Enhancing LGBTQ+ Cultural Competence in Dental and Pharmacy Students through an Interprofessional Model

Posted: January 10, 2025
An interprofessional model was implemented to enhance LGBTQ+ cultural competence among dental and pharmacy students, aiming to address disparities in healthcare access for the LGBTQ+ community. The study involved three educational interventions and assessed cultural competence using surveys and evaluations. While cultural humility improved post-intervention for dental students, the differences were not statistically significant. However, significant improvements were observed in interprofessional team dynamics, roles, responsibilities, and patient-centered approach. Students valued the program's impact on LGBTQ+ health understanding and inclusive care.
