Eating disorders nurses work in specialist outpatient eating disorder services, day programmes, and inpatient eating disorder units — providing therapeutic care for patients with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, ARFID, and binge eating disorder, monitoring physical risk, co-ordinating nasogastric feeding, supporting family-based treatment, and facilitating therapeutic groups. The reading load spans NICE NG69 (eating disorders), MARSIPAN and Junior MARSIPAN medical risk guidelines, NHS England eating disorders care pathway, RCPsych QNED standards, and journals including the International Journal of Eating Disorders, European Eating Disorders Review, and BJPsych. Converting these PDFs to EPUB makes them searchable on mobile devices for physical risk monitoring, nasogastric feeding review, and CPD.
