Nurse to sign up for medical marijuana program

PROVIDENCE -- A nurse with multiple sclerosis who worked to pass the state’s new medical marijuana bill planned to turn in her paperwork to register for the program this morning at the state Department of Health.

Nurse Rhonda O’Donnell planned to join another patient who worked to pass the bill, Warren Dolbashian, and the bill sponsor, Rep. Thomas Slater, D-Providence, according to the organization the Marijuana Policy Project.

At 11 a.m., they were set to meet at the main entrance of the Health Department, 3 Capitol Hill in Providence.
