Dietetic Internship

In life, many people participate in various daily events and activities that help them enjoy being who they are. People may enjoy getting together with friends, going to the mall, going to an amusement park or simply finding relaxation in nature. However, a big part of everyone’s life is of course eating and many people find pleasure in doing so. Eating is a very enjoyable and delectable must for everyone but should be done so, like everything in life, in a smart and intelligent way. Being smart and perceptive when eating is a large part of nutrition.

I grew up with my mom and three younger sisters in the very small rural community of Anderson in Northern California. Coming from a large family headed by a single mother, I always knew that I'd have to pay for school on my own. That's why I am so grateful for receiving this culinary scholarship. I'll be able to take out far fewer loans and really focus on my education at OCCI, rather than worry about how I'm going to pay for it.

I am seeking a dietetic internship at California State University Fresno, to continue my journey in dietetics. At first, obtaining a college education meant more than just assuring a better future but breaking the chain in a long line of poverty and illiteracy. As my mother was a single parent and immigrant to the United States with less than a first grade education, her desire to have a better life for me has always been present. Being a first generation Mexican-American and the first in my family to graduate college, I consider myself privileged to have the opportunities my parents never had. Although, I did not know it at the time, my journey in dietetics started after high school. I was fortunate at such a young age to work in a convalescent home as a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA). While caring for the residents, I discovered an innate need to care for others. I gained as much from them as they did from me. As a CNA, I

Currently, I have been working as a community nutritionist for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) at Kapiolani Medical Center for Women and Children for over a year and half.

1) The background information on a possible referral by a physician to a Registered Dietitian might give us an insight on the stage of behavioral modification stage of the patient. If the patient was referred to a Registered Dietitian (RD) by a physician, and did not seek the RD on their own free will, this might indicate that the patient was either given no choice to visit the RD or is willing to follow the physician's recommendations. A study conducted on clinician referrals services shows that the referral services had a modest impact on the progress of the patient.1,2

Montclair State University and I posses a common vision. I, like MSU believe in the power of thinking critically and acting ethically in every possible aspect of my life. I have chosen to study Nutrition at Montclair because I want to help people make educated lifestyle choices and develop healthy habits, which has always been a dream of mine. Because I intend to pursue a career in dietetics, I see Montclair State University as an ideal place for me. Offering impressive coursework and programs that will quench my thirst for knowledge, this university will prepare me for a dietetic internship and provide me the confidence of knowing that I would be getting an excellent education in nutrition at a top school with consistently high ratings.

A crucial conversation is a conversation between a two or more people where the results from such conversation will impact one’s life (Patterson). Registered Dietitian A (RD A) is a successful dietitian who is well known throughout sports nutrition. RD A served as the head dietitians for a large university for many years. Over the last couple of years, RD A’s views and beliefs caused conflict and controversy between athletic head coaches and the nutrition department. The conflict between RD A and the coaches was not only degrading their relationship but creating poor relations amongst the rest of the nutrition department including student interns and other full-time dietitians midst the entire athletic department. Even though RD A developed

When you are dieting you do not want to give up all the goodies that you love and you do not have to. There are many diets out there that can be considered a "menus diet" because they give you a menu for each and every day so that you do not stray from the plan. The problem is that when you have a set menu like this it can be boring and most people find these types of diets to be very difficult to stick to. Here is how you can modify this type of menus diet and still stick with it completely.

Being a Nutritionist is no easy feat. You have to work hard to acquire the proper credentials as well as having an abundance of knowledge based on health issues and food science. It is also important to build people skills and understand the health concerns of every client.

The 3 Week Diet reviews make you understand that the body does not stock protein as it does with carbohydrates and fat. The protein you consume will either be used to fix and reconstruct or it will be used to eliminate the waste from your body, but at any cost, it will not be stored as fat. After three hours, the amino acids taken from your last protein-based meal are no longer in your bloodstream. At this point, your body will start to look for the required amino acids from your lean body mass. Consuming every three hours will prevent this from occurrence. Consuming often guarantees that your lean body mass continues intact, and that your muscles are not being crashed, and they may be used for energy. The additional

To become a registered dietician, one must acquire a bachelor’s degree in a nutrition-related field, complete a one-year internship, and pass a certification exam. I am currently planning to study dietetics at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University for four years and then the following year complete my internship. I chose to study at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University because of their reputable dietetics program. They earn this strong reputation by having a high placement rate for internships, as well as, a high success rate for the certification exam. They also offer a numerous amount of clubs related to health, nutrition, and wellness, which I am eager to

My journey to become a registered dietitian has been longer and maybe more complex than the average college students. As a first-generation college student I was faced with many challenges that to this day have shaped me in a unique way as a dietitian. During this year of my internship, I want to be able to reflect on my own growth, strengths and weaknesses and be open to feedback to improve as a dietitian.

The science related career that I chose was a dietitian. The main parts of this job are to help and tell people about healthy eating and living. Some of the other tasks of a dietitian are, giving people advice about healthy eating, making presentations, doing reports, making sure that people can accept their illnesses, explain health nutrition to the public, helping people with dietary changes and knowing all the key health needs. Dietitians are trained health care professionals. They have to know how to help people change their eating habits to help people with sometimes life threatening illnesses. A dietitian researches new ways to improve health care and can prepare future dietitians for their jobs.
