RESUMO
Background: Pharmacists are well trained, readily accessible health care professionals (HCPs) who practice in a variety of inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. Observations: As part of the interdisciplinary team, pharmacists can help address HCP shortages. Pharmacists currently are providing mental health collaborative practice services at US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities. Conclusions: Collaborative practice services can be expanded within and outside the VA by using pharmacists to increase access to care and improve outcomes.
