Session Description:
This session was a must-attend at PLIDA's recent International Perinatal Bereavement Conference in New Orleans. Dr. Mauser was an exceptional speaker with fantastic content.
Just as LGBTQ+ patients experience unique health related risk factors and barriers to care, LGBTQ+ parents experiencing the grief and loss of a child may face similar challenges. Affirming care aims to reduce disparities in health equity through compassionate, person-centered care in a safe and inclusive environment. In this talk, we will discuss how the principles of affirming care can be used to support LGBTQ+ parents experiencing infant loss.
