The Scottish Government gives priority to staff who have frequent face-to-face clinical contact with patients and who are directly involved in patient care in either secondary or primary care/community settings. This includes those working in public, private, third sector and non-standard healthcare settings such as hospices, and community-based mental health or addiction services.

Front line social care workers that should be prioritised for vaccination are those that provide direct and personal care to those most at risk of COVID-19 disease and its complications; the elderly, those with particular chronic medical conditions which increase their risk from COVID-19, and children with severe neuro-disabilities and complex needs. 

There is more detail about the priorities for third sector frontline staff in this letter from the Scottish Government here


This form seeks to identify staff and volunteers in the third sector in Glasgow who fall into these priority groups. The information you give will be passed to the officers within the GCHSCP who are implementing vaccine rollout.
