Thesis advisor: Susan Kelly-Weeder<br>Background: Stigma, discrimination, and victimization are common occurrences in the lives of TGGD persons (e.g. non-binary, genderqueer, agender, and other non-cisgender identities) in the U.S., including occurrences in healthcare settings. Additionally, TGGD people in the U.S. experience numerous disparities related to physical health, mental health, substance use, and health risk behaviors.

Bakgrund och problemformulering: Transpersoner är historiskt sett en utsatt grupp som avviker från normer och strukturer i samhället. Genom förnyade och nystiftade lagar arbetas det i Sverige för att transpersoner ska få den vård som krävs för en god hälsa. Utan god hälsa och vård kan lidande uppstå i form av skam och otrygghet. Kunskap är en förutsättning för god vård. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att belysa sjuksköterskans bemötande av transpersoner i vårdande kontext genom att beskriva sjuksköterskans attityder gentemot och kunskap om personer med transidentitet.

Abstract:
For many years trans people have been treated as suffering from some pathology, proposing various curative treatments as a solution to their alleged health problem. However, recent studies show that gender identity of people is a very personal and diverse characteristic so must be protected. In this article, the author explains how an understanding of gender identity that is respectful of human rights involves rethinking the State’s view of transgender people. This change of perspective requires discarding the pathological vision and opting for a system that will equip them with the necessary
