Hello Health Professionals, Nurses and Coaches,

Cannabis nursing embodies the principles of holistic nursing care, and with our partners at Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse, we are proud to announce the launch of their  new Cannabis Nurse Health Coach Certificate Program  and Mastermind Session & Toolkit.  Cannabis nursing is an emerging field, notable for its unique position within healthcare: nurses are the sole licensed health professionals who have openly embraced cannabis as medicine. For over two decades, the American Nurses Association has advocated for safe access to therapeutic cannabis and related cannabinoids. Indeed, cannabis nursing is fundamentally a form of holistic nursing. In 2023, the American Nurses Association officially recognized Cannabis Nursing as a specialty nursing practice.  As patients increasingly seek guidance and research rapidly advances, the healthcare system demands that professionals across all disciplines possess a deep understanding of the endocannabinoid system. This knowledge is crucial for safely and effectively integrating cannabinoid-based medicine into clinical practice.

Elisabeth Mack, CEO and Co-founder of Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse, states, “We are transforming the healthcare paradigm, bringing the future of medicine into the present. The rescheduling of cannabis is inevitable, and healthcare professionals will increasingly seek to understand its medicinal applications. We are immensely grateful to our partners at The Cannigma for dramatically expanding our reach.”

The Cannabis Nurse Health Coach Certificate Program:

30+ Hours | 30 CEUs | 1-Year Access

The CNHC curriculum blends history, science, therapeutics, and practice-building into a step-by-step pathway. You’ll gain confidence in understanding the endocannabinoid system, plant pharmacology, condition-specific protocols, and integrative health strategies.

What You’ll Learn: (30 CEUs for Nurses)

  • Foundations of Cannabis Science: history, cannabinoids, terpenes, pharmacology, products, dosing, and safety.
  • Therapeutics & Clinical Applications: 38 units covering neurology, mental health, pain, autoimmune disorders, oncology, women’s and men’s health, and more.
  • Business & Advocacy: legalities, costs of care, practice standards, entrepreneurship, and networking opportunities.

Every unit is narrated so you can listen on the go, supported by quizzes, a final exam, extension activities, and over 200 practice questions. You’ll also find APA references and direct links to the research — ensuring your knowledge is grounded in evidence-based practice that will endlessly stoke your curiosity. By the end, you won’t just “know about cannabis.” You’ll be able to speak with authority, guide patients safely, and stand out as a leader in this emerging field.

Why This Matters Now

The future of healthcare is patient empowerment. Healthcare is shifting. Patients are demanding alternatives. Conventional treatments often fall short, especially for chronic conditions. This isn’t theory — it’s evidence, case studies, protocols, and lived experience. And as cannabis medicine grows, job opportunities are expanding:

  • Hospitals and clinics need informed and trained staff.
  • Dispensaries and product companies need knowledgeable consultants.
  • Patients need trusted coaches to navigate care.

As Cannabis Nursing gains recognition as a specialty, board certification is on the horizon, which means that nurses will be able to sit and take an exam to become Board Certified in Cannabis Nursing.  The Cannabis Nurse Health Coach  curriculum ensures you’ll be prepared, aligning perfectly with “The Scope and Standards of Cannabis Nursing”  published in May 2024.  Elisabeth Mack’s book, “Cannabis for Health: Become a Coach,” receives a notable reference on page 41, while Holistic Caring & The Green Nurse is listed on page 39 as a provider of online certificate programs qualified to teach at this level.
