    4th Floor, Hayweight House, 23 Lauriston Street, Edinburgh. EH3 9DQ T. 0131 524 7286 [email protected] www.haemophilia.scot Ms Jane Grant Chief Executive Greater Glasgow and Clyde NHS Board NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde Corporate HQ J B Russell House, Gartnavel Royal Hospital Campus 1055 Great Western Road GLASGOW. G12 0XH 22 March 2018 RE: Proposal to relocate the Glasgow Adult Haemophilia and Thrombosis Comprehensive Care Centre Dear Ms Grant, I am writing further to my letter of 19 March 2018. I would like to clarify that it was Philip Dolan, in his role as Chair of the West of Scotland Haemophilia Group who brought the proposal to relocate the Glasgow Adult Haemophilia and Thrombosis Comprehensive Care Centre to our attention. Mr Dolan is meeting with the CEO of the Glasgow Royal Infirmary tomorrow (23 March) and has also called a meeting for patients which will discuss this issue (24 March). In its work on this issue to date, the West of Scotland Haemophilia Group has stressed its concerns about a lack of patient consultation and their fears that relocation could jeopardise the provision of a full comprehensive care package of services, as this is highly reliant on relationships with other specialties. Although the West of Scotland Haemophilia Group is not affiliated with Haemophilia Scotland we share many members and are both committed to working closely on this issue. We are grateful to them for being the first to identifying this issue, for taking prompt action to raise it with the hospital management, and for giving local patients an opportunity to come together to discuss the proposal.

At this stage there is a limited supply of the vaccine but residents and staff of care homes for older adults are a priority to be vaccinated along with front-line health and social care staff. This first priority group will continue to be vaccinated during December 2020 and all of January 2021. Due to the complexities of the vaccine it is not possible to bring the vaccine out to homes yet although it is hoped that it will be possible to start this before the end of December. As soon as we receive the guidance that it is possible to take the vaccine to individual care homes, NHS staff will come to care homes to deliver the vaccine to staff and residents. From 9th December we will run vaccination clinics at the Louisa Jordan Hospital for NHS and care home staff. From the 14th December there will also be clinics for NHS and care home staff set up at the locations in the appendix to this letter.
