I spent years thinking exhaustion was just part of being a healthcare provider. Turns out it was just what happens when you’re underfed and under slept and trying to make clinical decisions all day anyway.

Once I started actually eating enough and protecting my sleep, everything changed. My brain worked. I had patience left at the end of the day. I wasn’t white knuckling through my last three patients.

If you’re a hands on provider, chiropractor, PT, massage therapist, OT, this is for you. Our work asks a lot physically and mentally. You cannot do that well running on a deficit. Feeding yourself is what lets you actually be present for the patient instead of running on fumes and hoping nobody notices.

Weight-Inclusive Care Training walks you through how to reduce weight-stigma and reflect on your own biases and health patterns.

Let the whistleblowing begin!

Please go listen to the first episode of the podcast Exposing Obesity Incorporated by Ragen Chastain and UNTRAPPED and bring a note pad!

Current weight loss industry is using the playbook directly from Purdue Pharma. These companies have made it clear they don’t mind people dying as long as they’re making money.

Reducing weight stigma in healthcare benefits is all.
Giving patients informed consent and letting patients decide what treatments and procedure they endure is the heart of ethical care.
We will continue to fight and train healthcare providers to reduce harm.

What does your staff say when a patient refuses to be weighed?

You need to have this talk with your staff before they start weighing patients.

A patient has the right to refuse being weighed just like any other medical procedure.

📢 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 📢 We noticed a problem: there were ZERO cultural competency courses available in Oregon for weight-inclusive care. We decided to fix that.

Are you a physician, nurse, chiropractor, social worker, dentist, therapist, pharmacist, or other healthcare professional who wants to deliver safer, more inclusive care to patients of all body sizes?

We’ve designed a new Cultural Competency Training course for you!

Our course Enhancing the Patient Experience: Fostering Safety and Reducing Stigma for All Body Sizes has been approved as a Cultural Competency Training by the Oregon Health Authority and includes 2 CE credit hours.

When healthcare is weight-centric, we tend to see delayed or missed diagnoses, healthcare avoidance due to weight stigma, and reduced access to evidence-based treatment. By making our practices weight-inclusive, we can focus on patient care at any size, provide patients access to care without fear of weight stigma, reduce the negative effects of weight cycling from focusing on weight loss, and direct effort towards treating underlying health conditions at the root.
