Intervention to Collect and Utilize Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) Information in Hospice

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Sexual and Gender Minorities, Hospice, Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias

In brief

Older sexual and gender minority (SGM) patients are at risk for receiving inequitable end-of-life care; those with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) are at particularly high risk. Failure to collect and integrate sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data to identify patients' informal support systems may have adverse health consequences for SGM older adults, particularly for those dependent on informal caregivers to provide in-home support and assist with activities of daily living. The goal of this K01 is develop a novel training for hospice staff in person-centered communication that includes SOGI data collection to promote authentic end-of-life care for SGM patients and their caregivers.
