The mission of the BestCare4LGBTIQ+ project is to support the development of LGBTQI+ friendly older care services, providing tools, awareness-raising materials and learning resources to home care and residential care services managers and staff to ensure a better adapted, more respectful, and inclusive care for LGBTQI+ older people living in care facilities.

From the beggining |
Where we are now |
The project takes over REC project Best4OlderLGBTI which aimed to develop tools and strategies to raise awareness among the general public and some selected target groups about sexuality in old age and older LGBTI, to contrast ageism and discrimination through challenging stereotypes.

BestCare4LGBTQI+ is complementary to this previous work, as it makes a step forward from awareness to action, supporting professionals in residential care as well as in home care services in finding and applying strategies to make services inclusive and accessible to all.
