Can I be/have a caregiver for a medical marijuana patient in Hawaii?

Yes. Caregivers in Hawaii must be aged at least 18 years-old or older. To apply as a caregiver, follow this process:

  1. Caregivers must be designated by the qualifying patient on the application.
  2. Attend appointment with the patient.
  3. Get certified.
  4. Register with the Hawaii Department of Health (DoH)

Caregivers may only have one (1) patient at a time. No registration fee for caregivers – patients must designate a caregiver on their application form if they need one. After December 31, 2023, caregivers will not be allowed to grow medical cannabis except for minors/adults lacking legal capacity and on islands that do not have a dispensary.
