Trans sex offenders can go on women’s wards, hospitals advise
The Times says male-born sex offenders who identify as women can be treated on female-only NHS wards after a risk assessment, some hospital trusts have told staff.
Devon, Oxford and Nottinghamshire hospitals have said that a criminal history should be part of an assessment when placing trans patients but that it should not prevent admission in all cases.
Some NHS trusts have issued guidance stating that people should be admitted to wards based on the gender they identify with and can choose which shower and lavatory facilities to use, according to The Daily Telegraph.
