Sometimes it’s the simple things that make the biggest impact on patient care.
In episode 14 of Quick Takes Dr. Gratzer talks to two leading experts on transgender care, Dr. Alex Abramovich and Dr. June Lam to get their input on how to foster a respectful and supportive care setting.
The conversation flows between research studies and in-person care and provides an excellent overview of the trans experience in mental health care.
You’ll hear about:
how hormone replacement therapy may interact with psychotropic medicationsthe importance of using the right language when addressing and working with your trans patientsthe high rates of depression, homelessness and suicidality that studies have foundand tips for working with your trans patients to help lower those statistical rates.Follow us on Twitter
