Overview

The Food & Nutrition Services (FNS) Department at Dartmouth-Hitchcock encompasses Patient Food Services, Clinical Nutrition, and Dining Services. FNS aims to provide a nutritional environment which supports a population-level approach to a healthy diet and aligns with the D-H commitment to improve the health and wellness of our patients, employees, and community and create a sustainable health system.

The Dietetic Aides work in the Diet Office, an extension of Patient Food Services. Our Dietetic Aides work with patients and care providers to select meal choices for admitted patients. They do this by receiving calls from patients in the call center and by going to patient rooms to help patients select their menu items. The Diet Office works closely with the other employees of Patient Food Services to ensure all patients receive their meals correctly and in a timely manner. We value a culture of teamwork, communication, collaboration, and interdisciplinary involvement.

This is a part-time, 16-hour per week position with competitive rates starting at $17/hr. Evening and weekend shifts receive a shift differential. You must be at least 16 years of age to apply for this position.
