Abstract
Background: People living with severe and persistent mental illnesses are more likely to experience co-morbid health conditions. Health-related behavior change can be promoted by the use of goal planning within community pharmacy settings. Objectives: To trial and refine a recently developed taxonomy to categorize goals co-designed between community pharmacists and people living with severe and persistent mental illnesses. This study also compared the data to the previously published taxonomy data to determine if the taxonomy could be applied across a range of mental health conditions. Methods: The published goal taxonomy was refined using data from a cluster randomized controlled trial (PharMIbridge). Community pharmacists provided an individualized support service using goal planning with people living with severe and persistent mental illnesses. Goals were categorized using the existing taxonomy and inconsistencies were used to modify and refine the taxonomy. Additionally, participant characteristics and categorization of goals were compared with results from the previous study. Results: 512 goals were reported by 158 consumer participants and categorized into five domains that included a diverse range of health behaviors (e.g., relationships, diet). Minor refinements to the taxonomy were made by replacing, adding or removing categories/descriptors. Conclusions: Significant overlap between the goals of participants and the existing taxonomy was found, supporting the application of the taxonomy across different mental health conditions.
