What's great about being a Consultant Dietitian?
"My favorite thing about being a consultant is the opportunity to mentor dietary managers. I also enjoy the flexibility of my time." - Consultant Dietitian with Brummit & Associates since 2008.
"I enjoy seeing the residents every month and getting to know them on a personal level. It helps me know how to best support their nutritional needs and preferences. I also don't get called in to cover kitchen shifts!" - Consultant Dietitian with Brummit & Associates since 2018
"I really like the freedom to schedule my facilities. I like developing relationships with and working with facilities to improve their outcomes during state surveys." - Consultant Dietitian with Brummit & Associates since 2001
"The best part of consulting is the flexibility and being able to set my own schedule - very accommodating to my kids' schedule!" - Consultant Dietitian with Brummit & Associates since 2015
"I like being a consultant because nutrition is so important for geriatric and disability health, but it's frequently pushed aside due to medicine being prioritized. We get to be their advocate when they are unable to be their own, and we support the kitchen staff when they express dietary concerns for the residents.
