Abstract

Objective: The Bridging the Gap Between Physical and Mental Illness in Community Pharmacy ("PharMIbridge") randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to test the effectiveness of a pharmacist-led support service in improving medication adherence, and the physical and mental health of people living with severe and persistent mental illness compared to a standard medication review service. Method: Using the six-step intervention mapping (IM) framework, this paper describes the development and content of the "PharMIbridge" pharmacist training programme, an integral part of the RCT implementation, and continuous adaptations made to the process to keep pace with the evolving severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic in Australia. A Training Working Group comprising health educators, practitioners, mental health consumers and researchers, refined the programme objectives and assisted with developing content and troubleshooting issues related to training delivery for pharmacists randomised to the RCT intervention arm. Results: A 2-day training programme was developed, which included Mental Health First Aid, simulated patient role-plays, and four pre-recorded modules using lectures, demonstration case vignettes, role-play activities and discussion. The programme, co-facilitated by project team members and mentors (pharmacist and consumer educators), aims to enhance pharmacists' mental health literacy, skills and confidence and empower them to engage with this vulnerable population using a strengths-based approach. Pre- and post-training questionnaires and interviews will be used to evaluate the impact of the "PharMIbridge" training programme. Conclusion: The systematic stepwise method provided by the IM framework highlights the solution-focused approach adopted by the project team and characteristics including adaptability and resilience which enabled training development and implementation across four Australian regions during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Abstract

Goal planning is a central intervention in mental healthcare, focused on changing behaviours and supporting service users to adapt to and manage their illnesses. However, there is currently limited understanding of the types of goals being planned, the experiences of service users and practitioners, or the effectiveness of goal planning as an intervention in mental healthcare, particularly within community pharmacy settings. This doctoral research responds to the gap in literature and knowledge by investigating how goal planning was used in a community pharmacist-led intervention to support the health and wellbeing of service users with a lived experience of severe and persistent mental illnesses (SPMIs). Using the Bridging the Gap between Physical and Mental Illness in Community Pharmacy (PharMIbridge) Randomised Control Trial (RCT) data, this dissertation draws on insights from a pragmatic, mixed method study that addressed the research questions through four Phases, including a systematic literature review, qualitative coding of the PharMIbridge goals, an evaluation of the PharMIbridge goal adherence to the SMART goal model, and qualitative analysis of PharMIbridge service user and pharmacist participant interviews.
