Background: <\/b>Documentation of pharmaceutical care activities is a vital component of pharmaceutical care. Documentation is the primary method of demonstrating value within an organized healthcare system.<\/span><\/p>\n

Objectives:<\/b> The study assessed the documentation of pharmaceutical care activities among community pharmacists in Ibadan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Methods:<\/b> This was a cross-sectional study carried out between August and October, 2013, where pretested structured questionnaires were administered to community pharmacists in Ibadan. The questionnaire <\/span>assessed the documentation of pharmaceutical care activities among the participants. The data obtained was <\/span>analyzed with descriptive statistics like frequencies and percentages using SPSS version 20. The level of <\/span>significance was set at p < 0.05.<\/span><\/p>\n

Results:<\/b> Twenty-two (33.8%) respondents documented their pharmaceutical care interventions while 43 (66.2%) did not document it; 8 (18.2%) respondents employed the use of computerized documentation. Only <\/span>2 (3.1%) respondents used a standard method of PC documentation; however, only one (1.5%) of the 3 <\/span>respondents could specify the standard documentation format that he used. Fifteen respondents (25.0%) <\/span>document referrals while 50 (76.9%) do not document referrals. Twenty-seven (41.5%) respondents <\/span>documented and reported adverse drug reactions while 38 (58.5%) respondents did not. Eighteen <\/span>respondents (30.0%) documented interventions made on drug therapy problems while 47(72.3%) <\/span>respondents did not.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/b> Almost all the community pharmacists in Ibadan were aware of pharmaceutical care concept. The level of documentation among community pharmacists in Ibadan was very low; however, they were <\/span>willing to undergo training on the pharmaceutical care concept.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keywords:<\/b> Documentation, pharmaceutical care, pharmacists, Ibadan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
