What is the PA Law?
In PA a caregiver must be over 21 and have a background check. They can pick up, deliver, educate on dosing and make recommendations, and cook for the patient. All caregivers must be authorized by a patient to purchase, carry, and cook cannabis.
Caregivers cannot purchase or consume any of the medicine.
