Roberto L Roman LaporteJoseph P De SantisPublished in: ANS. Advances in nursing science (2023)
Clients who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning (LGBT+) may experience barriers in health care access and services. LGBT+ clients want a welcoming, inclusive, and affirming encounter with nurses and other health care providers. This concept analysis used a modified Walker and Avant method to clarify the concept of LGBT+ inclusive health care. Antecedents, attributes, and consequences of LGBT+ inclusive health care were identified from the literature. The results of this concept analysis of LGBT+ inclusive health care can inform future research, policy, education, and practice to address the health care needs of this population.
