Article Synopsis
- Recovery Colleges (RCs) are special communities that help people recover from mental health issues through learning, but their success in different cultures is not well studied.
- Researchers looked at 169 RCs from various countries to see how cultural differences affect how well they operate.
- They found that RCs work best in cultures that are more individualistic and indulgent, but it's important to consider other cultures to make these programs better for everyone around the world.
Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health problems increased as access to mental health services reduced. Recovery colleges are recovery-focused adult education initiatives delivered by people with professional and lived mental health expertise. Designed to be collaborative and inclusive, they were uniquely positioned to support people experiencing mental health problems during the pandemic.

Normalization process theory (NPT) constructs help explain how interventions are integrated into practice and include: 'coherence' (understanding), 'cognitive participation' (what promotes engagement), 'collective action' (integration with existing systems), and 'reflexive monitoring' (evaluation).
Aim: To use NPT to investigate the integration of pharmacist IP in CP.
