An Assessment of the Long‐Term Efficacy of an Undergraduate Curriculum‐Embedded Weight Bias Intervention in Practicing Registered Nurses

In order for nurses to provide unbiased care for individuals with obesity, it is important to develop and implement both high-impact educational interventions that support reduced weight bias and organizational and structural supports in the practice environment.
