About CNNC
Cannabis education for medical professionals
The Cannabis Nurses Network Conference is an annual professional development and education conference designed exclusively for cannabis nurses & licensed medical professionals to advance their understanding of cannabis medicine, the endocannabinoid system and its practical application in day-to-day patient care & practice.
Do you know how to provide endocannabinoid system care?
Medical and Adult Use Cannabis laws have spread to nearly every state and territory in the United States. As healthcare professionals and nurses, this means many of our patients have access to and are using cannabis plant products.
Cannabinoid research is being conducted worldwide. Where better to educate medical health professionals than sunny San Diego, California; home of the Center for Medicinal Cannabis Research.
