A guide to best practice in health and social care provision for transgender people with disabilities and chronic and mental illnesses
The definitive guide on providing support to transgender and non-binary people with physical disabilities and/or illnesses and mental illnesses. It provides advice on transitioning with a disability, hospital care, institutional care, at-home care, sex-specific service provision, data management and record-keeping, and fertility and reproduction.
This is an excellent and comprehensive book for professionals at any level involved in the management or delivery of clinical and social care services. Read it before you encounter your first transgender or non-binary service user, with or without disabilities, and you won't go wrong. -- Christine Burns MBE, Author and Transgender Activist
This book is a joy to read. Clear, straightforward, comprehensive: it sets out its stall with an economy and directness I can only aspire to. From trans basics (about which I already knew a lot) to the specifics and health and disability issues for trans people, this is an essential guide for anyone working in this area - from medics to social workers to teachers and policy makers - or just wishing to know more. -- Jane Fae
