Acute care hospital/ICU experience. Teaching hospital and academic center (interdisciplinary teams, cutting edge research, evidence-based development, opportunities to participate and shape protocols and programs as interested). Strong alignment with health equity and access to care as it is far reaching (33-county catchment area) as the #1 hospital in Sacramento by U.S. News and World Report for 14 consecutive years. There is a large focus and many initiatives on health equity that is really a standout for UCDH. What makes UCDH exceptional is our culture. Dietitians here tend to have a strong voice and more meaningful impact across a large and diverse patient population. The culture is one of the most important and amazing parts of working here and it is unlike any other organization I have worked for. The multidisciplinary teams are amazing here.

Experience - 1-3 years of experience required depending on unit. Parking cost not included in rate. Modules are non billable. The average completion time is 20 to 30 hours. Recruiters must account for these hours in their margin. Modules are assigned once the candidate claims their UC Davis account and must be completed prior to the start date. Exceptions may be granted only under specific circumstances and should not be expected. Failure to complete modules by the assigned due date will result in a start date push and may result in cancellation. Modules are facility reported; however, the traveler must document time spent completing them on a paper timecard.
