Nutritional /Dietician
A clinical dietician is often at the center of the interactions between doctor, patient, and the staff of the facility in which care is administered. A delicate balance sometimes exists between what a doctor recommends and a patient’s ability to implement the nutrition program. Factors such as a patient’s income, level of education, psychological and physical state, living conditions, family assistance, and ability to follow the program must be considered. Sometimes the clinical dietician must provide a great deal of patient contact, counseling, and education to achieve that balance.  (https://www.nutritioned.org/clinical-dietitian.html)
