Thank you for this article. This type of issue can come up in Canada as well:

Here is an example of direction given to nurses in Nova Scotia:

Administration of Medical Cannabis Section 56 class exemption of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) authorizes hospital employees (including nurses) to directly administer medical cannabis to clients with authorization to use it. The definition of a hospital according to the Narcotic Control Regulations, includes licensed nursing homes and residential or long term care facilities.

At this time, the Section 56 exemption of the CDSA does not apply to those nurses working in home care settings. Therefore, nurses working in home care are not authorized to directly administer medical cannabis to clients. They are however, authorized to assist a client who has been authorized to use medical cannabis. 

Nurses working in home care should refrain from activities that may be viewed as the actual administration of the medical cannabis, such as placing oral medical cannabis in the client’s mouth or holding the inhaled medical cannabis to the client’s mouth. There must be employer policies which provide specific guidance to nurses relating to the administration or assistance of the administration of medical cannabis.

More information including requirements related to demonstrating competence can be found on page 6 here: https://crnns.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Medical-Cannabis-2017.pdf

To truly implement patient-centered medical cannabis we need the science to both support health care providers and evolve associated regulations/policies. Consequently, there is a huge opportunity with Tetra Bio Pharma to part of the future of the medical side of the market.
