    Abstract/Description: In the face of rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence (A.I.), healthcare is undergoing significant changes. The integration of A.I. offers the potential for improved efficiency, accuracy, and enhanced patient outcomes. However, this integration also introduces complex challenges and important ethical considerations. Informatics Nurses, at the intersection of healthcare and technology, are well-positioned to navigate these changes. This panel aims to provide a clear overview of A.I. in healthcare, discussing its evolution, potential benefits, challenges, and future directions. Through evidence-based discussions, we seek to equip Informatics Nurses with the knowledge needed to effectively integrate A.I. in their practice and contribute to its responsible advancement.

    Objectives:

    1. Historical Perspective and Evolution:
    - Explore the history and progression of A.I. in healthcare. Understand its early developments, key milestones, and the driving forces behind its growing role in various healthcare settings.

    2. Current Applications and Potential:
    - Review the present applications of A.I., encompassing diagnostics, patient care, and administrative functions.
    - Discuss the potential of A.I. to reshape healthcare delivery, improve patient outcomes, and enhance operational efficiency.

    3. Ethical and Practical Challenges:
    - Delve into the challenges and ethical issues presented by the integration of A.I. in healthcare, with a focus on data privacy and potential biases.
    - Discuss strategies for the responsible and ethical use of A.I. in healthcare settings.

    4. Integration and Collaboration:
    - Highlight the importance of collaborative efforts in the successful integration of A.I. in healthcare.
    - Examine the role of Informatics Nurses in fostering collaboration among healthcare professionals, IT specialists, and A.I. developers, ensuring the development of patient-centric solutions.

    Presentation: Forensic/SANE Nursing in the EHR - 1 CEU

    Presenters: Cheryl DeGray & Michelle Giles

    Description:

    We will show how we successfully implemented forensic nursing workflow from within our EHR and was able to keep that record private and confidential, generate billing for Attorney General, sends ROI to allow Forensic nursing leader to deploy to requesting law enforcement agency. Expanded documentation to include strangulation and other abuse documentation.

    Forensic nursing has been a process since the 1990's and has predominately been on paper. In order to be able to get good data and secure data, using the EHR tools available provided us the challenge to make it the most secure record, so that the efficiency of the workflow was seamless. End users that were not involved with the Forensic encounter could now see there was a forensic encounter but can see none of the information regarding the encounter. This was the key to Forensic nurse buy-in and use of this within the EHR to ensure patients and their information was secure. The form designed was specific to our local prosecutor and state of Texas requirements.

    Objectives:

    1. Identify the need for restricted record locking outside the Forensic Department

    2. Define the governmental requirements needed for billing and documentation

    3. Define your end users that will be your subject matter experts
