So... Can you be certified as an RN if you have a prescription for Medical Marijuana in a state where Medical Marijuana is legal?

One does not become "certified" to practice nursing. One becomes a Registered Nurse through "licensure". You will have to check with your state's Board of Nursing to determine the answer to your question.

How interesting an article is this! I was a fool to have spoiled my lungs for a years time using roll your own cigarettes, my cellular RNA of my lung tissue has been ruined forever. I am at higher risk for lung cancer than the one who never did smoke. Now I have an excuse to smoke pot. Only question is, will the Oregon BON approve this scandalous measure to cure the possible fate of my lungs?
