How LGBTQ people experience healthcare encounter : A litterature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: En god och jämlik hälsa för hela befolkningen är ett centralt mål för hälso-och sjukvården. Men forskning indikerar att HBTQ-personer upplever en sämre hälsa än övriga befolkningsgrupper och förekomsten av psykisk ohälsa är betydligt högre bland homo-och bisexuella jämfört med heterosexuella. Dessutom har forskning visat att HBTQ-personer utsätts för stigmatisering och diskriminering i samhället i stort men även inom vården. Den sociala stigmatiseringen och diskrimineringen gentemot HBTQ-personer anses ha en inverkan på den fysiska och psykiska hälsan. Syfte: Att beskriva hur HBTQ-personers upplever bemötandet inom vården. Metod: En litteraturöversikt med kvalitativ ansats utformades. Studien baserades på elva kvalitativa original artiklar som analyserades med en tematisk analysmetod. Resultat: Två teman identifierades: vårdpersonalens kompetens och vårdpersonalens attityd med tillhörande underteman:kommunikation, kunskap, diskriminering och stigmatisering och acceptans. Slutsats: En ökad kunskap och medvetenhet kring HBTQ behövs hos sjuksköterskor och övrig vårdpersonal för att kunna bemöta och tillgodose en jämlik vård till HBTQ-personer. Genom att utbilda framtida och nuvarande sjuksköterskor inom ämnet ökar möjligheten för en mer inkluderande och jämlik hälso-och sjukvård. 

Abstract [en]

Background: Good and equal health for the entire population is a key goal of health care. However, research indicates that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people experience poorer health than other population groups and the incidence of mental illness is significantly higher among homosexuals and bisexuals compared to heterosexuals. In addition, research has shown that LGBTQ-people are exposed to stigma and discrimination in society at large but also in healthcare. The social stigma and discrimination against LGBTQ people is considered to have an impact on the physical and mental health. It is important that the nurse has the right competence regarding LGBTQ-people in order to be able to meet and satisfy equal care. Aim: To describe how LGBTQ-people experience health care encounter. Method: A literature review with a qualitative method was designed. The study was based on eleven qualitative original articles that were analyzed using a thematic analysis method. Result: Two themes emerged: the health care staff’s competence and the health care staff’s attitude with associated subthemes: communication, knowledge, discrimination and stigmatization and acceptance. Conclusion: An increased knowledge and awareness of the LGBTQ community’s needs is necessary among nurses and other healthcare professionals, to be able to provide equal care. Opportunities for an inclusive and equal health care increases when future and current nurses are educated in the subject
