How do you go about getting a vaccine for a housebound person?

Contact the GP.

Our surgery passes the housebound list to the community nurses who are doing the vaccines or, on the odd occasion when they have a dose left over at the end of vaccine clinic, the Dr doing home visits that day will pop out and do it.

GP surgery should facilitate this

Contact your gp. My Dsis is housebound and has had all her vaccines done via the district nurses

How did they get their 1st 2nd and 3rd vaccines? Or have they only recently become housebound?

He was working full time and living a pretty normal life apart from having cancer (terminal), he was at work the day before he had a massive stroke. Now he is bedbound and at home to die, hence my question.
