Patient Group Directives

Paitent group directives or PGD’s, are a set of policies which are set up with instructions to administer medicines to patients without the need for a patient to see a doctor and get a prescription, under a strict criteria.  Once example of PGD’s at work is when there is a vaccination program.  The PGD allows the vaccination teams to administer the vaccine without the need to go via the GP.
