Comme la Régie est sans fumée, sans vapotage et sans parfum, seules l’huile et les gélules de cannabis peuvent être utilisées à l’hôpital. Cette brochure fournit de l’information sur l’utilisation du cannabis à l’hôpital et sur l’importance d’informer vos fournisseurs de soins de santé si vous faites usage de cannabis, quelle qu’en soit la raison.
- This is a French translation of the English pamphlet 2000, “Questions About Using Cannabis in the Hospital”. NSHA facilities are smoke-free, vape-free, and scent-free. Because NSHA is smoke-free, vape-free, and scent-free, only cannabis oil or capsules can be used in the hospital. This pamphlet provides information about using cannabis while in the hospital, as well as why it is important to tell your health care providers if you are using cannabis for any reason.

- Light is reflected from objects and enters the pupil. It passes through the lens and vitreous (clear jelly-like fluid) onto your retina. Your retina changes light into a message. The optic nerve carries the message to your brain. When the brain receives the message, you have vision. Your retina is as thin as tissue paper. Change or damage to the retina can cause vision loss. This pamphlet explains how you can tell if your retina is damaged, what kinds of damage can happen to the retina, and types of treatments and surgery. The French version of this pamphlet 1718, "Greffe de cornée (kératoplastie)", is also available.
