Nurse Helpline and Guidance Calls
Program Chair: Whittney Wacker, RN, BSN
Everyone has questions about cannabis. Are hemp and marijuana the same thing? Will CBD get me high? Do I have to smoke it? Do I have to get high to get the benefits? Will it interfere with my medications? Where do I even begin?
For many people, it can be hard to find specific answers in the abundance of cannabis information out there. Getting educated on cannabis is like learning a new language, it’s always easiest to learn with the help of someone already well versed in cannabis and health. Take the guesswork out by speaking to a cannabis trained nurse.
LEAF411™ believes that knowledge is power, especially when it comes to legal cannabis use. We live in a world where many people use the internet to self-diagnose and treat themselves, especially when it comes to cannabis medicine. LEAF411 Nurses are trained in cannabinoid sciences and are able to get healthcare consumers started in the right direction.
