ACCESSCare
is the first national study to examine in depth the experiences of LGBT people
facing advanced illness. It shows that despite
recent legislative change, experiences of discrimination and exclusion in
health care persist for LGBT people. Ten recommendations, for health-care
professionals and services/institutions, are made from the data. These are
simple, low cost and offer potential gains in access to, and outcomes of, care
for LGBT people.
