Good Distribution Practice applies to the whole business, so if you have a WDA, one of the requirements is that you work to GDP. As part of your licence terms, it is the responsibility of the RP to ensure that all staff involved in GDP activity are trained in GDP. For some members of the team such as warehouse, logistics and those who physically handle the product, this is very obvious. But what about the less obvious roles which are equally important in ensuring GDP is followed.
Are the sales team checking their customers are eligible to buy the products?
Are accounts checking that businesses are registered and their details are all correct?
One of the categories of falsification of medicines is illegal diversion – by not checking the whole supply chain, an organisation could be unwittingly involved.
Pharmacy Consulting can cover all your GDP training needs, whether you have a couple of people who would like to join our regular sessions, or require some bespoke all-business training for the whole team, we can fulfil your requirements.
