Job Description

Allara is a first-of-its-kind virtual care platform bridging the care divide for millions of women diagnosed with chronic health conditions.

• Collaborate with NPs and MDs involved in the medical management of your patients
• Complete required training, and adhere to company guidelines and policies
• Commit to a minimum of 20 hours per week conducting consults, answering patient questions, and providing nutrition and wellness guidance as necessary

Qualifications

• Registered Dietitian with current certification from the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR)
• 1-year experience treating patients with complex women's health conditions strongly desired
• Training in mindful eating modalities, such as Intuitive Eating
• Flexibility to hold space for safe patient exploration of weight change, while educating patients on the potential effects of restriction

• Empowers patients with tools and knowledge to self-manage care, and not only learn what to eat, but how to eat
• Practice involving other areas of wellness, such as sleep and movement
• Continuous awareness of literature to provide up-to-date and evidence-based care
• Excellent organizational, time management, and written and verbal communication skills with an emphasis on clarity and compassion for both patients and colleagues
• Experience with electronic health records, Zoom, Slack, and Google Drive tools
• Friendly and genuine "webside manner" and interpersonal skills
• Tech-savviness in a variety of platforms including the ability to quickly learn new technology
