3 Co-TEAM: A logic model for pharmacy health coaching among substance use disorders patients

ABSTRACT Background: Pharmacy health coaching on various chronic diseases has been widely used with promising results. Drug addiction is a chronic disease, however, the intervention model of pharmacy health coaching in these patients has not been previously reported. Objective: Developing a logic model for pharmacy health coaching among substance use disorders patients that can be used by community pharmacists as a tool to support development, innovation, monitoring, and evaluating the performance of pharmacy health coaching. Methods: A logic model used to develop an intervention model of pharmacy health coaching following a process consisting of four steps: (1) a literature review to identify key values, scope, delivery & tools, the content of the session, and competencies for pharmacy health coaching; (2) focus groups discussion (FGD) to obtain information from specific sources and discuss the results of the literature review; (3) developing a logic model based on the finding from steps 1 and 2; and (4) FGD to discuss and fine-tune the model. Results: A logic model was successfully constructed and generated 3 Co-TEAM models for pharmacy health coaching among substance use disorders patients. The 3 Co-TEAM consists of communication, collaboration, consultation, training, education, attitude, and motivational interviewing. Conclusion: The 3 Co-TEAM model for pharmacy health coaching provides steps to implement this service in an objective, organized and comprehensive manner. The proposed model can function as a tool that provides guidance and reference for pharmacists in the process of implementing pharmacy health coaching among substance use disorders patients and collaborating with other health professionals.
