ABSTRACT

In the 2015 United States Trans Survey, trans people overwhelmingly indicated that training health-care providers about trans health is an urgent policy priority within the US. This literature review examines the types of educational training interventions health professional schools have developed from 2015–2020 focused on trans health. This review revealed that the fields of medicine and interprofessional education have created the majority of interventions, which tend to increase students’ knowledge, comfort, and confidence working with trans patients. Schools of counseling, social work, and public health are not adequately developing curriculum and interventions that prepare students in health professional schools to work with trans people. Recommendations include schools of medicine developing more faculty expertise in trans medicine, professional organizations requiring trans content on licensure exams, state licensure boards requiring continuing education in trans health, and health professional schools increasing the use of trans standardized patients and trans panels.

摘要

在 2015 年美国跨性别调查中，绝大多数跨性别者表示，对医疗保健提供者进行跨性别健康培训是美国的一项紧迫政策重点。这篇文献综述考察了健康专业学校从 2015 年到 2020 年开发的侧重于跨性别健康的教育培训干预类型。这篇综述表明，医学和跨专业教育领域创造了大多数干预措施，这些干预措施往往会增加学生与跨性别患者一起工作的知识、舒适度和信心。咨询、社会工作和公共卫生学校没有充分开发课程和干预措施，让卫生专业学校的学生为与跨性别者合作做好准备。建议包括医学院在跨医学方面培养更多的教师专业知识，
