Dietitians play a crucial role in the identification and assessment of, and response to a client who may be experiencing or is at risk of developing an eating disorder.

The Eating Disorders and the Dietitian Decision-Making Tool was developed in collaboration with the Dietitians Association of Australia. The tool provides a step-by-step guide to support dietitians working in the community or private practice in the safe and effective identification of and response to eating disorders.
