LGBTQ+ Resources for Providers to Share With Patients
Mickey Kander, PA-C, MSW, MPH, Fairwood Primary Care, gave a presentation on March 24, during LGBTQ Health Awareness Week to help VMC caregivers answer questions about available community resources for LGBTQ+ patients at Valley Medical Center. If you’ve ever sent an email to a colleague seeking help for an LGBTQ patient – this talk is for you. Topics include:
• Social interaction (groups – including intersectional populations)
• Condition specific support (gender affirming care, mental health, substance use, aging)
• Support for families of LGBTQ community members
Here are his slides and here is a resource list.
