Karie Ryan, chief nursing officer at Artisight, discusses the company's AI ambient intelligence offerings that combine audio and video, sensors and computer vision to create a smart hospital room for patient safety and workflow efficiency.

AI tools are commonly deployed to improve clinician experience, but Robert Havasy, HIMSS senior director of informatics strategy, says he's interested in how health systems are leveraging AI to assist patients along the care journey.

UCHealth's Brittany Cyriacks explains how the health system developed a virtual nursing command center enhanced by an AI tool that searches patient records for signs of deterioration and rolled it out to all 15 of its hospitals.

Lisa Counsell, HIMSS sales and relationship management VP, says that HIMSS membership brings value at every career level, enabling networking for newcomers and offering continuous learning and community for seasoned executives.

Joseph Brown, Davenport University chair for allied health and HIM, recommends that students interested in healthcare IT join their local HIMSS chapter to help them realize their career goals.

Jonathan French, HIMSS' senior director of public policy, urges HIMSS members interested in public policy advocacy to join committees or workgroups related to their topic of interest.

Sophia Brown, RN, Strategic Informatics Solutions' founder and CEO, continues to share ideas and troubleshoot technology problems with her HIMSS Executive Connect cohort and other alumni.

The use of ambient AI scribes enables doctors to be more present during visits, but Dr. Matt Sakumoto, Nabla's chief clinical product officer, says this hasn't necessarily improved patient experience scores.
