A European network for safer medication management
The Asclepius Project is an independent European network of hospital pharmacy professionals and experts working together to advance safer, more efficient and more sustainable medication management.
The project focuses particularly on the transition towards digital, automated and Closed Loop Medication Management in hospitals. By bringing together experience from different healthcare systems, hospitals and professional backgrounds, the network aims to turn practical experience into shared knowledge.
GPP Support is one of the founding partners of the Asclepius Project and actively contributes to its international activities, publications and knowledge exchange.
From practical experience to shared knowledge
Hospitals across Europe face many of the same challenges when modernising medication management: improving medication safety, dealing with workforce shortages, integrating digital systems and automation, redesigning workflows and demonstrating the value of new technologies.
The Asclepius Project creates a platform for hospital pharmacy experts to exchange real-world experience across countries and healthcare systems.
Rather than promoting one technology or one model, the project explores how digitalisation, automation and process redesign can contribute to safer and more effective medication management. Closed Loop Medication Management is an important part of this transition, connecting digital information, automation and clinical workflows across the medication process.
Our mission
Our mission is to contribute to safer, more efficient and more sustainable medication management by connecting expertise and practical experience across European hospital pharmacy.
The Asclepius Project focuses on:
• sharing good practices and lessons learned between hospitals and countries
• developing practical knowledge on Closed Loop Medication Management
• exploring digitalisation, automation and new technologies in hospital pharmacy
• evaluating organisational, clinical and economic impact
• supporting evidence-based decision-making and implementation
• connecting hospital pharmacists, researchers and other medication-management experts
Through publications, field visits, professional events and international collaboration, the project aims to help translate innovation into everyday hospital practice.

Knowledge, collaboration and real-world experience
The Asclepius Project turns international collaboration into practical knowledge for hospital pharmacy and medication management.
Our activities include:
- developing white papers and practical publications on medication management
- organising field visits to hospitals to learn from real-world implementations
- sharing experiences with Closed Loop Medication Management, automation and digitalisation
- contributing to European congresses, workshops and professional discussions
- connecting hospital pharmacy professionals and experts across Europe
Topics explored by the network include medication safety, interoperability, automation, bedside medication processes, implementation strategy and the organisational and economic impact of new medication-management models.
Through these activities, the Asclepius Project aims to bridge the gap between technological possibilities, scientific evidence and everyday hospital practice.
