Training the Aging Network to Provide Culturally Competent Care for LGBTQ Older Adults
 March 2019 | Center for Consumer Engagement in Health Innovation
“ The SAGE training has helped
me provide better care to my
LGBTQ patients. It’s made me
feel more comfortable and
understanding about my
patients’ needs. In turn, my
comfort level has helped build
more trust in my relationship
with my patients.”
This brief provides a case example and explores the question of why providing culturally competent care to LGBTQ older adults is important.

As a result, Ensig-Brodsky helped create the Pride Senior Network, an organization aimed at providing LGBT older adults with a wide range of services.
