NEDA Survey Results:
Professional Certification is Important to Patients and Their Families
In October and November, 2012 the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) sent an email to everyone in its database inviting participation in an online, confidential, consumer survey about their experiences with eating disorders and their treatment. More than 2,000 individuals voluntarily participated. NEDA received responses from those who suffer personally from eating disorders, those with family members who have been diagnosed with eating disorders and family members who have lost a loved one as a result of an eating disorder.
The majority of all three groups wanted their clinicians to have years of eating disorder experience, the ability to deal with multiple psychological conditions, and certification in eating disorders.
