Gender affirming care: supporting inclusive care

As more trans and gender-diverse people seek care in primary health settings, providing affirming, informed, and culturally safe healthcare has become an essential clinical skill. In this episode, we step into a real-world primary care scenario to explore what gender affirming healthcare looks like in practice. Our expert guest walks through key considerations clinicians may encounter when supporting trans and gender diverse patients – from taking a sensitive and inclusive history, to understanding the informed consent model, to initiating and monitoring gender affirming hormone therapy. Looking to strengthen your confidence in these complex and important consultations? This episode offers practical, experience‑based guidance to support respectful, high‑quality, gender‑affirming care in everyday clinical practice. Access and register for the deep dive webinar: https://ashm.org.au/education/lets-get-clinical/ Guests: Dr Miranda Sherley, Sexual health physician and GPMargot, Community Health Promotion Officer at ACON Resources:Trans and Gender Diverse Sexual Health CareausPATH Standards of CareTransHubGet the whole story from ASHM: Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram This activity is supported by ACT Health Directorate
