Download the GDP Audit Manual

In 2015, 2017 and 2019 PostNL Pharma & Care conducted an independent survey about the Good Distribution Practice (GDP). This year 67 organisations in the chain participated. Despite the fact that knowledge about the guidelines and compliance is increasing, there are still major differences in the chain and there is a great need for knowledge and training! That’s why we made this GDP Audit Manual where you will find an overview of all relevant aspects of the guidelines and audits.

Audit Manual with practical checklist

Based on interviews, tips of experts and with an extensive checklist, we want to provide support to the sector for the better application of the European GDP guidelines in the storage, distribution, delivery and receipt of all healthcare products.

14:15 – 15:00 Veronique de Sitter, consultant at Qualigave
Keynote: The real GDP Audit findings. General GDP checklists are useful for preparing an audit or inspection. Yet these checklists often remain general. In this presentation we will dig deeper per GDP chapter. Based on my experience with GDP audits and inspections, we will go more into detail. In fact, the questions we will handle during my presentation are based on real audit findings and audit inspections. This presentation can be used as an extra checklist during audit preparations.

When building the new AZ Sint-Maarten to house 3 separate hospitals, they had a dream to improve their pharmaceutical care to the highest standards. Jens van Krieken will explain the challenges they were facing and how they developed a new way of medication distribution in the hospital. The key concepts of the new distribution proces are: high quality, multiple checks, traceability, closed loop, efficiency and Unit Dose.

AZ Sint-Maarten is the big winner of the IFMA Awards 2019. They won the prize of the professional jury and the audience prize.

16:15 – 16:45 Thomas de Rijdt, Head of Pharmacy at VZA
A presentation about the GDP, challenge and opportunity for hospital pharmacists. The profession of hospital pharmacist changed over the years from simple compounder over box mover to interdisciplinary therapy provider. The new tasks require new skills to check the appropriateness of medication therapy and to counsel patients and the other health care professionals.
Guidelines and quality systems became stricter, costs are rising and hospitals are evolving towards networks. This pushes the sector to standardization, automation, centralisation and scale increase in order to guarantee a positive cost/benefit ratio in providing the optimal therapy to the patient.
Next to the clinical role the hospital pharmacist must excel in compounding and distribution according GxP guidelines.
