Volunteer Dietitian Needed
increased life expectancy and healthy living?

St. Petersburg Free Clinic needs a  Dietitian/Nutritionist
volunteer for 1-on-1 patient counseling. You determine your
schedule. We require that the volunteer have at least a
bachelor's degree in dietetics, foods and nutrition, food
service systems management or a related area; licensure,
certification or registration for the State of Florida and three or
more years experience in nutrition consulting.

Nature of the volunteer work:

  • teach patients with high blood pressure how to use less
    salt when preparing meals
  • create diets reduced in fat and sugar for overweight
    patients
  • discuss how to shop smart for a given disease process
    such as lowering cholesterol, renal problems, or critically
    ill patients
  • evaluate individual needs, develop nutritional care plans
    and instruct individuals and their families
  • perform nutrition screenings and offer advice on diet-
    related concerns such as weight loss and cholesterol
    reduction
  • provide expertise in sanitation, safety procedures, menu
    development, budgeting and planning

Special Events, at 727-821-1200 ext. 114 or email her at
