Transgender ward allocation in single-sex mental health wards: contemporary considerations.

CONCLUSION:: Transgender individuals experience an excess health burden and have difficulties that are poorly understood by many health practitioners. This is partly the result of both informational and institutional biases. Relevant legal frameworks, while supportive, are still to be translated into policy. We suggest a framework that canvasses the needs of various stakeholders and considers them equally in the decision-making process. PMID: 30474391 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
