NHS: LGBT+ People
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the article by the NHS Confederation Leading for all: supporting trans and non-binary healthcare staff, published in June; and what status that guidance has within the NHS.
- Answer
-
No specific assessment has been made. The guidance has not been issued by NHS England and it does not need to be followed by individual trusts. Whilst it is important we support staff working in the National Health Service, we also need to ensure that patients’ privacy and dignity is respected.
