Questions from the East Coast RI MMJ

This is to anyone witth comprehensive knowledge of MMJ in Ca or other States with active Compassion Centers!

I am a new MMJ patient in RI.


There is not yet an operating licensed Compassion Center in RI but there are Three Legislated to be licensed.

I am of the mind that Big Business will look to grab hold of MMJ in RI and have strong feelings against this happenning!

We need to protect against opening a "Bad" Compassion Center.

If anyone has any knowledge of business practices, pricing, hours of operation, pay schedules for employees or other relavent information please help us in RI build a better Compassion Center for the future MMJ patients.

I believe MMJ should be treated like a Schedule II prescription with comprehensive safeguards to insure against leakage, theft, or diversion.

We should take care that MMJ does not fall into the hands of children unless authorized by a Physician.

That being said as we have a responsibility to the brave pioneers who enabled MMJ legislation, the current patients who are operating within the rules, and future America,to insure we do not get this wrong.

If there are any good ideas and practices that currently work for the patient in other States please share them here.

We as a whole in RI should work together with the State to insure Our Compassion Center is a place we want to conduct our affairs with dignity and respect.

I believe that Our,RI Compassion Center,should have a "sliding scale" for MMJ patients who are low income disabled. We need to operate a system that insures availibility for high quality medication to those who can not due for themselves.

If we act together and share pertinent information about policy and procedure that work, regarding MMJ and Centers, or CO-OP's, it is possible to preserve dignity, respect, and diversity in our Compassion Centers Nationwide, after all they exist at our pleasure and should work to assist us.

While I am sure indiscretions happen everywhere,we must insure dignity and respect to those more fragile.

The measure of a civilization is how good they treat their most vulnerable citizens.

MMJ should be where legal covered by a healthcare reimbursement or a direct payer system, but untill that day we need to assist any MMJ patient obtain medication

I would like to be part of group of patients collectively administering MMJ to those with need in a safe, clean, secure facility that respects every clients needs confidentially,while allowing them to enjoy an unmatched level of service and respect regardless of circumstance or current illness.

We can leave behind a legacy with Our Compassion Center that will be legendary to those who utilize its services in the distant future

Any suggestions, ideas, or criticisms are always welcome.
