Course overview

Growing awareness and acknowledgment of diverse gender identities have underscored the need for healthcare professionals to be knowledgeable and prepared to care for transgender individuals. With an estimated 2.6 million Americans, approximately 1% of the adult population, identifying as transgender, culturally competent care has become increasingly essential. This course explores key aspects of transgender healthcare, including definitions, relevant terminology, and the psychosocial challenges faced by this population. It also outlines available treatment options, such as hormone replacement therapy and gender-affirming surgical procedures, along with nursing considerations that support inclusive, respectful, and effective care in clinical environments.
