Including LGBTQIA+ people in dementia-related services
LGBTQIA+ older adults and their caregivers face unique challenges when facing Alzheimer's Disease. However, these tips will help:
• Expand your definition of family. Many LGBTQIA+ people do not have relationships with their family, children, or partners. Consider using terms like loved ones or network of support. Understand that for many, family are the people they choose to have in their life.
• Use positive LGBTQIA+ language. Don't be shy about using the words lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender.
• Participate in LGBTQIA+ activities. Show support by participating in positive LGBTQIA+ events.
• Include LGBTQIA+ people in your family, business, religious/spiritual, and social circles.
• Educate the people in your life on LGBTQIA+ cultural lifestyles.
• Find or create support groups specifically for LGBTQIA+ caregivers and LGBTQIA+ people living with dementia and memory loss.
• Partner with local LGBTQIA+ community groups and political organizations
• Advocate for non-discrimination protections for LGBTQIA+ older adults.
• Collect information on sexual orientation and gender identity. Be prepared to have appropriate conversations and support LGBTQIA+ people.
