LGBTQ+
All Practice staff are required to complete annual training on Equality and Diversity as part of the Statutory and Mandatory package.
As well as the Equality and Diversty course, practice staff are required to complete a course on LGBTQ+.
In completing this course, staff gain:
- a better understanding of the barriers faced by the LGBTQ+ communities in accessing services and why there is a higher prevalence of inequalities in health outcomes.
- increased awareness of how to support LGBTQ+ patients at the practice by having a better understanding of those individuals.
- an awareness in developing inclusive practices and patient-centred care.
