Motivational Interviewing for Pharmacists
Many pharmacists counsel patients every day yet still face the same outcome: patients leave with accurate information and little change in behavior. Time is short, resistance appears quickly, and traditional advice often strengthens the very hesitation it aims to reduce. Medication nonadherence continues to drive significant clinical and economic costs, while most pharmacy communication training remains limited or difficult to apply at a busy counter.
This book shows pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and PharmD students how to use brief, collaborative conversations that fit real workflow. Readers learn the spirit of motivational interviewing, the core OARS micro-skills, a simple structure for two-to-five-minute encounters, and ready-to-use language for everyday adherence situations. The focus stays practical: what to say, when to say it, and how to keep the conversation respectful and effective without adding time to the shift.
What Makes This Book Different
Unlike broader texts written for multiple health professions, this guide centers on the pharmacy counter and clinic dispensing environment. It supplies concrete scripts, worksheets, technician openings, student practice guidance, and process measures that support daily use. High-stakes topics such as vaccine discussions, GLP-1 therapies, and opioid-related conversations receive specific attention, always within the constraints of ordinary pharmacy time.
This book is for readers who
Counsel patients in community or clinical pharmacy settings and want conversations that reduce resistance
Train or precept students and technicians and need shared, practical language
Feel the daily pressure of time, metrics, and repeated nonadherence
Want clear, usable skills rather than lengthy theory alone
Prefer realistic examples and ready phrases they can adapt immediately
If you want a clear, practical guide to brief motivational interviewing conversations that fit the pharmacy counter, this book offers a structured place to begin.
