Primary Care Registered Dietitian

Yakima Valley Farm Workers Clinic Yakima, WA (Onsite) Full-Time
Join our team as a Primary Care Registered Dietitian and be part of a healthcare organization that believes in making a difference beyond medical care! At Yakima Valley Farm Workers Clinic, we value inclusivity, and we are more than just a job - we are a community committed to the well-being of our migrant farmworkers.

In our medical clinics, Registered Dietitian Nutritionists work alongside medical and mental health providers to address the nutritional needs of primary care patients. Registered Dietitian Nutritionists at primary care sites counsel patients of all ages on nutrition-related conditions (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, weight management, digestive issues, food allergies) and provide preventative education (Well Child Checks, prenatal counseling, healthy families), addressing general nutrition questions and concerns.

The Primary Care Nutrition Services model utilizes Motivational Interviewing, and nutrition interventions are tailored to meet the individual's lifestyle and support their health goals in a judgment-free, sensitive, and supportive environment. Our Primary Care RDNs are readily accessible in our clinics for warm handoffs from providers. They are proactive in identifying patients to drop in through reports and registries. Same-day access is available at no cost to any patient who has established care at our clinics.
