The role of pharmacists towards clients with psychosocial problems.

This project is a follow-up to the 'Mask-19' initiative, a collaborative initiative between the Flemish Pharmacists' Network and the Centres for General Welfare Work, which during the first lockdown period in 2020 made the pharmacy sector a point of contact for help with welfare issues. Project #CAVASa will now continue this by providing training, tips and other support material for the day-to-day practice of local home pharmacists to recognise psychosocial problems, treat them discreetly and refer them to appropriate help. Researchers from UAntwerpen and KU Leuven will look at whether and how pharmacists make referrals, and what things are needed to optimise this.
