Filadelfia seeks clinical dietitian

Are you a clinical dietitian – and do you want to make a real difference?

When diet becomes part of the treatment of epilepsy, the clinical dietitian's professional expertise takes on a crucial significance for patients' treatment course and quality of life. At Epilepsy Hospital Filadelfia you have the opportunity to put your professional expertise into play and at the same time contribute to the development of a highly specialized field.

Epilepsy Hospital Filadelfia is seeking a clinical dietitian for the pediatric and adult areas. As Denmark's only specialized hospital for patients with epilepsy, we work purposefully to create safe, coherent and meaningful paths for both patients and their families.

Who are you?

You are trained as a clinical dietitian and are motivated by a broader professional role than traditional clinical work. You thrive being close to the patients, view the family as a central partner in collaboration and have a holistic view of the individual person.

We imagine that you

• Thrive in a multidisciplinary environment and collaborate closely with doctors, nurses, therapists, psychologists and secretaries
• Have an interest in epilepsy, neurology and neurodevelopment
• Are ambitious and want to leave your mark on the field
• Have the courage to develop the diet-based epilepsy treatment, including developing and testing new diet therapies
• Are structured and detail-oriented – diet calculation and individual plans are an important part of the work
• Have a positive approach and thrive with many balls in the air

Your main tasks will include

• Diet guidance and sparring regarding diet treatment for both adults and children and their families – especially ketogenic diet
• Preparation and calculation of individual diet plans
• Education and development of materials for both patients and professionals
• Guidance in obesity and nutrition therapy

You don't need to know everything in advance – of course we provide thorough training in the ketogenic diet. We expect that you have experience as a dietitian.

Who are we?

You will become part of a highly specialized department with a clear common mission

We create safe and targeted pathways for children and adults with epilepsy – and support their families all the way.

You will join our keto-team together with doctors, dietitians, nurses and occupational therapists. The team meets weekly and participates in cross-organizational conferences once a month.
