Does my pharmacy still need to meet the requirements of the AIMS Program in 2026?

Yes. Pharmacies are still expected to meet the requirements of the AIMS Program during the 2026 transition of the program, including recording, documenting, analyzing, and sharing learnings about the incident.

If a pharmacy has not yet made a decision on which medication incident reporting platform they will use, then it must record medication incidents locally until such time that it has begun to use a chosen platform that meets program requirements. A template form will be made available on the OCP website as an option for pharmacies to record medication incidents.

Pharmacies that have decided to choose a new platform should review medication incident reporting solutions that meet the College’s criteria and sign up with the platform of their choice by January 1, 2027.
