Trans Healthcare in Ireland
Tomorrow is the last day to have your voice heard in this research.
My name is Sinéad Hodgins.
I am a psychologist in clinical training with NUIG while working for the HSE. I have been involved in Transgender related research since 2016 and I am currently conducting research as part of my doctorate with people who identify as transgender/ have a transgender history who have or wish to engage in gender affirming medical intervention (hormones/surgery) and their experience of healthcare.
I am mainly looking at their experience of accessing trans-specific healthcare but also general healthcare and the impact of this on their mental health and quality of life.
I have ethical approval from National University Ireland, Galway and from TENI (Transgender Equality Network Ireland). I would be extremely grateful if you could share the link to my questionnaire and the poster that accompanies it on your social media (Twitter/Facebook etc.) or with your members, as I am trying to get as many people’s perspectives and lived experiences as possible.
Gratefully yours,
Sinéad

Emer, a researcher and final year psychology student at NUI Galway is very interested to find out more about sexual orientation, PDA (public displays of affection) and feelings about romantic relationships.
"This study is important due to the lack of diverse and inclusive psychological research. If you are happy to take part, you would be a part of important research that is trying to fill the gap that LGBT+ members often experience within scientific research and literature." - Emer
