Descriere completă

Ample evidence exists in the non- social work §literature to suggest that weight bias by health and §mental healthcare professionals is a serious social §problem resulting in negative consequences for obese §clients. Despite the role for social workers in §challenging bias and discrimination, the topic of §weight bias among social workers has been absent in §the literature to date. This book assesses weight §bias among social work clinicians and examines its §potential impact on practice. A new tool for §evaluating social work practice with obese clients §is introduced allowing for greater understanding of §this important and neglected topic. This analysis §suggests that social workers may not be immune to §weight bias and in fact, this bias can lead to §discriminatory practice with clients. This book will §shed some light on opportunities for policy change §and future research as well as offer suggestions for §practice interventions for work with obese clients.
