Promoting Cultural Humility: Lgbtqia+ Education For Healthcare Providers, Lexi Robertson, Lauren Connelly
VCU Health Nursing
Abstract:
Purpose:
LGBTQIA+ patients experience devastating mental health and substance abuse disparities. While our organization has a broad non-discrimination statement that includes gender identity and sexual orientation, there is no guidance for how to best serve these patients. Evidence suggests training sessions are a successful means of increasing LGBTQIA+ cultural competency, with “Safe Zone” identified as being especially successful on college campuses. The Healthcare Equality Index also calls for education to demonstrate healthcare organizations’ commitment to LGBTQIA+ patients.
Intervention:
We developed an educational workshop - Safe Zone – with university psychologists. This workshop included interactive exercises that focused on increasing …
