Starring Role for Paula

A Forth Valley pharmacist is the star of a new campaign to encourage people on repeat prescriptions to look again at the medicines they take to make sure they are getting the best possible care.

The ‘Let’s Talk Medicines’ campaign, which features Paula Harvey who lives in Polmont and works in the Tesco pharmacy in Stirling, encourages people to speak to their pharmacist or GP if they have any questions or concerns about their medication.

The campaign was developed in partnership with health professionals from across the West of Scotland. Paula appears in posters displayed in community pharmacies across Scotland and the campaign is also supported by local press and radio advertising.
