The full interview with bonus material:
The celebrations associated with Pride Month are as diverse as the residents themselves. In this interview, the focus turns to two areas that may not be as high profile as others regarding Pride but are equally significant.
The first interview is with two representatives from Northumberland Hills Hospital. It is flying a Pride flag and creating a rainbow crosswalk at its main entrance. You will find out the significance of those two initiatives. But you will also learn how the hospital works to improve its relationships with the LGBTQ2+ community. Many studies show health care providers don’t always measure up when it comes to caring for these people. That is not just patients but also the staff. You will hear about the hospital’s ongoing efforts to improve those connections.
