What biases are noted in the treatment of morbidly obese patients? Negative attitudes and opinions toward the morbidly obese, which is so-called bias against the patient, can result in actions or lack of actions that may greatly affect a patient’s health. Not having standard supplies and equipment, such as hospital gowns, examination tables, or blood pressure cuffs large enough to accommodate morbidly obese patients, can create an uncomfortable environment. Patients’ perceptions of being stigmatized by healthcare providers, specifically nurses, can lead to feelings of shame, marginalization, and anxiety. Regardless of healthcare personnel’s opinions or the reasons for the patients’ obesity, the priority is to provide the best quality of care while ensuring dignity and remaining compassionate and empathetic.” 2.
