Students used several filler words, long sentences, and a fast pace. A majority of students used teach back methods to identify patient understanding. Students expressed the need for more structured education and training in providing patient counseling for opioids and communicating with LEP patients. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacy students lack confidence and skills in communicating with LEP patients regarding opioid-specific risks, suggesting structured training is needed. INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to assess the impact of a mental health educational intervention on pharmacy students' confidence and comfortability when engaging in depression counseling. METHODS Third-year pharmacy students completed two 15-item rating scales addressing confidence and comfortability about depression. The intervention was 2.5 hours long and included a depression overview, consumer educator presentation, motivational interviewing, and case studies. Surveys were administered at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and three months post intervention. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and repeated measures analyses. RESULTS Of the 23 students who participated in the intervention, 12 (52.2%) completed the three-month follow-up. Confidence increased significantly (p less then 0.05) from 3.5 ± 0.5 to 4.1 ± 0.4 immediately post intervention and was sustained at three months post (3.9 ± 0.5). Similarly, comfortability increased significantly (p less then 0.05) from 3.6 ± 0.4 to 4.1 ± 0.5 immediately post and was sustained at three months post (4.1 ± 0.6). Cronbach's alphas ranged from 0.90 to 0.96. CONCLUSION Pharmacy students' depression counseling confidence and comfortability improved and was sustained after a 2.5-hour intervention with motivational interviewing, consumer
