Vaccination Service
Non-Routine Vaccination
About non-routine vaccines
Some people may be at a higher risk of certain diseases. This is because they:
- have underlying medical conditions
- have certain lifestyle factors
- are having surgery
These patients may need vaccinations outside of the routine programmes.
Most additional vaccines need a referral. The clinician or service treating a patient will decide which vaccines a patient needs. They will refer the patient to NHS Lanarkshire Vaccination Service.
Once the Vaccination Service receives the referral they will contact the patient to book an appointment.
Contact Information
If you have any questions about the referral process, please contact the Vaccination Service on 01698 687456.
