Summary
At the ViVE 2026 conference, Amit Patel, Chief Nursing Informatics Officer at Tampa General Hospital, highlighted the significance of effective change management in the clinical adoption of AI technologies, indicating that operational shifts, rather than technical barriers, pose the main challenges. Nurses play a pivotal role in implementing AI tools such as ambient listening devices, which aim to enhance efficiency while preserving clinical judgment. The collaboration with Microsoft has led to tailored AI solutions that facilitate accurate data entry and streamline documentation, allowing nurses to concentrate more on patient care. This underscores the necessity for robust AI governance structures to support the integration of technology in nursing workflows and ensure continuous improvement in healthcare delivery.
