Abstract:
The workforce of mental health providers serving lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and/or questioning (LGBTQ+) youth lags far behind the demand for LGBTQ-focused mental health care. Unsatisfactory training and a lack of standardized training metrics for accredited programs perpetuate the lack of preparedness among providers. The presence of LGBTQ+ faculty and mentors in medical education increases the amount of LGBTQ+ content taught to trainees and improves professional development for LGBTQ+ trainees. Inclusive workplace practices and affirming care policies may also improve retention and recruitment of LGBTQ-serving mental health providers.
摘要:
为女同性恋服务的心理健康提供者的劳动力,同性恋,双性恋,变性人,酷儿,和/或提问(LGBTQ+)青年远远落后于以LGBTQ为重点的精神保健的需求。不令人满意的培训和缺乏认可计划的标准化培训指标,使提供者之间缺乏准备。LGBTQ+教师和导师在医学教育中的存在增加了向学员讲授的LGBTQ+内容的数量,并改善了LGBTQ+学员的专业发展。包容性的工作场所做法和肯定的护理政策也可以改善为LGBTQ服务的精神卫生提供者的保留和招聘。
