OPA Media Award
Relationships with the media are a great way to promote the pharmacy profession and grow public awareness for all that we can do. These relationships help inform the public on medication safety and issues within our profession.
If you know someone who has been a champion for pharmacy in the media, please nominate them for a 2024 Print or Broadcast Media award. Awards are presented to persons in the media (broadcast and print) promoting medication safety or pharmacy issues to the public. Winners will be recognized at the Awards and PAC Luncheon on Friday, April 5, at the OPA Annual Conference and Trade Show.
