Popis: Nurse practitioner (NP) and NP student perceptions of adult lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) health needs were qualitatively explored. One overreaching theme, “We need to do better. We have a lot to do,” and four key themes were identified: (1) same basic health needs as straight people; (2) a little more risk, a little more help, a little extra care; (3) breaking down that trusting, honest provider relationship; and (4) society sucks and social media and politics play a major role. Results support the need for future research exploring NP and NP student understanding of LGBT health needs.
