IWK Health is a respected academic health sciences centre located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, providing tertiary and primary care for two million children, youth, adults and families each year across the Atlantic region. We have a team of approximately 4000 employees, physicians, volunteers and learners at sites across Nova Scotia. People build careers with IWK Health with our focus on training and mentorship opportunities. We recognize each other's talent and celebrate our successes. We collaborate in modern facilities or virtually from home, align our work to our values, and enjoy access to enhanced benefits and wellness programs. We are proud to support our patients, families and communities and are grateful for the generous donor support we receive.
Promoting an anti:racist environment, and calling out discrimination as we work and provide care, is important to us. We are located in Mi'kma'ki, the unceded and ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people. Working in Mi'kma'ki and providing care to those across Atlantic Canada is a shared privilege with the original inhabitants who have lived here for many thousands of years prior to colonization. There are 13 First Nation communities across Nova Scotia, and more than 50 historic African Nova Scotian communities who also have a long, deep, and complex history dating back over 400 years. We have the highest percentage of people with disabilities in the country. Nova Scotia has the highest proportions of transgender and non:binary people than any other province or territory in the country. We are active in our work to eliminate discrimination, but have more work to do to build that trust, acknowledge our biases and reduce the barriers our diverse communities face. We want IWK Health to be a safe and supportive space of equity and belonging in the care we provide and the employment we offer. We welcome all interested persons who self:identify as Indigenous, Black/African Nova Scotians, Persons of Colour, Immigrants/Newcomers, Persons with Disabilities, 2SLGBTQIA+ to support our goal for our workforce to be representative of the patients, families, and communities that we care for at all job levels.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Clinical Manager, Community Mental Health and Addictions, the Dietitian will be a key member of the interdisciplinary team, participating in assessments, providing dietetic services to patients and families and consulting with other health professionals, both internal and external to the IWK. The Dietitian must have a specialized knowledge and experience level working with youth presenting with eating disorders (in inpatient and outpatient settings) and be able to assess and manage the risk associated with eating disorders. The Dietitian must have an interest in helping these youth through the stabilization phase of their illness and be familiar with treatment interventions including: Emotion Focused Therapy, Family Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.
In collaboration with the other members of the team, the Dietitian will also be responsible to provide consultation and support to in:patient, day treatment and CMHA services. Further, the Dietitian will be expected to help support and participate in structured training environments where clinical trainees are mentored and supervised.
