How Technology is Changing Nursing Forever

We welcome Ann-Louise Puopolo, a nurse executive, to discuss the critical issue of the nursing shortage crisis and the impact of burnout and technology fatigue on health care workers. Ann-Louise shares insights from her experience at Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital, exploring how technology can support the nursing workforce, improve patient care, and promote a culture of safety. We also dive into strategies for empowering nurses to speak up, reducing safety incidents, and leveraging artificial intelligence to streamline workflows and reduce burnout.

Ann-Louise Puopolo is a nurse executive.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "Adopting technology to support the nurse workforce and provide smarter, safer care delivery."
