This one-day course is designed to help clinicians meet and overcome the enormous challenges of managing really sick inpatients with anorexia nervosa (AN).
The aim is to educate healthcare professionals on assessing and managing patients with AN and to reduce the deaths in hospital of patients (often young) with very severe eating disorders.
The course covers assessment and treatment of adults and children.
This course is run but UCL's Division of Medicine. It's part of the MSc in Eating Disorders and Clinical Nutrition but can also be taken as a standalone CPD module.
