Supporting State Regulations
To date, 44 states plus D.C. have some type of cannabis use program. The public is purchasing, consuming and self medicating with cannabis therefore a harm-reduction program in every healthcare institution is essential.
"To maintain high-quality care for patients, health care organizations must find innovative ways to retain nurses.
Many nurses are becoming “travel nurses,” leaving their full-time positions to accept temporary, contract-based assignments at hospitals across the nation, often for higher pay.
While paying nurses higher salaries may increase retention in health care organizations in the short term, non-financial incentives, such as educational and development courses, advanced certification and
leadership opportunities, are important as well. Health care systems must provide ample time for nurses to pursue these development opportunities. Employers are going to have to help develop the skills of new graduates so we’re able to maintain the workforce.” -- School of Nursing experts say.
Not only will our team of nurses educate on cannabis therapeutics for your patients and staff, we also work to maximize your alternative medicine strategies for your business. We strive to help your patients quality of life, achieve their wellness goals, and support your staff to learn from experts. Public health considerations of cannabis medicine use, the social and legal climate surrounding it, and patient care issues are all directly relevant to clinical nursing practice.
