Fostering end-of-life planning among older LGBT adults: The development of the British Columbia LGBT End-of-Life Resource Inventory [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The Fostering End-of-Life Conversations, Community and Care among older LGBT adults project was funded under the 2013 TVN Catalyst Research Program. The research team comprised faculty and research assistants from six Canadian and one U.S. university. In addition, over 20 community organizations from across the country partnered with the team in the implementation of this study. Focus groups were held with LGBT older adults and service providers in Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax between August 2014 and March 2015. This paper is focused on results from the data collected at the Vancouver site. A total of four focus groups were held at this location: gay and bisexual men (n=15); lesbian and bisexual women (n=12); transgender (n=9); and service providers (n=7). The focus groups were recorded, the tapes transcribed and analyzed for themes. This analysis provided the impetus for development of The LGBT End-of-Life Conversations website and The British Columbia LGBT End-of-Life Resource Inventory, the subject of this paper.
