If you work outside the NHS and not in primary care then PGD's don't really
work.
I use standing orders signed off by an OH Physician. I then order vaccines
under this with him signing any required agreements with the companies I
order vaccines from (POMS - need a Doctors signature)
However I do use the PGD's for my own guidance which I feel helps as I use
them as my set Standards for giving those vaccines.
Hope that is some help

Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Authorisation of PGD's by head of pharmacy
Good afternoon Folks
My question to all you folks out there was asked a couple of years ago by
someone else, but i dont seem to be able to locate any responses or
feedback in the JISC archives, so i wonder if you could help me please?
I work in the private sector and am looking to introduce/implement patient
group directives. I have lots of information of PGD's in terms of
examples, guidance, so dont need any of that thanks. However what i do
need to know is:
What do you other providers do in terms of getting heads of pharmacy on
board with regard to authorisation of PGD's. Do you use contacts in the
NHS? Do you use pharmacy contacts outside of the NHS? Do you have your
PGD's authorised by heads of pharmacy?
Any advice would be really appreciated.
Thank you
Donna
