Abstrakt: Best practice guidelines for inpatient eating disorder (ED) care have not been consistently well implemented at our regional hospital. This research project aimed to address this problem in two phases. Phase one involved understanding: (1) current clinical practice and adherence to evidence based guidelines through a retrospective clinical audit and (2) the perceptions, barriers, enablers and attitudes of the multidisciplinary team providing ED care using a staff survey. The results of these activities highlighted areas for improvement and will be used to guide implementation strategies to align patient care with evidence based practice.
