- Abstract: In October 2020, we started the "Marutto Inclusive Hospital Implementation Project" with volunteers. The purpose of the project is to create a medical institution where "everyone can feel at ease." Currently, the main activity of the project is to make visible what medical institutions can do as SOGI-conscious healthcare providers. This paper describes the contents of the "Implementation Support Tool," a resource to support such efforts, the results of its use, and specific actions. We hope that this report will serve as a catalyst for healthcare professionals working in busy clinical settings to begin SOGI-conscious initiatives, and to make their medical institutions LGBTQs-friendly and safe.
