What Is a Dietitian?

A dietitian is a qualified healthcare professional who specialises in using nutrition and dietary guidance to support health, recovery, and disease management. Unlike nutritionists, dietitians are regulated by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and can work within clinical environments, prescribing tailored nutritional care plans based on individual needs.

In the UK, dietitians work across hospitals, GP practices, care homes, public health initiatives, sports teams, and even within research or media. Their work is not only reactive to illness, but also preventative, often focused on promoting healthy eating habits to reduce the risk of long-term conditions.

Key responsibilities may include:

  • Carrying out nutritional assessments

  • Designing meal plans and therapeutic diets

  • Monitoring patient progress and adapting interventions

  • Collaborating with doctors, nurses, and speech therapists

  • Delivering group education sessions or 1:1 counselling

  • Contributing to community-based food and health programmes
