In episode 003 of the Right Now show, we explore the new initiative by the Association for Size Diversity And Health (ASDAH) called RESOLVED: addressing weight bias in health care. Jeanette DePatie (AKA The Fat Chick) shares some stories about her journey in healthcare and shares details about the RESOLVED project with the viewers.
For more information about the RESOLVED project, go to the ASDAH website. And to read another story about a truly frightening misdiagnosis of a fat person, click on THIS LINK.
