Medical cannabis can only be administered if the patient has a current written certification from a board-registered practitioner. Medical marijuana certifications in Virginia are only valid for one year. Thus, if your certificate is set to expire, you must submit for cannabis certificate renewal in Virginia. Is this, however, necessary? Yes! But why is this so?

When Kyle Truong needed medical attention for a respiratory infection last year, he said there weren't many convenient options for accessing timely care. Truong, who lives in Toronto, hasn't had a family doctor for about four years.

But then he discovered a private clinic where he could quickly get an appointment with a nurse practitioner, though it would not be covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP).

"First I was a little disappointed," Truong, 29, said. "Because if I'm paying tax dollars and we're supposed to have great health-care coverage, it kind of sucks that I have to pay for accessibility in this case."

Hi, May I ask what type of nurse you are? And what’s it like

I am a nurse practitioner (which is a sort of advanced RN - kind of a step above a nurse but several steps below a doctor) in a neurology clinic. Although I do a little bit of everything, I mostly focus my practice on patients with multiple sclerosis.

As far as what it's like ... it's stressful. I love my patients (mostly), and helping people truly brings me joy, but there is so much that goes into my job that is just shitty. Documentation, insurance authorizations, appeals, time constraints and access issues all are a huge part of the things about my job that I hate. I spend on average 32 hours per week seeing patients, and my job allots me 8 hours for the "asynchronous/administrative work" but in general I work about 50-60 hours per week to keep my head above water. It's a huge issue when it comes to work-life balance, and if I quit for anything it will be over that, not the patients.

Which is sort of a very sad commentary on modern American healthcare, tbh.

Alberta will soon allow nurse practitioners to open their own independent clinics in a move the provincial government promises will expand primary care access. Health Minister Adriana LaGrange made the announcement Wednesday that independent practices would be able to open starting early next year. It comes as Albertans often go without routine medical care due to a shortage of family doctors.

the ac broke in my apartment and t*xas has been so so hot, so i’ve spent the week at Books’ place and it’s been. gosh

sunday, i went for a good hike with a friend, met Books at work for their lunch break, and then went to theirs. monday, we studied together and played mario kart (first time since i was a child!). tuesday, i studied while they were in (zoom) class and then i went to the movies (twbb my beloved!) to give them some breathing room to decompress after their counseling session; late in the evening we went to the gym together and then for a delightful night swim bc the courtyard pool was empty and dark and warm and i haven’t been swimming in probably a decade but it’s so hot and it was so lovely. i had been planning on doing a fun outdoor activity for the solstice on wednesday, but it was blistering out there, so we stayed in, indulgently enjoyed the air conditioner, rewatched s1 of the bear, and ordered takeout from a jamaican place that’s gradually becoming one of my favorite restaurants in the city. today we slept late and chilled out until i came back to my place.

tomorrow night, we’re going to a party together. next week will also surely be delightful. they’re getting a weekend off next month and i’m gonna plan something fun for them. i’m hoping that this is a good indicator of what our life will be like together. i can’t wait to find out!
