Spectrum Prime (50+)
2SLGBTQIA+ Friendly Visiting
Spectrum Prime is a discussion group for 2SLGBTQIA+ adults aged 50+.
We see things differently as we age. Priorities shift. Social circles change. Please join us for a social and discussion group for older 2SLGBTQIA+ identified adults. This group meets on the first and third Wednesdays of the month.
Spectrum's Friendly Visiting program is designed to decrease social isolation and increase sense of belonging in the local 2SLGBTQIA+ community. If you are a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and would like to receive visits from volunteers please connect with Kita at kita@ourspectrum.com
If you are interested in volunteering to visit 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors please check out the posting here.
This best practice guideline (BPG) is a comprehensive document that provides guidance and resources for
evidence-based nursing practice. It is not intended to be a manual or “how-to” guide; rather, it is a tool to guide
best practices and enhance decision making for nurses, health-service organizations, care providers, and other community stakeholders.
