Abstract
Nurses are asked to care for all types of individuals. Many times nurses will care for a lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered (LGBT) individual. The ability to integrate LGBT issues within nursing curriculum and nursing education is necessary in order to address the health disparities that this community often faces. Utilizing cultural safety can assist with this educational process. This paper focuses on ways to integrate ideas into curriculum as well as for providing a safe classroom in order to facilitate learning in regard to LGBT individuals. Within this process nursing faculty as well as nursing students must face their own biases regarding LGBT individuals in order to provide the most holistic care possible.
