are responsible for means and cost of transportation. The amount of time
and cost will vary depending on how far the intern lives from the rotation
sites. Interns are liable for safety in travel to and from their
assigned areas. Since the interns are responsible to complete their
rotations at numerous locations, travel can differ from week to week.
Many facilities provide free parking, but interns may have to pay for parking
in some rotation sites.

a cost of about $200. Most other texts are kept in the dietitian’s offices
and can be borrowed by the intern. Other costs would include photocopying and
presentation materials.
