merits mention only within the context of discussions about disease and
dysfunction. When LGBTQ people are relegated to a single chapter in a book,
the clinicians most in need of the information may skip reading it entirely.
Even more concerning, this approach to the presentation of content reinforces
the idea that LGBTQ people are "other." (In Advanced Practice Palliative
Nursing, the single mention of LGBTQ people is included in a list of other
"special populations," sandwiched between "prison inmates" and
"individuals with substance use disorders" [Gibson 2016]).
MAKING THE SHIFT TO LGBTQ-INCLUSIVE CARE
This book turns the traditional approach to addressing LGBTQ patients in
palliative care and hospice upside down, in order to help clinicians make the
shift from providing special care to LGBTQ people to instead providing
inclusive care to all people, including those who are LGBTQ.
In writing LGBTQ-Inclusive Hospice and Palliative Care, I made a conscious
decision to use a conversational tone rather than an academic one. Unlike
discipline-specific books that cover dense, foundational content like the
pathophysiology of pain, pharmacology, or pain and symptom management,
this book seeks to provide both new and experienced hospice and palliative
care professionals with the knowledge they need to shift from providing
high-quality care to high-quality LGBTQ-inclusive care. You may be reading this
and thinking that you already provide LGBTQ-inclusive care. You treat every
person the same - why would your treatment of LGBTQ people and their
families be any different? These are great questions, and ones I hear a lot.
Providing LGBTQ-inclusive care requires a shift in the way you think about
hospice and palliative care. Being inclusive is not the same as treating
everyone the same. In fact, treating everyone the same is an approach that
rarely benefits patients, regardless of whether they are LGBTQ, because
patients aren't all the same. This book will give you clear, actionable
strategies to use in transforming your care of patients so that it is truly
LGBTQ-inclusive. The ultimate goal is for LGBTQ-inclusive care to be what
you provide to all patients - not a "specialized" form of care provided to
LGBTQ patients.
Providing LGBTQinclusive hospice
and palliative care
involves making subtle
changes in the way you
approach almost every
aspect of care.
USING THIS BOOK TO MAKE THE SHIFT
Providing LGBTQ-inclusive hospice and palliative care involves making subtle
changes in the way you approach almost every aspect of care. At first glance,
the titles of chapters in this book may appear to reflect topics with which you
are already quite familiar. While experienced hospice and palliative care
professionals are likely to have a solid background in many of these broad
