Teaching about obesity: Caring compassion, communication and courage in midwifery education
Teaching innovation can be used to promote the 6Cs in one of the most
purportedly stigmatising areas of maternity care: obesity. As rates
of maternal obesity continue to rise, getting this area of care right
becomes more urgent. Although a great deal has been published about
the unsatisfactory and stigmatising impact that staff attitudes can have
on those with obesity, there is relatively little on how this problematic
area of care should be taught to the next generation of midwives. This
article presents a case study of learning about obesity management at
the pre-registration, undergraduate level. The case study described is an
effort to move away from what is currently largely an academic debate,
towards a set of tangible practice recommendations.
