I need some opinions about how you feel about the example an obese nurse sets to the patient and family. By obese I mean a BMI over 30. We were asked as a class to each post a question on a discussion forum. Thanks.

Hey now, this probably isn't the student's fault. If the assignment was to do a survey about the OP simple question, then that's the question that needs answering. The responses I've seen are well thought-out and informative.

Yes! Most defiantly! How can an obese nurse be listened to and taken seriously during patient teaching on proper diet control?

How can a nurse who makes spelling errors be taken seriously during patient teaching?
