MODULE 6 0VERVIEW
The 1970s brought in an era of gay liberation and a demand
for equitable treatment for the LGBT population. Culturally sensitive
healthcare for this population has significantly lagged behind other social
changes.
Discrimination has led to significant health issues for
the LGBT population. Community health nurses are increasingly called upon to
provide support and services to the LGBT population. An understanding of
specific health problems associated with this population will lead to effective
intervention and support.
