    REVOLUTIONIZING PATIENT CARE WITH AI: We are #BaptistProud to be the first health system in the country to embark on a new AI solution that improves care by streamlining the process for nurses to document important details about a patient’s condition and care plan. In collaboration with Microsoft, this innovative solution is voice-activated, eliminating the need for excessive and time-consuming manual documentation. This new technology is being tested at Baptist Medical Center South and will eventually roll out to the entire health system. Baptist Health is one of only 10 health systems in the nation to collaborate on the development of this innovative new time-saving tool.
