Medical Cannabis Care
People are using cannabis for health and healing, though most do not know how this plant works in the body and interacts with other drugs. As a certified cannabis nurse I will guide and educate you on proper use for optimum health. Medical Cannabis can be used to treat anxiety, chemo-induced nausea/vomiting, PTSD, chronic pain, insomnia and other diagnoses.
Melynda does such a great job! Her knowledge and dedication are much appreciated. Hopefully, I can somehow repay her for all she’s done for me.

Melynda is our angel. We are so incredibly thankful for her kindness, her knowledge, her tenacity and advocacy, and her genuine concern for my sister’s well-being, dignity and recovery. Melynda is like family now and we are forever grateful to her for everything.
Chantal – Lincoln
Our mother was in the hospital and Melynda was able to support our family by scheduling very effective family, doctor, and hospital staff meetings that brought all the caregivers together. Melynda monitored her care as Mom progressed, ensuring that proper care was continued to be delivered. Our mother is now home and doing well. Thank you, Melynda!
C.P. – Sacramento
One of the most helpful things Melynda helped us with was a medications review. She was able to identify duplicate medications, ask the doctor about them and reduce the amount of medications my mom was taking. Her medical knowledge was helpful in bridging the gap between different specialists and their prescriptions.
