Resources to support your patients affected by eating disorders
Feb. 26 through Mar. 3, 2024 is Eating Disorders Awareness Week, a campaign from the Eating Disorders Association.
Eating disorders are complex, potentially life-threatening medical and psychiatric illnesses that can affect people of all ages, races, genders, body shapes and weights. They can have devastating health consequences, impacting every organ system in the body. They’re also treatable.
If you have patients experiencing an eating disorder, we have resources to help.
