The home health nurse discovers that a homebound cancer patient is using marijuana to control nausea from chemotherapy. What advice should the nurse give this patient?
Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected.
Select all that apply.
◦ The effect of marijuana on decreasing nausea is fleeting and not worth the health problems caused by using it.
◦ Since the patient is homebound, it is likely the use of marijuana will not be discovered by anyone else.
◦ Possession of marijuana is illegal under federal law.
◦ Check state law to determine if there are current legislative guidelines for legal possession of medical marijuana.
◦ As long as it is documented that an illness exists that can be treated with marijuana, no risk of prosecution is present.
