Healthcare is being tailored to better serve non-binary, trans and queer consumers
Trend - LGBTQ+ consumers have been underserved by the traditional healthcare industry and as a result, designers and organizations are working to introduce training, products, and services that will center the needs of this community— in terms of gender dysphoria therapy, clinical consultations, and more.
Insight - Members of the LGBTQ+ community have needs and experiences that conventional clinicians have difficulty addressing. This has the potential of resulting in an uncomfortable environment where the patient does not receive the support they require. A demand is created for spaces that are better equipped and specialized to take care of and give aid to LGBTQ+ consumers in respectful and adequate ways. This, in turn, allows individuals to feel comfortable and better supported as they work through and resolve what is troubling them.
