Overview
Helping professionals and healthcare providers are trusted with the important role of caring for people during (what can be) vulnerable moments, and it is imperative that they practice with competence and humility. In this honest conversation, M. Greg Green, Author and Advocate, will provide an overview of the LGBTQ+ community, their diverse health needs, and the bias that they can experience in the systems in which we practice. We will cover communication tips for utilizing affirming and respectful language – including an understanding of terms related to gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation that people use to self-identify – and promoting sensitivity and acceptance in our practice spaces. Rounded out by the documentary film, Patient No More, directed by Diana Fraser, which explores the barriers that LGBTQ+ women face when navigating the healthcare system, participants will gain a better understanding of the LGBTQ+ community and the unique challenges and barriers that prevent LGBTQ+ individuals from receiving quality and competent care.
