Stirling, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

We are looking for an enthusiastic dietitian to join our growing team in NHS Forth Valley (FV). This post is suitable for a newly qualified dietitian or a dietitian looking to gain further experience in general clinical dietetics.

This post would allow excellent general dietetic experience working in the Community setting working across a variety of locations such as Community Hospitals, Care Homes, domiciliary visits and clinics. Much of the work in this post is nutritional support, including enteral feeding, and offers the potential for experience in different clinical areas and specialities e.g. diabetes, renal, acute. This post is supported and supervised by band 6 and band 7 dietitians and will be based in Stirling Community Hospital with the potential for some cross site and remote working.

The Forth Valley clinical dietetic team is a friendly and proactive team providing inpatient and outpatient services within Forth Valley Royal Hospital, 4 Community Hospitals and within Community Services. This post will be part of a team of 33 dietitians providing a wide variety of clinical specialities e.g. critical care, renal, stroke, paediatrics, diabetes, IBS, home enteral feeding along with 5 dietetic assistants and an administrative team. All team members are expected to actively contribute to departmental activities e.g. student training, department meetings and when necessary provide some cover to other parts of the service, including the department duty service.

NHS Forth Valley is centrally located in Scotland with good transport links, easy access to major cities and spectacular countryside.

We love it when people contact us to discuss advertised posts.
