People who inty as lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr (LGBT) have specific health needs.

While recent South Ain polici regnise the need for providg LGBT specific health re, no curricula for teachg about LGBT health related issu exist South Ain health scienc faculti. This study aimed to terme the extent to which LGBT health related ntent is tght the Universy of Cape Town’s medil curriculum. A curriculum mappg exercise was nducted through an onle survey of all amic staff at the UCT health scienc faculty, termg LGBT health related ntent, pedagogil methodology and asssment. 127 amics, across 31 divisns and rearch uns the Faculty of Health Scienc, rpond to the survey, of which 93 pleted the qutnnaire. Ten tght some ntent related to LGBT health the MBChB curriculum. No LGBT health related ntent was tght the allied health scienc curricula. The MBChB curriculum provid no opportuny for stunts to challenge their own attus towards LGBT patients, and key LGBT health topics such as safer sex, mental health, substance abe and adolcent health were not addrsed. At prent, UCTs health scienc curricula do not aquately addrs LGBT specific health issu. Where LGBT health related ntent is tght the MBChB curriculum, is largely discretnary, unsystematic and not rporated to the overarchg stcture. Coordated iativ to tegrate LGBT health related ntent to all health scienc curricula should be supported, and follow an approach that challeng stunts to velop profsnal attus and behavur ncerng re for patients om LGBT backgrounds, as well as providg them wh specific LGBT health knowledge. Edutg health profsns stunts on the health needs of LGBT people is sential to improvg this populatn’s health by providg petent and non-judgmental re.
