Serendipitous that occurs in my last set of DI rotations that are ED focused, and that this is also during my capstone survey collection directly related to ED, ADHD, and evidence based practice. 😌

It is hard to believe that 21 weeks have passed since my last internship post! 🙃
I have spent my time since then at FNCE in Nashville, OSU (GO BUCKS!) Sports Nutrition, Auglaize Co. WIC, St. Rita's Medical Center for clinical rotation, The Food Store in Bluffton for FSM, and last week I started my eating disorder focused rotation at Aster Springs - Toledo and Divergent Dietitian! 🤠 🏈 👩‍🍼 🏥 🛒 🍽️
Every rotation has kept me interested, hungry, and thankful for the wide range of positions an RD can hold. The preceptors, the community, the patients, the teams, have been instrumental in my growth as a dietitian student! 🫶
It is wild to believe there are only 10 more weeks.... 🏁

6 weeks down 31 to go! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These first 6 weeks of my graduate program and internship have flown by! 🚀
My first 4 weeks were spent at an outpatient care clinic and in outpatient oncology. I am currently half way through my renal care rotation at a dialysis center. 🥑🥕📋🩸🧫
I cannot begin to express the joy these rotations have brought me! Deciding to return to college at this time in my life and obtain not only a bachelor’s degree but a masters degree and a nearly 1200 hour internship has been something I’ve questioned since day one. Not because I didn’t want it… because I definitely want it, but because it is HARD and the sacrifices far reaching. BUT these rotations, the preceptors, the professors, my fellow cohort dietitians to be, the patients, and the in person experience has proven to me I made the right decision and I am right where I belong! 💚💙

This week is Eating Disorders Awareness week, an area of nutrition and dietetics that I am highly passionate about. Eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors are a relavent topic and impact many lives. Eating disorders and disordered eating can effect all genders, a vast range of ages, and does not discriminate between demographic or cultures. There is so much more for me to learn in this area of nutrition and dietetics and I am excited to announce I will have the opportunity to do so in my Masters Program. I find it serendipitous that today I received my acceptance into the RDN Integrated Master of Nutrition and Dietetics Program at Bluffton University, a program that offers a designated Eating Disorder Path. I am looking forward to this next adventure in my journey towards obtaining my dietetic license and feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to focus a portion of my graduate studies on such an impactful area of care.
