4. Description Abstract

Objective: This scoping review aimed to explore available literature on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of healthcare professionals on providing care to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) community as well as the experiences and perspectives of the LGBT community on their healthcare.
Material and Methods: The following electronic databases were searched in December 2020: MEDLINE/PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, ProQuest, SCOPUS, and Embase for English-language publications; from 2010 to 2020.
Results: This review included 59 studies that were selected from 5,318 studies. This review revealed that there was an increase in publications regarding this topic across the world. This review identified four themes: (I) the current healthcare landscape for the LGBT community, (II) facilitators of and (III) barriers to healthcare access and utilization among the LGBT community, and (IV) varied facets of healthcare of relevance for LGBT healthcare users – communication, space, education and training, research, and policies.
Conclusion: This review serves as a valuable compass for future researchers seeking areas for deeper exploration and understanding. Nevertheless, the limitations of the study underscore the significance of exercising caution when interpreting its findings concerning challenges within LGBT healthcare.
