I am Honored to announce that Cannabis Nurse Navigator® is now a USPTO Registered Trademark.
Developed to assist patients in overcoming barriers to prompt diagnosis and treatment, the Cannabis Nurse Navigator role focuses on education, advocacy, and coordinated care within the healthcare system.
This role—and its mission—continues through ongoing research at the Olin Neuropsychiatry Research Center, Institute of Living, Hartford HealthCare, where we’re exploring how cannabis nursing can improve patient care and provider understanding.
Findings from my pilot study, “Exploring Cannabis Patient Care: Institute of Living Staff Experience and Knowledge,” will be presented at:
📍 CT Nursing Research Alliance 29th Annual Symposium – Hartford Hospital, October 16, 2025 (4:30–7:00 PM)
📍 Trinity Health of New England Research Day – November 13, 2025
Each milestone represents progress toward integrating evidence-based cannabis education and compassionate care into our healthcare systems.
