Pharmacy Staff Perspectives on Alcohol and Medication Interaction Prevention Among Older Rural Adults.
Gerontology & Geriatric Medicine 2018 January
Older adults are at high risk for alcohol and medication interactions (AMI). Pharmacies have the potential to act as ideal locations for AMI education, as pharmacy staff play an important role in the community. This study examined the perspectives of pharmacy staff on AMI prevention programming messaging, potential barriers to and facilitators of older adult participation in such programming, and dissemination methods for AMI prevention information. Flyers, telephone calls, and site visits were used to recruit 31 pharmacy staff members who participated in semistructured interviews. A content analysis of interview transcriptions was conducted to identify major themes, categories, and subcategories. The main categories identified for AMI prevention messaging were Informational, Health Significance , and Recommendations . Within barriers to participation, the main categories identified were Health Illiteracy, Personal Attitudes , and Feasibility . The main categories identified for program facilitators were Understanding, Beneficial Consequences , and Practicality . Multimethod dissemination strategies were commonly suggested. This study found positive pharmacy staff perspectives for the planning and implementation of AMI prevention programming, and future development and feasibility testing of such programming in the pharmacy setting is warranted.
