Bonus episode for Transgender Awareness Week.

Liz and Jesse are joined by Bec Cooley, a social worker who is the Gender Services Coordinator at RBWH. Bec gives us a clinician's crash course to help provide more supportive and aware care to Trans and Gender Diverse patients and be a better ally at work and in the community.

Bec's 5 things: 

1. Know what gender diversity is and what it means.

2. Pronouns, Names and Language.

3. Don’t make assumptions.

4. Only ask gender-related questions if/when clinically relevant.

5. You actually have a duty and responsibility as an employee to be inclusive.

6. (This one is for life) Be a good ally!
