Founded in 1921, Straub Benioff Medical Center includes a 159-bed hospital in Honolulu, a network of neighborhood clinics and a visiting specialist program that reaches throughout the state of Hawai'i. With over 200 physicians who are leaders in their fields, Straub provides its patients with diagnoses and treatments for more than 32 different medical specialties, including bone and joint, heart, cancer, endocrinology/diabetes, family medicine, gastroenterology, geriatric medicine, internal medicine, vascular and urology. Straub is home to the Pacific Region's only multidisciplinary burn treatment center. The hospital consistently brings new technologies and innovative medical practices to Hawai'i, such as minimally invasive cardiac surgery and total joint replacement. Our Food and Nutrition Services department provides quality nutritious meals to patients, visitors and staff while educating on the importance of healthy eating habits. We also work with medical staff to ensure accurate diet modifications for patients as needed. The department is responsible for performing a variety of general preparation and food service activities, including tray assembly and delivery, working in the cafeteria, cashiering, ware washing, assisting with pantry functions, nourishment activities and catering. As the Dietitian, you are responsible for approving patient menus and nutritional supplements, providing dietary counseling to patients, family members, and caretakers, documenting nutritional assessments and evaluating patient tolerance to therapeutic diets, as appropriate. In this role, you will collaborate with other hospital services (e.g. medical staff, nursing, pharmacy, and social work services) to plan and implement patient care, as necessary. As the Dietitian, you will maintain pertinent patient data necessary to recommend or modify therapeutic diets, as needed, to meet the nutritional needs of the patient. You will also serve as the primary liaison between patients and the Food and Nutrition Department to promote service excellence.
