Sex is an ADL!
Do you address a client's sexuality or ask how they identify?
These are the questions that we must ask ourselves in order to provide client centered care, keeping in mind AOTA’s Vision 2025: “As an inclusive profession, OT maximizes health, well-being and quality of life for all people, populations, and communities, through effective solutions that facilitate participation in everyday living."
Guest Devlynn Neu MS OTR/L shares their passion for bringing awareness and unity within the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as helping OT practitioners feel comfortable addressing sexuality in our practice.
Key Takeaways: Use neutral terms - "partner," "significant other" Ask "How would you identify yourself?" Start with conversations and being open to learning about Resources from the Show: Inclusive Services for LGBT Older Adults A Practical Guide To Creating Welcoming Agencies
National Resource Center on LGBT Aging
LGBT Aging Change, Challenge and Resilience Power Point
Person-Centered Care for LGBT Older Adults
Be sure to learn more from my guest Devlynn with their "LGBTIA+ 101: What do the letters mean" series on Instagram through @therainbowot, theRainbowOT.com and through their conversation with Sarah from OT4Lyfe Podcast called Inclusion, Education, and All the Colors of the Rainbow.
