AI in healthcare: Practical skills for the modern workplace
This webinar demystifies artificial intelligence for healthcare professionals who may feel overwhelmed or uncertain about AI's role in clinical practice. Moving beyond tech jargon and hype, we'll explore what AI actually is, how it works in healthcare contexts, and most importantly, how to use it safely and ethically in your daily practice.
Participants will learn practical applications for documentation, care planning, and clinical research synthesis, while addressing critical concerns about patient privacy, data security, and maintaining professional judgment. Through real-world examples from a physical therapy context, attendees will discover how AI can become a valuable thinking partner and help them reclaim time for patient care without compromising quality or ethics. The session incorporates recent ethical guidance from professional organisations to ensure responsible AI implementation.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Understand AI fundamentals - Define AI in healthcare terms and identify the main AI tools relevant to clinical practice (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini).
- Apply AI safely and ethically - Implement strategies to use AI while maintaining HIPAA/GDPR compliance, patient confidentiality, and professional standards as outlined by APTA ethics guidelines.
- Integrate AI into clinical workflows - Use practical techniques for AI-assisted documentation, assessment writing, and care planning that save time without sacrificing quality.
- Develop critical AI literacy - Evaluate AI outputs appropriately, understanding both capabilities and limitations to maintain clinical judgment and avoid over-reliance.
