Category: HAES as a framework in medicine
Health at every size can be a useful framework to implement in medical trainings at all levels in healthcare. Based off of surveys conducted among nursing students, it was noticed that Health Care Practitioners show their own weight bias through patients care. Among 197 Nursing students, five journal prompts were given for them to answer, asking themes regarding weight bias they have observed themselves or their own beliefs on weight and health. Throughout the journals, themes were identified among these nursing students: 1) there are instances of direct impact of weight stigma towards patients in larger bodies whether it be implicit or explicit, 2) there are instances of indirect impact of weight stigma towards patients in larger bodies, like when using equipment that cannot support these patients, and 3) nursing students feeling conflicted about the messages being sent by other healthcare providers and the information they have learned within their weight bias training (Oliver et al 2020). Looking at the responses from this study by Oliver et al 2020, there is a need for reform in the way that we go about training future healthcare professionals. If future clinicians are trained under a weight-neutral framework, then this can in turn fight the current thin-centric narrative that healthcare operates out of. Often times, nursing students and young healthcare professionals feel as though they cannot speak up against their boss, leaving them feeling unsure of what do in a situation in which they are observing weight stigma.

Not done for now: It is unclear what edit you are requesting (I'm guessing you want this text inserted somewhere?), and the text you provided above contains original research ('Looking at the responses from this study... there is a need...') and unreferenced claims ('Often times, nursing students and young healthcare professionals feel as though they cannot speak up against their boss, leaving them feeling unsure of what do in a situation in which they are observing weight stigma.')

- This source demonstrates that weight bias exists in nursing, but the paper is not about HAES per se. ParticipantObserver (talk) 09:18, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Reference listed twice
editReferences 3 and 13 on the current list appear to be to the same article. I'm not quite sure I could fix this without screwing something up, so I'm posting this request for someone more practiced at such edits to fix it. Thank you! Critterkeeper (talk) 01:39, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
Principles of HAES
editIs anyone aware of a good source that lists the principles of HAES? One source was previously cited because its authors had very clearly spelled out their understanding of what the principles were... but editors have challenged the source on the basis of quality (it was an erratum). We can try to pull together a bunch of sources that indicate what specific proponents think that HAES is, but it would be better if there is a single reliable source that describes the approach in a relatively representative way. Anyone know of something that would serve that purpose? Thanks. ParticipantObserver (talk) 16:39, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
