Australian and New Zealand Academy for Eating Disorders Eating Disorder Credential to include GPs

The Australian and New Zealand Academy for Eating Disorders (ANZAED) has expanded its Eating Disorder Credential to include GPs.

With the support of the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care, GPs will soon be able to apply for the ANZAED Eating Disorder Credential and be recognised for their qualifications, training and knowledge to deliver safe and effective eating disorder care.

People experiencing eating disorders and their loved ones will also be able to easily identify credentialed GPs, mental health professionals and dietitians through the connect·ed online directory to access timely and appropriate diagnosis and intervention within primary care.

On 27 March, ANZAED is hosting a webinar for GPs to learn more about the new credential, its criteria, and the application process. Register for the webinar here.
