Abstract
The aim of this QI project was twofold, improve SHC staff confidence, knowledge, and practices in obesity management and implement a standardized approach to identify and provide evidence-based treatment. A 45-minute virtual education was held that covered weight terminology, AAP guidelines, weight bias, stigma, etc. Pre-education surveys and 4-month post-education surveys were collected. The aim of this project was not met, post-surveys showed improvements in both confidence and practice. Beliefs did not illustrate improvement but illustrate how providers own perceived beliefs may affect treatment and management.
