With the explosion of cannabis use in the U.S., Alicia Schaal saw a gap in knowledge for healthcare professionals. Without much evidence-based information to find, she decided to educate herself so she could share that knowledge with others, namely the nurses and physicians that were unsure how cannabis impacts the our patients and the care that we deliver.

 

Alicia is currently taking pharmacology and other related courses to arm herself with the most up to date research. She is also a certified Cannabis Nurse in Minnesota. She recently  formed Midwest Cannabis Professionals, a consulting and education business. On her website, her goal is to “help improve your quality of life with medical cannabis”. Anyone can reach out to her for information so that they can make educated decisions for their own care. She also works with healthcare professionals so that they may feel more comfortable making decisions about their patient’s care regarding cannabis use. 

 

Alicia is very knowledgeable when it comes to cannabis and if she doesn’t know the answer to a question, you can bet that she will find the answer to best help her customers. This is a much needed service in a time when there is such little information. Alicia is certainly moving us in the right direction.
