SJGHEL is subject to oversight from several stakeholders and accountabilities under multiple pieces of legislation. The Drug and Pharmacies Regulation Act provides the Ontario College of Pharmacists with the authority to accredit and inspect pharmacies within public and private hospitals. For these purposes, any location in a hospital where drugs are stored, compounded, dispensed, supplied from or for hospital inpatients or outpatients is deemed to be a pharmacy.
SJGHEL participates in an annual accreditation assessment with the Ontario College of Pharmacists.
