Making Our Clinical Practice More LGB and TGD Friendly: A Practical Exercise in On-the-Ground Activism
Dr. Michelle Forcier MD, MPH
Pediatric nurses are often a first line or trusted contact for pediatric and adolescent patients, which can be lifesaving for the youth and critical to the parents/guardians in supporting the child. Understanding and normalizing the universal but diverse experience of gender identity development allows pediatric nurses to support all youth in the context of providing excellent pediatric nursing care.
