    Abstract: The Bloom Program, which began as a demonstration project, is an ongoing community pharmacy–based mental illness and addictions program funded by the government of Nova Scotia. To be eligible to offer the Bloom Program, interested pharmacists were required to complete a 9-part application on behalf of their pharmacies. A process evaluation was conducted to inform future program implementation changes of program components, including the application process. Methods: Qualitative interviews from 24 pharmacists were inductively analyzed to determine the challenges and opportunities in the program’s application process. Results: Key and impactful components of the application process included training, providing a mental health and addictions resource centre within the pharmacy and completing outreach activities with local mental health and addictions services and support organizations. The training content and format for the program was highly valued. Community outreach to local mental health and addictions resources, and other health care resources in the community, was particularly valuable in supporting patient navigation of the health care system and extending the pharmacists’ networks. Components of the application process were challenging for many pharmacists but were beneficial personally and professionally. Dedicated resources (e.g., time and staffing) are required for the efficient completion of the application process. Conclusion: Pharmacists viewed the Bloom Program application process as intensive yet necessary and relevant for preparing to deliver the Program. The demonstration project process evaluation was essential for elucidating the strengths of the application process and, importantly, identifying areas for improvement.

    The patient experience in a community pharmacy mental illness and addictions program
    SAGE Publications ; 2019

    Abstract: The Bloom Program was designed to enhance pharmacists’ care of people with lived experience of mental illness and addictions in Nova Scotia. The Program’s demonstration period was from September 2014 to December 2016 and included a qualitative evaluation of the patient experience. Methods: Patients were recruited for individual interviews through Bloom Program pharmacies. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed following Braun and Clarke’s 6-step approach for thematic analysis. Results: Ten patients were interviewed between May and June 2016. Ten themes were determined through data analysis and included medication management, accessing pharmacists in a new way, providing social support, bridging service gaps, providing interim care, reducing financial barriers, navigation and advocacy, holistic approaches, empowerment through knowledge and awareness and collaboration. Discussion: Pharmacists expectedly provided medication management activities to patients for both physical and mental health concerns in the Bloom Program. Many activities conducted with Bloom Program patients fell outside of dispensing roles and medication management. These activities, such as social support, triage, navigation and increasing access, which were highly valued by patients, are poorly measured and assessed in pharmacy practice research. Conclusion: Participants in the Bloom Program reported the significant contributions of pharmacists and pharmacy teams in their overall health and wellness. Future evaluations of interventions like the Bloom Program should include measurement of constructs valued by patients and also consider impacts on inequalities and inequities. Pharmacy practice researchers can benefit from other research and evaluation being conducted for primary care interventions.

    SAGE Publications ; 2015

    Abstract: Community pharmacists care for and support people with lived experience of mental illness in their communities. We developed a program called More Than Meds to facilitate enhancing capacity of community pharmacists’ roles in mental health care. Methods: We conducted a qualitative study and used a directed content analysis with application of the Theoretical Domains Framework as part of our underlying theory of behaviour change and our analytic framework. Results: Ten interviews ( n = 6 pharmacists, n = 4 community members) were conducted with participants from the More Than Meds program. Three key themes were identified from the experiences of More Than Meds participants: networking and bridging, stigma, and expectations and permissions. The most frequently coded domains in the data from the Theoretical Domains Framework were social/professional role, skills, beliefs about capabilities, knowledge and environmental context and resources. Conclusions: The More than Meds Program enabled community pharmacists to increase their capabilities, opportunities and motivation in providing mental health care and support. Involving community pharmacists together with people with lived experience of mental illness was identified as an innovative component of the program.

    A scoping review of weight bias by community pharmacists towards people with obesity and mental illness
    SAGE Publications ; 2016

    Abstract: Community pharmacists are accessible health care professionals who are increasingly offering weight management programs. People living with serious mental illness have markedly higher rates of obesity and associated illness outcomes than the general population, providing pharmacists who are interested in offering weight management services with an identifiable patient subgroup with increased health needs. Issues with stigma within obesity and mental illness care are prevalent and can lead to inequities and reduced quality of care. Methods: We conducted a scoping review to map and characterize the available information from published and grey literature sources regarding community pharmacists and weight bias towards obese people with lived experience of mental illness. A staged approach to the scoping review was used. Results: Six articles and 6 websites were abstracted after we removed duplicates and applied our inclusion and exclusion criteria. The published studies that we found indicated that pharmacists and pharmacy students do demonstrate implicit and explicit weight bias. Conclusions: Very limited research is available regarding weight bias in pharmacists and stigma towards people with obesity, and we found no information on these phenomena relating to people with lived experience of mental illness. Investigations are needed to characterize the extent and nature of anti-fat bias and attitudes by pharmacists and the consequences of these attitudes for patient care.
