Canadian Medication Incident Reporting and Prevention System (CMIRPS)

Summary

The Canadian Medication Incident Reporting and Prevention System (CMIRPS) is a national voluntary medication incident and ‘near miss’ reporting programme founded for the purpose of sharing the learning experiences from medication errors. Implementation of preventative strategies and system safeguards to decrease the risk for error-induced injury and thereby promote medication safety in healthcare is our collaborative goal.
