Pharmacists can play a helpful role steering patients who are going through addiction or recovery toward healthy outcomes. That means knowing not just what tools are available, but also how to talk to the patient about their challenges. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration has released a collection of resources for National Recovery Month for you to use in your pharmacy, including educational and promotional materials, online tools to help patients find treatment, guides on respectful and destigmatizing language, and other resources.
