Nurses are not AI skeptics, but thoughtful innovators who are critically assessing its potential impact on patient care. As Lauren Rewers from our Nursing Catalyst team highlights, the narrative needs to reflect the reality that nurses are reserving judgment until AI proves its worth in improving patient care outcomes. Let’s ensure that the conversation around AI is accurate and champions nurses as innovators, not detractors.
