Policy

At Academy Medical Centre we all work for a world where all people can enjoy their rights, and feel safe and confident of the services and support we offer.

We believe LGBT equality is essential to human rights which are integrated into our work. Upholding and advancing human rights is everyone's responsibility.

Our values of being person-centred, showing respect and fairness help us to think about how we apply these rights when we connect with other people through our work. We will continue to work with all stakeholders to improve awareness and understanding of LGBT issues which create better outcomes for people accessing our services, ensuring Equality, Diversity and Inclusion for all.

We have provided various online resources. While not exhaustive, they should provide some signposts. We also have a glossary.

The practice continues to review our policies, procedures and training opportunities to ensure we provide a helpful, supportive service. Suggestions are welcome - please send your feedback to us or contact our patient participation group.
