Make a difference through nutrition and compassionate care.

McGregor PACE is an innovative, community-based Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) dedicated to helping older adults remain healthy, independent, and connected to their communities.

We’re looking for an energetic and compassionate Dietetic Technician / Nutrition Associate to join our Nutrition Services team at our East Cleveland location. This is an opportunity to build meaningful relationships with older adults while playing an important role in their nutrition, health, and overall well-being.

You’ll work closely with a Registered Dietitian and an interdisciplinary care team to support the nutritional needs of PACE participants. Under the supervision of the Registered Dietitian, you’ll provide nutrition screening, follow-up, education, care coordination, and other nutrition services that help participants achieve their health and quality-of-life goals.

As a Dietetic Technician or Nutrition Associate, you’ll have a varied role that combines nutrition services, program participant support, care coordination, and community resources.

We welcome candidates who meet either of the following education/credential pathways:

• Dietetic Technician, Registered (DTR or NDTR) who holds an Associate’s degree and has completed an ACEND-accredited Dietetic Technician program; or

• Minimum of one year of experience working with older adults or a frail/medically complex population required.
• Experience working in a community-based program or interdisciplinary care setting preferred.
• Current Ohio driver’s license and reliable transportation required.
