Are you a high-acuity RD who thrives in a fast-paced clinical environment? We are looking for a skilled Travel Registered Dietitian to join our interdisciplinary team in Spokane. This role offers the perfect blend of complex clinical challenges and a supportive, "home-like" team culture.

With the stunning North Idaho wilderness just minutes away and a leadership team that prioritizes workload balance, this is an ideal contract for a traveler looking to make a real impact.

The Role: Clinical Excellence at Pace

You will be responsible for managing a high-volume workload of 12–15 patients per day. This is a "hit the ground running" position for an RD who excels in critical thinking and complex medical nutrition therapy.

Key Responsibilities:

• High-Acuity Care: Diagnose and treat malnutrition and manage complex nutrition support, including TPN (3-in-1 compounding) and enteral feeds.
• Efficiency in Documentation: Utilize EPIC with smart phrases and auto-populating templates to maintain a 20–30 minute window per patient assessment.
• Collaborative Practice: Participate in daily morning huddles to redistribute workloads and ensure the team functions like a well-oiled machine.
• Comprehensive Assessment: Collect and analyze lab values, anthropometrics, and medical history to develop evidence-based care plans.
• Outpatient Support: Depending on the clinic, provide individual consultations for chronic conditions (DM, CHF, obesity) or lead group education classes.

Schedule & Flexibility

We value work-life balance and provide advanced scheduling so you can explore the Pacific Northwest.

• Shift: 7:30 AM – 4:00 PM or 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM.
• Rotation: Rotating every 3rd weekend.
• Planning: Schedules are posted 4–6 weeks in advance.
• Balance: Flexible weekdays off during weekend rotations (guaranteed no more than 8 consecutive workdays).

Requirements & Qualifications

• Credentials: Registered Dietitian (RD) certification through the CDR.
• Licensure: Washington State Certified Dietitian license (must be active or obtainable before start).
• Experience: Recent Acute Care experience is required. You must be proficient in TPN, tube feeding, and high-acuity malnutrition assessments.
• Tech Savvy: Proficiency in EPIC EMR is highly preferred.
• Certifications: CNSC is a plus, but not required.
