While the buzz around AI has exploded recently, its roots in healthcare run deep. Decades ago, researchers began exploring how AI and machine learning could revolutionize medicine. Recent breakthroughs, like AI-powered medical imaging and sophisticated natural language processing (NLP) for analyzing medical records and literature, have steadily advanced AI’s role in healthcare.
Today, nurses must be able to adapt to new technologies as they emerge and use them in the field. Artificial intelligence impacts the practice of nursing with innovations like remote patient monitoring, and medication management software that free up nurses to better offer complex patient care. That patient care is also supported using AI technologies in clinical decision making and patient education.
Cambridge College of Healthcare & Technology is Leading the Field in Nursing Education
Cambridge College of Healthcare & Technology offers three paths for nursing: a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) and Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). We have a cutting-edge nursing simulation lab for our Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) programs so nursing students can engage in an education that provides a wide range of hands-on learning activities to achieve competency. Clinical and hospital-based nursing today continues to use AI technologies, NLP and robotics. Your Cambridge education will prepare you to be in the field using state-of-the-art technologies.
How AI is changing Nursing Practices
Nursing roles are being reshaped by artificial intelligence. AI-powered tools help with patient data analysis like lab results or x-ray images to improve diagnosis and recommendations for treatment. Administrative tasks are streamlined, allowing nurses more time for direct patient care. Nurses can work more efficiently and focus more on patient care. Here are examples of how AI is supporting the field of nursing:
- AI-powered clinical decision support systems: Provide evidence-based recommendations.
- Virtual nursing assistants: Offer support with scheduling, communication, and patient education.
- Predictive analytics: Assess patient risk and predict potential complications.
- Robotic process automation: Automates administrative tasks like data entry and documentation.
- Smart wearables: Monitor patient vitals like ECG and blood pressure.
How a Cambridge Education Makes a Difference
