Projects
- Description
- This project aims to explore older urban and rural Tasmanian gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and intersex (GLBTI) people's past and present life experiences that may impact upon their future health and health care. Through this, it aims to achieve a deeper understanding of their preferences and expectations for their future aged care and support needs as they grow older. In parallel, it aims to explore Tasmanian Aged Care Service Providers' (ACSPs) capacity and readiness for delivering GLBTI friendly services. Together, these two activities will both identify any gap in GLBTI friendly service provision, and facilitate discussion of how that gap can be closed.
