    AbstractThis is a descriptive and evaluative report regarding a clinical pharmacy residency in-house on-call program that facilitates the provision of 24-hour clinical pharmacy consultative services within the emergency department. During the two-year evaluation period, clinical pharmacy residents completed 3.1 consultations per 14-hour call period. Additionally, greater than 90% of the clinical pharmacy recommendations were accepted and completely followed by physician cohorts. These consultations were usually solicited by internal medicine physicians within the emergency department, involved patient-specific drug therapy recommendations, and required about 100 minutes (mean per consultation) of the clinical pharmacist's time. Thus, clinical pharmacy consultative services can be a useful addition to health care within the emergency department in teaching hospitals.
