The Clinical Resource Hub (CRH) is a repository of clinical and administrative staff that serve Veterans Affairs facilities within a VISN. Staff within the CRH are expected to provide interprofessional services to VISN facilities that are underserved or experiencing gaps in clinicians due to the inability to match provider supply with demand. Services provided by CRH staff are conducted via multiple modalities, including virtual and in-person care. The Clinical Pharmacist Practitioner (CPP) serves as a provider with prescribing privileges as outlined in the individual's Scope of Practice for Clinical Pharmacist Practitioner (CPP) in Mental Health. The primary responsibility of the CPP is the provision of evidence-based pharmaceutical care services through both direct and indirect interaction with patients and providers. The CPP promotes and manages drug therapy based on current clinical knowledge that is consistent with policies established at the national, VISN, and local levels. The CPP functions as part of the VISN 6 TMH Hub team and is most effective when assigned to a panel of patients to support continuity of care.
