Podcast: My Patient Uses Cannabis for Chronic Pain: Best Practices for Rehabilitation Therapists
Tracking # 20-1074692
Course overview
As more states legalize medicinal marijuana, rehabilitation therapists are seeing cannabis as a viable alternative for managing chronic pain. In this podcast, we discuss the evidence for cannabis as an effective therapeutic for chronic pain. Rehabilitation therapists will learn what they should know when working with patients who use it and introduce patient resources for dosing and administering. The impact of cannabis on clinical presentation, the rehabilitation plan of care, and progression are modeled through a series of clinical cases.
