A World-First Quality Framework for LGBTIQ Inclusion in Healthcare

Rainbow Tick Accreditation is the national framework to help health and human services organisations become safe and inclusive for the LGBTIQ community.

Challenges of the LGBTIQA+ Community in Healthcare
A recent published report in Western Australia reveals ongoing disparities in health delivery and outcomes for the local LQBTIQA+ community using mainstream public healthcare services. It highlights significant gaps in access, quality of care, and overall health outcomes, underscoring a broader issue that needs to be addressed on a national scale. 

The report identifies a range of action points including more targeted strategies that address the specific needs of LGBTIQA+ individuals in healthcare. Implementing these strategies is crucial for fostering a more inclusive and equitable healthcare system for all.

Rainbow Tick is the Gold Standard Framework for Healthcare Organisation
ACHS is proud to be an independent provider for Rainbow Tick Accreditation with standards developed by Rainbow Health Australia. The Rainbow Tick is a quality framework that helps health and human services organisations show that they are safe, inclusive and affirming services and employers for the LGBTIQ community.
