Pharmacists as Health Educators and Risk Communicators in the Prevention of Prostate Cancer

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine if and how pharmacists can play a significant part in the prevention of prostate cancer. The study is divided into three phases. Phase 1 (Year 1) involved the identification of community pharmacists who are willing to serve as health educators on prostate cancer in the community-pharmacy setting. Phase II is the design, pilot testing, and evaluation of a prostate cancer education and communication program that will be used to educate pharmacists on prostate cancer and how this information should be communicated to the public.
