The HSE has admitted that transgender healthcare is ‘limited’ and is ‘not meeting people’s full range of needs’.
This is a very sympathetic article for once. I was not expecting that from The Journal! It mentioned a lot about how invasive the questions were from the NGS, though I’ve also heard from other people (adults around 30 or older) that they were refused care if their parents didn’t attend the appointment with them. Nonbinary people as well as those with autism or ADHD are also frequently denied care. I would’ve liked if they spoke to any trans masc people in their investigation but for such a supportive article in these times I will take it.
The Journal Investigates heard from transgender people pushed into accessing healthcare outside the official channels
Some great additions in this follow up piece!
The Journal Investigates spoke to transgender people who moved to Ireland and couldn’t continue the care they received abroad
Another great piece from The Journal about trans healthcare in Ireland!
