"The first edition of LGBTQ-Inclusive Hospice & Palliative Care: A Practical Guide to Transforming Professional Practice was the first book designed to change the way hospice and palliative care professionals approach their work with all patients and families, not just with those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender non-conforming, queer, and/or questioning. It was also the first book to contain clear, actionable strategies for palliative care and hospice physicians, advanced practice registered nurses, registered nurses, social workers, counselors, and chaplains to use in transforming care of all patients so that it's truly LGBTQIA-inclusive. Anchored in the evidence, extensively referenced, and written in plain language, the second edition of this award-winning book contains an expanded scope (incorporating intersex and asexual individuals more fully throughout), two new chapters, updated information, and new examples drawn from the author's personal experience as well as from the experiences of other lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender non-conforming, queer, questioning, intersex, and/or asexual (LGBTQIA ) patients, families, and hospice and palliative care professionals"--

Hospice and palliative care professionals are experts at caring for individuals and families experiencing serious or life-limiting illnesses. Not everyone feels safe seeking out their expertise, however: LGBTQIA+ people may be deterred from seeking support because of barriers—both overt and subtle—that hospice and palliative care programs and professionals erect through their policies and practices. This book is an accessible, expert guide to incorporating LGBTQIA-inclusive practices into end-of-life care. It equips both new and experienced hospice and palliative care professionals with the knowledge they need to ensure that all people receive high-quality care.

Kimberly D. Acquaviva surveys fundamental concepts and the latest clinical developments, integrating relatable anecdotes and poignant personal reflections. She discusses her own experience caring for her wife, Kathy, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2019. Unable to find a local hospice with an LGBTQIA-inclusive nondiscrimination statement, let alone one whose staff had been trained to provide nondiscriminatory care to LGBTQIA+ people, Kathy died at home six months later without hospice care.

Acquaviva offers clear, actionable strategies for palliative care and hospice physicians, physician associates, advanced-practice registered nurses, registered nurses, social workers, counselors, chaplains, and others. She also emphasizes how incorporating LGBTQIA-inclusive practices can transform work with every person receiving care. Anchored in the evidence and written in plain language, this book is the definitive guide for hospice and palliative care professionals seeking to deliver exceptional care to all the patients and families they serve.

This book is an accessible, expert guide to incorporating LGBTQIA-inclusive practices into end-of-life care.

A must-read for hospice and palliative care professionals. -- Dallas Ducar, president and CEO, Transhealth Acquavivas heartfelt book on LGBTQIA-inclusive hospice and palliative care not only provides actionable advice for health professionals but also touches the soul.
