Objectives: This scoping review aimed to synthesize research on the health experiences of LGBTQ+ people living with dementia (PLWD) and their caregivers, and the impact of health policies on this population.
Methods: Six databases were searched for research studies and policy literature. Titles, abstracts, and full texts were reviewed by a three-member team. Data was extracted and thematically analyzed. Feedback from 7 LGBTQ+ adults was collected through a community consultation session.
Results: A total of 9257 unique research and 945 policy citations were identified, of which 60 research and 19 policy papers were reviewed. Nine research studies and ten policy papers met eligibility criteria. Themes emerged through the analysis of research findings, the community listening session, and policy findings.
Discussion: Future work needs to disentangle the impact of policies on the health experiences of this population. Dementia-specific and LGBTQ+ inclusive services and policies are needed to address growing health disparities.
