26th July 2019

This year Medica attended the UKIO in Liverpool, probably the biggest industry event on the calendar.

Following a record breaking number of entrants for our ‘Win an iPad’ competition, Olyvia Neshava from Walsall Manor Hospital was drawn as the lucky winner from hundreds of entrants.

Finlay Garlick from the Account Management team at Medica, met with Olyvia at the Walsall Manor Hospital and was presented with her iPad.

Olyvia was delighted to accept the prize and said:

“I’m very pleased to have won the iPad – it couldn’t have come at a more convenient time! It will be so useful as I’m currently taking a Post-Graduate course and I’m sure it will help me as I embark on my reporting journey, something I’m looking to begin in the near future”.
