CE Course Description There is a commonly held misconception that eating disorders are a lifestyle choice. Eating disorders are actually serious medical illnesses and often fatal illnesses that are associated with severe disturbances in people’s eating behaviors and related thoughts and emotions. Obsessions with food, body weight, and shape may be signs of an eating disorder. These disorders can affect a person’s physical and mental health; in some cases, they can be life-threatening. But eating disorders can be treated. Learning more about them can help you spot the warning signs and help you provide the treatment necessary. This course has been developed for that purpose. This course is an online, non-interactive, reading based, self-paced, and asynchronous course. If you have questions about the course, require accessibility accommodations or need assistance, please email [email protected] or call (909) 628-4216.
