Dr Rosalie Yandell

Hi, thanks for your interest in my home page. I am an Accredited Practicing Dietitian, clinical teaching specialist, and placement education coordinator. For over two decades, I have worked as a highly respected and accomplished practitioner, with expertise in education, research and project management. I have held senior clinical and strategic leadership roles across some of Australia’s leading teaching hospitals and within the public health sector.

I led dietetic service provision for South Australia's largest intensive care unit for over a decade, where I also taught and mentored students and practitioners across multiple health professions. I was a key contributor to the development of the Australasian Society for Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition’s (AuSPEN) inaugural Advanced Clinical Nutrition Program. My research in acute care nutrition has been widely published, and two of my publications were invited for inclusion in the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition’s (ASPEN) continuing education program; one of which has been cited over 600 times. My ‘most downloaded’ publication with Dietitians Australia helped shape Australia’s first extended scope of practice for dietitians placing feeding tubes, advancing contemporary dietetic practice. In systems-level leadership roles I led strategic health workforce initiatives across South Australia. This included contributing research and advocacy towards the state’s first enterprise agreement for allied health professionals and co-facilitation and mentoring within SA Health’s flagship leadership development program for clinicians.

I am passionate about preparing the next generation of allied health professionals. My teaching is grounded in contemporary practice and draws upon my extensive experience, with a strong focus on work-integrated learning. I am deeply committed to building strong industry partnerships that give students meaningful, real-world experiences and help industry identify and nurture emerging talent. If you wish to collaborate to shape the future of health professions education, please reach out, I warmly welcome a conversation.
