ForwardTEST - Live Stream – May 14, 2020
NAPRA Standards (Non-Sterile Compounding): LP3 Network’s Comprehensive Approach to Achieving Compliance
Please note that the live stream will take place time according to Eastern Daylight Time.
In recent years, Canada’s National Association of Pharmacy Regulatory Authorities (NAPRA) published Model Standards for Pharmacy Compounding of Non-Sterile Preparations and the companion Guidance Document for Pharmacy Compounding of Non-Sterile Preparations. This program navigates through these new requirements.
During this blended learning program, participants will be guided through these standards of practice with an emphasis on how they can be practically implemented. The framework of this program is described by the following subsections:
- Regulatory framework
- Quality assurance program
- Risk management
- Verification program
- Personnel competency and compliance
- Property (facility, equipment, and technology) management
- Procedures in support of day-to-day operations
- Process development leading to approved master formulation records
- Master formulation record database management
- Compounding record and patient management
This program identifies suggested best practice recommendations, where applicable. The overarching goal of this program is to provide its audience with clear and concise practical tools that will enable them to achieve compliance in an efficient and effective manner. Through home study reading and live streaming presentations with engaging interactive exercises, participants will…
- Establish time managed goals to implement the standards of practice
- Perform drug and preparatory procedure risk assessments
- Relate a practice risk assessment to facility design, personal protective equipment and personnel training requirements
- Learn how to detail master formulation records and compounding records
- Document standard operating procedures
- Address competency and compliance requirements
In doing so, participants will be guided through a smooth transition to a new standard of practice, while continuing to manage and oversee current compounding operations.
Instructional Design and Method of Delivery
This is a blended learning program consisting of…
- Home study
- Live streaming with interactive exercises
- On-line learner assessment
Intended audience
Learning Objectives
FOR PHARMACISTS & PHARMACY TECHNICIANS
Learning objectives for this program will be based on a combination of three types of objectives as outlined by the Canadian Council on Continuing Education in Pharmacy:
Knowledge Measurement Objectives
- Identify elements of the current regulatory framework for compounding in Canada as it applies to Federal, Provincial/Territorial jurisdictional law, and standards of practice.
- Describe quality assurance, risk management, and verification program requirements outlined in the Guidance Document for Pharmacy Compounding of Non-sterile Preparations.
- Identify policy and procedure requirements that reflect the current model standards.
- Detail current requirements of master formulation and compounding records.
- Discuss approaches to ensure personnel safety, and the quality and safety of non-sterile preparations.
Reflective Assessment Objectives (integration of concepts and ideas)
- Apply and adapt standards of practice to best suit your compounding practice.
- Demonstrate the application and integration of a learned policy and procedure infrastructure into your practice.
- Differentiate competency assessments from compliance indicators.
- Integrate a best practice’s approach commensurate with the size, complexity, and risks associated specifically to your compounding practice.
Authentic Assessment Objectives (compounding practice performance-based)
- Develop a strategic action plan to manage the implementation of the standards of practice.

Mr. Didyk graduated from the University of Manitoba Faculty of Pharmacy in 2002 and immediately went to work as a Pharmacy Services Specialist for the Western Canada division of a national pharmacy provider. Mr. Didyk gained early experience in community pharmacy practice, and in 2005 his career evolved into the ownership and management of community health services. He developed health centres in the Winnipeg area that provided primary and ancillary healthcare services all under one roof. These clinics were pioneers in establishing solid patient outcomes through the use of electronic medical records. His efforts were noted in 2006 when he received the Young Leader in Pharmacy award from the Manitoba Society of Pharmacists.
Mr. Didyk has been a facilitator for sterile and non-sterile compounding programs since 2008. His skills and expertise in compounding have made him nationally recognized as an expert in his field. He owns and operates the largest compounding-only facility in Manitoba that delivers specialized patient specific healthcare on a daily basis. In 2015, Mr. Didyk expanded his scope by becoming a surveyor for the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC).
