Recognizing and Treating Feeding and Eating Disorders
Hours: 2.00
Feeding and eating disorders are among the most common psychiatric problems, affecting countless people. Unfortunately, feeding and eating disorders are often difficult to diagnose, and many cases go undetected. This is particularly concerning given that these disorders are associated with severe medical and psychological consequences, including death, osteoporosis, and growth and developmental delays. Because of the significant effect on physical health, feeding and eating disorders have the best health outcomes when early and appropriate intervention and referral are provided. Effective recognition and intervention requires specific knowledge and treatment strategies.
