Artificial Intelligence In Nursing Care Planning And Decision-Making: Current Applications And Challenges

Published 2024-01-10

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a cornerstone of modern healthcare innovation, reshaping the way clinical information is processed, interpreted, and applied in nursing practice. Its integration enables rapid data synthesis, personalized care planning, and predictive insight that extend beyond the limits of traditional clinical judgment (Diakos, Koupidis & Dounias, 2022; Li et al., 2023). Nursing, long grounded in human intuition and patient empathy, now encounters an era where algorithms complement decision-making. The convergence of human compassion and computational intelligence promises improved diagnostic accuracy, workflow efficiency, and patient safety. However, this transformation also raises profound ethical and professional concerns about autonomy, trust, and accountability in care delivery (White, Dulko & DiPietro, 2022; Sadeghi-Gandomani & Alavi NM Afshar, 2019).
