Delivering truly patient-centered care requires more than expertise in a single discipline. It requires effective collaboration across professions. As nutrition, physical activity, and mental health become increasingly recognized as interconnected pillars of health, practitioners must be equipped to work together and communicate effectively.
Join a panel of experts representing nutrition, exercise, and behavioral health as they explore how collaborative care can improve outcomes for individuals living with obesity. Through practical examples and real-world discussions, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of each profession's role in supporting patients. Panelists will discuss scope of practice considerations, referral strategies, communication techniques, and approaches for building trusted professional networks that enhance patient-centered care.
Whether you work in clinical practice, private practice, community health, fitness, or wellness settings, this webinar will provide actionable guidance for identifying when to lead, when to collaborate, and when to refer to ensure patients receive comprehensive support throughout their obesity care journey.
This webinar is presented jointly by the Academy and the American Council on Exercise (ACE). This webinar is for information only and is not approved for CPE.
