In part two of this series, Nicola Salmon explores how to recognise bias and the practical steps healthcare practitioners can take to eradicate it through recognition, challenging, noticing and leadership.

The bias fat people face in healthcare is systemic, but judgmental and shaming behaviour can be particularly devastating in fertility and perinatal care. Midwives can have a positive impact on the care of fat people throughout their pregnancies when they begin to understand and explore how bias shows up in their work and how even the smallest of actions can have a big impact on the physical and mental health of patients. In part one of this two-part series, fat-positive fertility coach Nicola Salmon explores what anti-fat bias looks like in evidence-based care and how to spot it.
