Why use a dietitian staffing company?

Gentleman calling a dietitian staffing company

Hiring in general is no easy task, and when you add on the requirements of hiring for a very specific skill set in a specific location, the challenge only compounds. If only there was a way to make dietitian staffing simple. Ah, but there is! Making your next dietitian hire through Dietitians On Demand will ensure flexibility, speed, and access to top talent with just one call.

Dietitian staffing is flexible

Do you need a dietitian for just a couple of weeks or months? For exactly 22.5 hours per week? To cover a temporary increase in census? Whatever your request is, Dietitians On Demand can cater to your needs. Since we are familiar with short-term coverage requests, our candidate pool is bursting with employees who want a temporary, flexible position.

This is great news for a hiring manager! Instead of going through all the steps required to make a hire, tasks are all delegated to Dietitians On Demand. Posting the job, recruiting, interviewing, reference checks, payroll — check them off with one call. Now, that’s an efficient use of time.

Additionally, Dietitians On Demand handles all the responsibilities associated with a temporary hire. Think workers’ compensation, liability insurance, taxes — your facility and HR department don’t need to manage any of these items since the dietitian is our employee.

Dietitian staffing is fast

When a hospital or nursing home is in a pinch because state surveyors or The Joint Commission are expected any day, speed is essential.

Oftentimes, Dietitians On Demand can place a registered dietitian on-site days or even weeks sooner than if that dietitian were hired directly by the facility. We have a huge network of dietitians, many of whom with onboarding and screening requirements completed.

If we don’t have someone available immediately, rest assured that we have a nationwide presence and can cast a wide net to find your perfect candidate.

Consider a traveling dietitian as well! A travel dietitian can be ready to work anywhere in the country within just a few days.

Finding the best dietitians available

From hospitality workers to technicians, nurses and even administrative office staff, healthcare hiring managers cover an array of positions. When it comes to hiring a registered dietitian, wouldn’t the best-case scenario be working with someone who knows if a dietitian is qualified for the job?

Dietitians On Demand specializes in hiring registered dietitians (that’s all!). When you’re working with us, you’re aligned with experts in the nutrition field. We’ve honed our recruiting, interviewing, and screening techniques to know if a dietitian is right for a client.

Another added perk — a facility can try out a dietitian for a short assignment before committing to a full-time hire. Should a facility decide the “temporary” dietitian is a great fit, it’s easy and risk free to make them an employee of the facility.
