LGBTEI Senior Resource Guide for Healthcare

In survey after survey, LGBT seniors cite competent, culturally sensitive and welcoming medical care as a primary concern as they age. As part of its mission, the LGBT Elder Initiative produces this LGBT Senior-friendly Resource Guide. This portion of the Guide is devoted to help LGBT older adults and their friends and families identify Physicians, Dentists and other healthcare providers who can meet their needs.

The LGBT Senior Resource Guide for Healthcare is new and will grow and change as we receive your feedback.  For this Guide, we define LGBT-friendly as a provider that you would feel comfortable recommending to a friend or loved one who is lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.  There is no requirement that a resource have specific non-discrimination policies, culturally sensitive forms, staff training, etc.  The provider should, in your opinion and/or experience, be LGBT-friendly.

Because our definition of LGBT-friendly is broad, we ask that you keep us informed about the resources listed in this Guide.  Whether you have a positive or a negative experience with any of the resources listed in this Guide, please let us know.  Be as detailed and specific as possible with your comments.

We also ask that you inform us about other resources that you think are LGBT-friendly.  New resources that you recommend can be in this category or in another category altogether.  The information that you provide will be shared with other people just like you.

You can recommend a new healthcare resource, or comment on a resource already listed in the Guide, by emailing the details to us at info@lgbtei.org.  You can also comment in the section provided.

This LGBTEI Senior Resource Guide for Healthcare will grow and change with your input, so please keep us informed.
