ANOREXIA NERVOSA: PROVIDING PATIENT CARE

Course overview

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is an eating disorder characterized by self-induced eating restrictions that cause self-induced starvation and weight loss. This continuing education module is designed to give the reader/learner an increased understanding of relevant research on the general principles of caring for a patient with AN, including why this is important and information to provide to the patient’s family. Readers may explore any or all of the topics. One contact hour of continuing education credit is available for those who successfully complete the post-test and evaluation form.
