It will benefit all clinicians?advanced practice nurses, physician assistants, physicians?from students to experienced providers, whether they provide obesity treatment or refer to those who do. This guide addresses the numerous barriers that clinicians encounter when they contemplate or attempt conversations about weight and provides strategies to reduce and overcome these barriers. It guides clinicians step-by-step through the concepts and skills needed to have conversations that lead to improved health. Each chapter provides useful tools and information about how to move the conversation forward in a respectful, skillful manner. Real life clinical scenarios provide examples of short, productive conversations that incorporate the tools into clinical practice. Many clinicians recognize the importance of discussing weight with their patients yet feel unprepared to do so. Most did not learn about obesity or how to talk about it in their clinical educational programs and have little access to continuing education. Without the knowledge and skills to start a productive conversation, many avoid the topic. This avoidance has a negative impact on the health of those with obesity and pre-obesity. Given that obesity treatment improves outcomes, it is imperative that clinicians are skilled at discussing weight with knowledge and sensitivity. This book meets that gap. 606 $aNursing$xStudy and teaching 606 $aDiseases 606 $aSports sciences 606 $aNursing Education 606 $aDiseases 606 $aSport Science 615 0$aNursing$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aDiseases. 615 0$aSports sciences. 615 14$aNursing Education. 615 24$aDiseases. 615 24$aSport Science. 676 $a155.234 700 $aChristensen$b Sandra$01226153 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483122003321 996 $aA clinician's guide to discussing obesity with patients$92846932 997 $aUNINA
