What are the responsibilities and job description for the Nutrition Ambassador/Diet Aide position at Integrated Support Solutions, Inc.?
We would like to invite you to consider becoming a part of an organization that is dedicated to changing the way that nutrition, culinary arts, environment, and leadership are delivered in the clinical setting.
Integrated Support Solutions Inc. (We call ourselves ISSI) exists for the sole purpose of helping others succeed. We contract with hospitals, long-term care and rehab facilities to elevate the patient experience - and we do so by elevating you in your essential profession! Both our chefs and dietitians are elite food and nutrition experts that work to create a fine-dining approach in the hospital setting. We believe that a collaboration must exist between both the medical regimen of a patient and also what they are provided to eat in order to achieve optimal healing. This is what we believe true HEALTHcare is really about!
We are looking for unique individuals to represent our culture of service. We offer free or reduced-cost meals depending on location, tuition reimbursement, flexible scheduling, and opportunities for advancement.
One step above being a server (and two steps below in the level of stress) are our gatekeepers to the patient experience – our Ambassadors. Our patients are our guests and we are the front line of their eating experience. Nutrition Ambassadors guide the patient to both their healthful and palatable meal dining decisions. They reassure the patients that, although they may be in a situation where their eating requires more mindfulness, the experience will eventually guide them to advancing their health through food for the brighter future to come.
