Description
Jennifer Couturier and a large team study barriers to using Canadian eating disorder guidelines for youth, in work published in 2026. Care for these disorders in Canada is marked by long waits and split services, and guidelines aim to raise consistency. One focus group was held in each of nine provinces, mixing clinicians, administrators and people with lived experience.
Groups said uptake was held back by scarce outside resources and little training in the therapies the guidelines advise. Leadership support and direct training helped where present. Suggested steps include adapted versions for families and clinicians, plus stronger education materials. The authors map where health provision can be built out to raise guideline use.
