Cannabis Nurses Network 2020 Nursing Awards & Nominations

by | Dec 20, 2020 | CNN News

Cannabis Nurses Network took a moment to look back on all we had accomplished this year, as a network, and as a collection of marvelous cannabis nurses, and to specifically honor some important people in our community. Recognition is one of the core values of Cannabis Nurses Network because we know by experience that there is no such thing as successfully going it alone, and each person who contributes value to a collective community deserves the honor of recognition for their hard work.

This year, we opened up nominations to our social audience for the CNN 2020 Nursing Awards and the list of amazing professionals is no short of impressive. During our Nurse Appreciation Celebration, our members voted on who deserved the award for each category, and we announced the winners at the end of the event.

We’re sharing (and showing off!) the award winners from 2020 below so you can get to know some of the amazing members within our network.
