Job Responsibility: LMC Healthcare (LMC) is Canada's largest specialist care provider in diabetes & endocrinology. Currently, our team is looking for a Health Coach who can work with us on a temporary part time basis for 12 months (hours will be based on the needs of the program). This is a remote opportunity.
LMC Diabetes Education Team, in collaboration with the Diabetes Leadership Foundation and Diabetes Canada, is delivering the Type 1 Diabetes Coaching Program. The program is a unique 6-month health coaching program designed to move patients along their individual self-management journey.
The health coach complements the diabetes educator (CDE) role; instead of providing patients with education, the health coach will help patients turn the program modules into real-life actions and learnings.
The health coach will take the time to understand each patient and their own type 1 diabetes experience.
The health coach will provide patients with a judgement-free space to help them achieve their health goals and help build confidence to overcome any obstacles or challenges life may bring while managing type 1 diabetes.
Ultimately, the health coach will need to:
Help move patients along their self-management journey.
Work with patients to set health goals.
Help patients apply the tools & content they've learned in order to improve their self-care.
Assist with administrative tasks as needed.
A Bachelor's degree in exercise science, nutrition, life sciences, nursing or other health-related field.
Additional training in health coaching is preferred.
Experience teaching/counselling individuals and small groups.
Excellent computer skills.
Own a personal computer with high-speed internet access (for working remotely).
