Culture Project: transgender

By:

According to GLAAD

(Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation), Transgender is a term used to describe people whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.

                   Social customs

Coming out! (Bruce Jenner to Caitlin Jenner, Ellen Page to Elliot Page)

-Nurses need to be aware that transgender patients may be packing, which is placing a penile prosthesis in the underwear or binding, which is tight fitting sports bras or Ace bandages across the bust.

-Nurses need to be sensitive to the topic of hormone replacement and gender reassignment surgery.

-Social activism and nursing 

 advocacy for transgender patients.

-Some transgender patients may

 elect to change their style of

 clothing, hair, and change legal 

 name.

Bruce Jenner- Gold medal winner and public speaker

Bruce transitioned and changed name to

Caitlin Jenner.

Health care practices

Ask patients about gender identity on registration forms, include fields for listed sex at birth, preferred name and pronouns.

Ask patients how they would like to be addressed.

Apologize for mistakes. Sometimes mistakes happen, and simple apologies can go a long way.

Avoid asking for a patient's "real" name. Patients may feel offended.

Only discuss a patient's transgender status in a private setting and only with those who need to know in order to provide appropriate and sensitive care.

Barriers to care

-Lack of access to providers and healthcare workers that have sufficient knowledge about transgender people.

-Financial barriers to healthcare due to health insurance companies not covering the cost of hormone therapy and the cost to transition. However, many insurance plans have removed the exclusion that single out transgenders as they are protected under federal and state laws.

-Nurses should be aware that there are barriers to mental health resources due to prejudice, therefore there is an increased risk of violence, suicide, and STIs.

Gender Roles/sexuality

Healthcare workers need to be aware:

-Gender identity and sexual orientation are two different things

-Gender identity refers to your own internal knowledge of your own gender

-Gender roles within the community are not set in stone and most trans people believe you don’t have to follow them if they don’t fit you as a person 

-Gender and sex exist on a spectrum, meaning that there are a lot of different ways that people can express their gender identity and/or sexuality 

-Sexual orientation deals with who you’re attracted to and like cisgender people, transgender people can have any sexual orientation

        *Example: a transgender man may be attracted to other men and identify as a gay man or may be attracted to women and identify as a straight man or have any other sexual orientation

Birth/Death practices 

- No birth practices since transgenders don't realize their identity until year(s) after birth. 

- Nurses should be aware that death practices/ rituals/ rites are often denied due to family abandonment.

- Nurses will hear stories of abandonment that reach multiple geographies of racial, ethnic, religious, and gender difference. 

- Nurses need to be aware of cultural differences:

   - In Turkey, Transgender are buried as the sex assigned at birth unless they have completed the official gender transition, a process that takes about two years with surgeries.

   - In India, Transgenders were buried in a secluded area, not cremated which is custom. Hindu priests also refuse to perform post death rituals for transgenders.

   - In America, the American Indians recognize Transgender. In the Native American Culture, everything that exists is thought to come from the spirit world. Someone who is Transgender is thought of as "double blessed" and the term referring to them is "Two-Spirited." For many Native American cultures, rather than stigmatizing such persons, they're seen as more spiritually gifted and often viewed as spiritual leaders and teachers. Death practices are respected and buried as they are. 

Nutrition

-Research shows transgender people are more apt to experience food insecurity than non-transgender people.  Nurses can offer and educate on community resources like SNAP.

-Food insecurity results from lack of resources due to employment discrimination, housing and healthcare discrimination, and homelessness.  Nurses can get a referral for social service consult.

-The transgender community has a high prevalence of eating disorders, "unhealthy weight control behaviors, weight misperception, and body dissatisfaction."

Females are more likely to be overweight or obese.  Nurses can seek dietary consult or support group.

-Members of this community lack knowledge and skills of dietary intake. Nurses can consider asking for a dietary consult and educate.

-Poor nutrition is also linked to the transgender having the highest rates of tobacco use and alcohol and other drug use.  Nurses can consider smoking cessation and give patient external resources for addiction support.

-Strategies for improvement include creating a welcoming environment inclusive of these patients, support and nurture patients and families, facilitate their disclosure, advance effective communication, and finally promote community involvement and advocacy.

Religion

RELIGION

-Transgender does not mean anti-religious or anti-God as it is not "turning away" from God, rather "turning to" one's self-identified identity... so ask if they would like Spiritual Care

-Know the Trans-accepting churches, resources, or safe-havens within the community you work; with trans-centered violence and abandonment you never know which patient will need it during discharge planning

-Inform the Spiritual Team of preferred identity/pronouns beforehand AND incorporate one's selected family in the spiritual care of the patient

-Before you consider passing judgment... "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her".  Bible KJV John 8:7
