What is a medical marijuana establishment?
The Nevada State Constitution authorizes patients, on the advice and with written authorization of their physicians, to obtain and use marijuana for medical purposes. State Law and County Code provide for four types of establishments to provide medical marijuana:
* Facility for the production of edible marijuana products or marijuana-infused products. This facility acquires, manufactures, delivers, supplies or sells edible marijuana products or marijuana-infused products to medical marijuana dispensaries. These facilities are not open to the public.
* Medical marijuana cultivation facility. A cultivation facility acquires, cultivates, delivers, supplies or sells marijuana and related supplies to other medical marijuana establishments. These facilities are not open to the public.
* Medical marijuana dispensary. A dispensary delivers or sells marijuana or related supplies and educational materials to patients or care givers with a valid Nevada medical marijuana identification card. The Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health may authorize patients or caregivers with valid medical marijuana identification cards from other States to receive medical marijuana under specified situations.
* Medical marijuana independent testing laboratory. A testing laboratory tests marijuana, edible marijuana products and marijuana-infused products that are to be sold in Nevada. These facilities are not open to the public.
