Global Medical Solutions (GMS) operates commercial radiopharmacies in the following locations across Australia:-
Within our six facilities, GMS compounds, dispenses and delivers time critical radio-pharmaceuticals to hospitals and nuclear medicine departments 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Of these facilities, three (Sydney, Perth and Brisbane) are licenced by the TGA to manufacture according to Good Manufacturing Practice, whereby all processes are carried out in clean rooms under the strictest quality assurance and environmental standards. Our facilities in Melbourne and Adelaide are accredited by their respective state Pharmacy Guilds and are similarly subject to regular inspection, audit and quality control standards to ensure production excellence in all areas.
Similarly, all of GMS’s production facilities are licenced by the appropriate state body to ensure compliance with all required radiation safety regulations for both production and waste disposal.
Our teams of radio-chemists receive exhaustive in-house training in all aspects of radio-pharmaceutical production, aseptic handling, quality control, environmental monitoring and radiation safety. Radio-chemist training records are reviewed at regular audits by the TGA and state bodies, to ensure the radiopharmaceuticals manufactured within GMS facilities are produced as safely and efficiently as possible.
In recognition of the time critical nature of the GMS service, at all locations GMS has a fleet of drivers and vehicles to guarantee timely delivery of decaying radio-pharmaceuticals. All GMS drivers hold the necessary state licensing for transport of radioactive products and fully understand the operational, safety and patient-based requirements of on-time delivery to our many clients across Australia.
At GMS, we have made it our business to understand your needs in Nuclear Medicine and PET. We uphold the highest of operational standards every single day, so that our customers can concentrate on serving patient needs and absolutely rely on the quality of the products we supply.
