LGBTQ+ diversity is welcomed and celebrated at St Vincent’s

St Vincent’s is committed to providing a safe and inclusive healthcare experience for people of diverse sexualities and genders. We are proud of our history of establishing St Vincent’s Ward 17 South, the first dedicated HIV AIDS ward in Australia, and we are proud to continue our legacy of providing inclusive, responsive and non-judgmental healthcare to a broad and diverse community. Our location and our history make us uniquely placed to provide care to LGBTQ+ people and we take pride in being an active member of our vibrant local community.

We encourage any person who does not feel we have met this commitment to contact us so that we can make the changes required to deliver our vision of safe and inclusive care for all people.

For more information for LGBTQ+ patients, see page 5 of our Patient Information Booklet.

 We are a safe and inclusive workplace for LGBTQ+ staff. Watch St Vincent's Pride Network, friends and allies at Mardi Gras 2024
