Works and outreach to the LGBT Community
The aging process is difficult for everyone, but for our Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual & Transgender
(LGBT) seniors the perception of availability for resource and understanding amongst Senior
Care providers can be very frustrating. In many cases resulting in forcing our LGBT Seniors to
conceal who they are, often leading to a decrease in quality of life. It has become clear that
there is a need for Healthcare providers who wish to outreach and care for LGBT Seniors to
tighten their communication bridge, and work together to provide a better quality of care for
the LGBT Seniors of Washington State.
