Purpose: People who are transgender or gender diverse (PTGD) often experience difficulties navigating the health care system due to a variety of factors such as lack of knowledgeable and/or culturally competent clinicians, discrimination, and structural and/or socioeconomic barriers. We sought to determine whether a peer health navigator service in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan helped connect transgender and gender-diverse clients and health care practitioners (HCPs) to resources, and how this service changed their health care experiences.
Methods: Semistructured interviews were conducted with 9 clients and 9 HCPs.

This article reflects on the concepts of health, well-being, gender, and dignity when providing nursing care to older adults, focusing on their wisdom and the phenomena that can affect their health or improve their quality of life. These concepts are analyzed based on the current health conditions of older adults and their needs, on the perspectives of authors in this field of research, and on Patricia Benner's philosophy: the integration of science, clinical wisdom, and ethics in nursing practice. Furthermore, this article aims at contributing to the health, well-being, gender, and dignity of older adults, despite the discrimination that they may face, as well as to the reality of nursing practice.

Denial policies are a form of structural stigma that could impede access to healthcare for sexual and gender minority (SGM) populations, particularly SGM young adults. This study describes SGM university students' response to policies permitting healthcare providers to deny care based on their religious beliefs.
