In an innovative collaboration, Palliative Care Australia (PCA) and LGBTIQ+ Health Australia recently hosted a webinar that delved into the heart of palliative care, shining a spotlight on the often-overlooked needs of the LGBTIQ+ communities. Titled 'Embracing Inclusion: Providing Supportive Palliative Care for LGBTIQ+ Communities,' the webinar fostered crucial conversation on how healthcare can better support individuals navigating their end-of-life journey.
At the core of the webinar was Ty's personal journey, shedding light on hurdles faced by many in the LGBTIQ+ communities when seeking palliative care. Ty's story emphasising the urgency of dismantling barriers and enhancing the healthcare system's responsiveness to diverse patient experiences.
The expert panel of speakers share their knowledge and insights on best practice for creating inclusive and supportive environments for LGBTIQ+ patients and their loved ones in palliative care.
The video recording is now available for those who may have missed it, providing an opportunity to review the insightful discussions and gain a deeper understanding of how we can collectively build a more compassionate and inclusive future for palliative care.
As we express our gratitude to Palliative Care Australia and LGBTIQ+ Health Australia for driving this initiative, let us carry forward the momentum. It is through these conversations and collaborations that we can create a healthcare environment that truly embraces diversity, ensuring that no one is left behind during their most vulnerable moments.
