100% of High End Market Place Employees to be Certified Medical Marijuana Consultants

Vancouver, WA: High End Market Place is proud to announce that 100% of their employees will be certified medical marijuana consultants in July 2016. As of July 1st, H.E.M.P.s consultants will be ready to enter patients into the Washington State Department of Healths database system. If patients choose to be entered into the database, they will be able to purchase cannabis products sales tax-free, grow 6-15 plants based on physicians recommendation, purchase up to 3x the current recreational limit, and have access to certain medical-only products. They will also be available to answer any questions for individuals who may qualify as patients under the Cannabis Patient Protection Act.

In order to become a consultant, high end employees were required to take a state approved (DOH and LCB approved) 20 hour training course, become CPR certified, and submit required documentation to the Washington State Department of Health. In addition, High End staff are able to now make medically-focused recommendations on products that may help patients and individuals suffering from qualifying conditions.  

We feel that weve offered medical grade products since we opened in January 2015, and we are really excited to be one of the few stores making the shift to medical in Southwest Washington.explains owner Morgan Hutchinson. We are prepared to continue to allow safe access to the most responsibly produced cannabis in the market to date, and we understand that with this medical certification comes huge responsibility. In addition to offering access to the safest products in the market, we also need to be very sensitive to the privacy of patients information, and we are aware of the high level of security and confidentiality that will need to take place with this new medical endorsement.

In March 2016, High End Market Place began third party testing as an extra precaution to providing safe access to their customers, and the emphasis on safe products continues to be their number one priority as they move forward. After visiting over 100 producer/processor facilities across Washington State, H.E.M.P. continues to be concerned that irresponsible practices seem to be widespread and products continue to be sold in the recreational market that may not be safe to ingest. Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board released a product recall earlier this year, and we hope this deters businesses from participating in irresponsible practices as this shift from recreational to medical transforms Washingtons overall approach to cannabis.
