Mental Health in the Pharmacy Part 1 | Cardinal Health™ Counter Talk™ Podcast

The month of May is observed as Mental Health Awareness Month. In the first episode of a two episode mini series, join us for a conversation about the unique challenges and rewards of working in a closed-door pharmacy serving the most vulnerable populations. In this episode, we speak with Joan Wissinger, a pharmacist with 25 years of experience serving the mentally ill and homeless in Columbus, Ohio. Joan shares her personal experiences, the importance of empathy and compassion in patient care, and practical advice for pharmacists working in retail settings. Learn how to identify patients at risk, advocate for their needs, and create a more supportive environment for those struggling with mental health.
