The role of medication history at pharmacies has increased as a means to realize improved pharmaceutical care. Furthermore, the education guidelines of clinical clerkship for pharmaceutical education were revised in 2013 to provide better clinical training. The principal aim of the new guidelines was to allow the students to experience medication management, such as medication counseling and the recording of medication histories, frequently. In these circumstances, pharmacy students should acquire, to some degree, the cardinal skills of medication management by the initiation of their clinical clerkship. In this study, we established methods to quantitively evaluate the ability of the medication management at pharmacies. Additionally, we conducted the same practice with pharmacists engaged in pharmacies for less than three years to compare their ability with that of the students. In the practice, the participants presumed the patient characteristics and disease state from a scenario and created the medication counseling phrases from a simulated prescription. Subsequently, they recorded a medication history electronically following the SOAP format. The results showed the scores of the pharmacists regarding medication counseling phrases and medication history descriptions were much higher than those of the students. In contrast, the scores of presumption skills in terms of patient characteristics and state were equivalent. To enhance clinical skills, education programs should include problem-oriented system exercises to integrate various factors of patients’ characteristics as well as to build up student knowledge. This study also suggests that the modification of an electronic medication history system might be efficacious for pharmaceutical education.
