Please note that the Microsoft Word version of the PGD templates that all of these PGDs were authorised from are available here.
Emergency preparedness
Authorised emergency preparedness PGDs (e.g. for flu outbreaks in care homes) are available on request. Note that these would normally be authorised by the commissioner of the service so contact your CCG if necessary.
