I could probably write a book on it myself as have been interested in it for over 35 years and there are some fantastic books written by people with no formal qualifications but tweenyb actually stated working in surgeries or hospitals.

As others have suggested, you'll need a university degree to work in those fields within the NHS.

You need to undertake a university degree course to become a qualified dietician. I work in the NHS and you would not get employment on the basis of home study or non-acceptable qualification.
Here's the sort of job you'd be looking for once you qualify - you'll see they specify that they want a graduate http://www.jobs.nhs.u...i?selection=912654971
