Specimen Patient Group Direction (PGD) templates have been produced by us to assist NHS boards.
NHS boards should amend or adapt these PGD templates and must ensure that the PGD is considered and approved in line with local clinical governance arrangements for PGD.
The PGDs are currently being updated to make them more accessible. Email phs.immunisation@phs.scot if you would like a copy of any that are not available on this page.
