While there may be slight differences in the scope of practice of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in each province and territory, their core roles are the same across Canada. Pharmacy educators, pharmacy regulators, pharmacy professionals and the public all benefit from a common understanding of the practice standards for the profession, which articulate what can be expected of pharmacy professionals. To this end, NAPRA has redeveloped the model standards of practice (MSOPs) for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to be implemented as seen fit by its member pharmacy regulatory authorities (PRAs) across Canada.
A quick reference guide that includes a summary of the domains and standards from the full document is also available.
