Answer to Question 1
Multiskilling, or being cross-trained, occurs when the community nutritionist performs more than one function, often in more than one discipline. The multiskilled community nutritionist knows how to conduct a needs assessment and provide dietary guidance as well as how to design and conduct a survey, use the Internet for marketing health messages, and obtain funding to support a program's promotional plan.
Answer to Question 2
The minimum educational requirements for a community nutritionist include a bachelor's degree in community nutrition, foods and nutrition, or dietetics from an accredited college or university. Most community nutrition positions require the individual to be a registered and licensed dietitian. Community nutritionists practice in schools, worksites, cooperative extension agencies, universities, colleges, medical schools, voluntary and nonprofit health organizations, public health departments, home healthcare agencies, day care centers, residential facilities, fitness centers, and many other settings. Roles and responsibilities are numerous and include managing nutrition care interventions for diverse population groups across the life span; participating in nutrition surveillance and monitoring of communities; developing and implementing community-based food and nutrition programs; conducting outcome assessment and evaluation of community-based food and nutrition programs; and participating in screening activities.
