​​​​​​Summary

The NSW LGBTIQ+ Health Strategy marks a significant commitment in the history of the NSW Health system. This strategy provides direction to all NSW Health organisations and staff, so that collectively we can deliver the best care to LGBTIQ+ people and work with them to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. This includes the health, wellbeing and safety of our health staff who are LGBTIQ+.

The strategy's vision is for LGBTIQ+ people in NSW to receive high quality, safe, inclusive and responsive healthcare that delivers outcomes that matter to them. The strategic priorities for our system over the next five years are:

  • deliver high quality, safe, inclusive and responsive care
  • respond to the health needs of transgender and gender diverse people in NSW
  • respond to the health needs of intersex people in NSW
  • capture data on sexuality, gender and intersex variations at the point-of-care and population level.
