John Pantel is an Assistant Professor and the Director of Clinical Education for the Graduate Coordinated Program (CP) in Dietetics in the Department of Rehabilitation, Exercise, and Nutrition Sciences at the University of Cincinnati (UC). He has been with UC since 2017 where he teaches several undergraduate courses and oversees the placement of more than 30 supervised practice students annually throughout greater Cincinnati. John led the transition from an undergraduate to a master’s CP in clinical nutrition and has spearheaded an initiative with the UC College of Allied Health’s Interprofessional Collaborative Practice Committee to incorporate interprofessional education into the curriculum for students across all disciplines in the college. Most recently, he worked with the UC College of Nursing to create an interprofessional experience between dietetic and nursing students in their simulation and skills lab to meet the new ACEND competencies for conducting health screenings, providing diabetes MNT and placing feeding tubes. John has undergone extensive training in quality improvement methodology at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center to help dietetic students in the graduate CP learn, implement, and develop this valuable skill as part of their training.
