The PQA Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Resource Guide profiles 20 real-world SDOH services that are promising for improving the quality and safety of medication use. Created by the Pharmacy Quality Alliance (PQA), the guide focuses on SDOH screenings, referrals and interventions conducted by or involving pharmacists or pharmacies.

Embedded in the community as the most accessible healthcare providers, pharmacists are uniquely positioned to connect individuals to SDOH resources. The guide covers services that address at least one of seven SDOH barriers:
• Cost of Medications
• Cultural or Literacy Barriers
• Decent, Safe and Affordable Housing
• Food Security
• Screening for Unmet Needs
• Social Isolation
• Transportation
