Translate policy on good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice into procedures that hold up under day-to-day pressure.
Managing Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Under Good Manufacturing Practice
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice properly.
Course Overview
Clinical staff will work around a process for good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice that obstructs care, and they will be right to. Variation in manufacturing practice between shifts and sites is where avoidable harm lives. Progress on the health and pharmaceutical services capability is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice rather than to abstract argument. It treats the practice within health and pharmaceutical services as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Where manufacturing practice is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. It is designed for mixed groups, so that good pharmaceutical manufacturing practice is examined from more than one functional angle. They leave able to brief senior management on manufacturing practice in terms that support a decision. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this part of health and pharmaceutical services that participants can repeat annually.
