AIM
To outline the experiences and needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) Australians living with dementia - and their partners.
METHODS
In-depth interviews were conducted with LGBT people, their partners and service providers.
RESULTS
LGBT people living with dementia experience unique challenges including the failure of some families of origin and service providers to understand and value their sexual orientation or gender identity. The fear of discrimination by service providers results in greater reliance on intimate partners for care and compounds social isolation.
CONCLUSIONS
The unique experiences of LGBT people with dementia are not well understood. There is a need to recognise historical experiences, including familial relationships, and provide advocacy to ensure sexual and gender rights are not violated. There is also a need to ensure that the experiences and perspectives of LGBT people living with dementia inform the development of services.
目的
概述患有痴呆症的澳大利亚女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者（LGBT）及其伴侣的经历和需求。
方法
对LGBT群体、他们的伴侣以及服务提供者进行了深入访谈。
结果
患有痴呆症的LGBT群体面临独特的挑战，包括一些原生家庭和服务提供者未能理解和重视他们的性取向或性别认同。对服务提供者歧视的恐惧导致他们在护理方面更加依赖亲密伴侣，并加剧了社会隔离。
结论
人们对患有痴呆症的LGBT群体的独特经历了解不足。有必要认识到包括家庭关系在内的历史经历，并进行宣传倡导，以确保性权利和性别权利不被侵犯。还需要确保患有痴呆症的LGBT群体的经历和观点能够为服务的发展提供参考。
