There is a need to increase improve the delivery of health care for sexual minorities. The lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community has historically experienced bias, discrimination, and perceived inadequate or inappropriate care. Reduction of this barrier can begin by providers addressing implicit bias and creating a welcoming, safe environment for all persons seeking care. Using preferred name and pronouns and obtaining a sexual health history that is individualized and free from assumption is imperative. This article provides interventions to diminish barriers to care and foster provider preparedness for the care of LGBTQ individuals.
需要提高性少数群体的医疗保健服务水平。历史上,女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别和酷儿(LGBTQ)群体一直经历着偏见、歧视和被认为护理不足或不适当。减少这一障碍可以从提供者解决隐性偏见和为所有寻求护理的人创造一个欢迎和安全的环境开始。使用他们喜欢的名字和代词,并获得一个个体化的、没有假设的性健康史是至关重要的。本文提供了减少护理障碍和培养提供者为 LGBTQ 个人提供护理准备的干预措施。
