Nurses Week, Teacher Appreciation Week, and Mother’s Day all fall within the same timeframe in May. Society should just rename this week “underappreciated women’s occupations week” and give us all the week off!

In any case, Happy National Nurses Week! We are grateful for all the hard work and dedication of nurses who tirelessly care for patients every day.

Nurses are regularly rated as one of the most trusted professions. It is also wonderful to see that nurses are often the leaders at the forefront of the emerging science behind cannabis and CBD. Since starting my business, I have been so thrilled to meet so many nurses who are passionate about this new, growing field and helping individuals figure out how to use for their health and wellness. CBD is amazing and has the potential to be truly life-changing for many people – nurses included!

This week, we want to shine a light on who are leading the way in a rapidly evolving field. These nurses have specialized knowledge in the therapeutic use of cannabis and are working to educate patients, healthcare providers, and the general public about its benefits.

⭐ Check out this informative article on how cannabis nurses are making a difference in the lives of patients: https://acuteonchronic.com/cannabis-nursing-a-new-dope-specialty/

Cannabis nurses are making a difference in the lives of patients with chronic pain, cancer, epilepsy, and other conditions. They are advocating for safe and responsible cannabis use and pushing for more research in this area.

To all the cannabis nurses out there, thank you for your compassion, expertise, and commitment to improving patient care. Your work is truly inspiring and we are proud to celebrate you during this special week of appreciation. Happy Nurses Week!
