Two Louth pharmacies nominated for The People’s Pharmacist 2023
Two Louth pharmacies have been nominated for The People’s Pharmacist 2023, in association with Panadol and the Irish Pharmacy News.
Mark's Staywell Pharmacy in Ardee is hoping to add to its "Pharmacy of the Year" and "Pharmacy Team of the Year" awards won at the Irish Pharmacy Awards earlier this year.
Meanwhile, Tony Fitzsimmons Collon Pharmacy has also been nominated.
During September, members of the public were encouraged to nominate their local pharmacist whom they thought should be recognised for going the extra mile. After receiving a wealth of nominations – over 400 – across the country, eight deserving shortlisted finalists have been chosen.
The People’s Pharmacist Award seeks nominations from across the country, giving patients the opportunity to recognise and salute their local pharmacist.
According to Irish Pharmacy News:
“Through this Award, we are enabling the public to have a voice in recognising the unwavering support and spirit that makes pharmacists the backbone of our health service in every community across Ireland.
“As the scope and prominence of this Award has increased with each passing year, it has added even more value to the profession of pharmacy; through the strong and positive messages, not to mention, recognition given to the vital and impressive work being done by all the nominees, in their communities.”
