all decisions — from medical procedures to what to eat for dinner.
  3. Pay Attention to What Is Working Well:  Our goal is to multiply the days each participant is glad to be alive. We encourage participants’ positive experiences of daily life, supporting the things that matter most to them.
  4. Provide the Right Amount of Medical Care:  Elders often have many diagnoses, medications and specialists, involving complex care decisions. We help our participants understand their choices. We deliver thoughtful, appropriate and personalized care, doing what our participants want — nothing more and nothing less.
  5. Guide All the Care Provided:  We always follow and guide our participants’ care — in their homes, at our center, in the hospital, and everywhere.
  6. Live with Our Communities, Not Just in Them:  We work in communities where aging in place is valued and integrated care is a shared mission. We build deep relationships with community organizations (see video) beginning long before we open our doors. We aim to reach beyond the walls of the center to bring community members in and participants out for person-to-person connection.
  7. Employ Technology Thoughtfully, Not Aggressively:  We use technology because it can enrich the lives of participants, improving care and connecting family members with their loved ones and their care providers. But we use technology only to complement — never replace — direct human interaction.

To help us achieve this mission, we are looking for an experienced Registered Dietitian who will assess the nutritional status and needs of participants of the program. 

Main Responsibilities:

  • Works independently to assess the nutritional status and needs of participants of the program
  • Member of the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) and participates in the assessment and review process of participants in determining their nutritional needs
  • Counsels participants and their families in order to provide nutritional and diet information relating to known medical conditions
  • Reviews and interprets physician prescribed diets, calculates special diets, makes recommendations for nutritional care plans
  • Confers with physicians and nursing personnel to clarify orders, make recommendations for appropriate dietary treatments, and general exchanging of information and evaluates participant’s response to diet therapy
  • Works and collaborates with the participant and the family as well as all members of the interdisciplinary team in developing the participants’ plan of care
  • Evaluates participant outcomes and or progress toward achieving the objectives/goals of the care plan and communicates this information among other members of the IDT
  • Directs and supervises the participant luncheon meal ensuring that participants are fed proper meals and those that need close monitoring or supervision during meal time are adequately cared for
  • Monitors and maintains accurate records of food and refrigerator temperatures to maintain the safety standards of the FDA
  • Supervises the dispensing of frozen meals, bag lunches, or nutritional supplements to the transportation department for home delivery 
  • Approves and revises all cycle menus, recipes and foods brought to Skyland PACE
  • Maintains and promotes infection control practices in the kitchen area and holds staff members accountable to these practices
