Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS) are consulting on their draft standards for gender identity healthcare services for adults and young people

Although community pharmacies and primary care services are mentioned throughout the draft standards, our members are clearly not gender identity healthcare services and HIS do not regulate our sector’s day to day business. However, feedback from our members suggests that responding to this consultation would be worthwhile, in the main to highlight some of the challenges that are being faced in practice.

The consultation documents can be found here, with our response laid out below.
