Summary

PHOENIx community pharmacy-based pilot randomised controlled trial.

To undertake a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) to assess the feasibility of conducting a larger, definitive trial assessing an integrated clinical pharmacist / homeless third sector intervention (PHOENIx) delivered in a community pharmacy setting. The pilot RCT will test recruitment, retention, acceptability, trial procedures and potential future implementability and scalability of the intervention.

Documentation

People experiencing homelessness (PEH) have complex health and social care needs. They have 7 different health problems on average and most die in their early 40s. PEH readily access community pharmacies but community pharmacies are not formally integrated in care pathways involving case finding, assessment, treatment, or referral. PHOENIx is a new model of care involving a pharmacist and third sector worker outreaching to PEH. Feasibility work shows promising quantitative and qualitative outcomes.
