As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in healthcare, safety hinges on who shapes these tools. Nurses must be involved at every stage of AI development, from design through deployment. Their clinical expertise, real-time supervision, and ongoing testing are essential to ensuring AI systems are not only intelligent but also safe, patient-centered, and trustworthy.

Protecting nurses’ mental health isn’t optional; it’s essential. There are proven, evidence-based strategies that can make a real difference, from integrating resiliency training into nursing education to implementing anonymous mental health screening programs. And often, it’s the small actions, a pause, a check-in, even a simple email, that can truly save lives.

We’re back with new stories, new voices, and a renewed commitment to spotlighting nurse-led innovation.

As SEE YOU NOW celebrates 5 years of sharing the bold ideas and groundbreaking work of nurses, we’re looking ahead to the next chapter and amplifying the ways nurses are leading transformative change in healthcare. 

In upcoming episodes, we’ll explore patient safety with Don Berwick and Patricia McGaffigan, tackle access and workforce challenges, dig into mental health innovation, continue our AI in Play series, and more.  

Subscribe, share, and stay tuned—because when we support nurses, we advance better health for all. 

One of the biggest barriers standing between millions of Americans and programs assisting with food, utilities, and healthcare is—wait for it—enrollment paperwork. It’s not so much the lack of programs or their awareness of them, it's the capacity, across many touchpoints in the health and human services ecosystem to support navigating the paperwork and enrollment process. In fact, in 2024, 5 million children lost their Medicaid coverage due to paperwork or procedural reasons.

In this episode, part of our AI in Play series, emergency care nurse, health innovator, and entrepreneur Kwamane Liddell, JD, MHA, BSN, shares how AI is helping remove the paperwork roadblocks such as internet access, low literacy, and stigma standing between families and resources, and between care providers and the people they care for. At ThriveLink, multi-lingual,  Agentic AI-powered chatbots are available to anyone via a quick, free phone call. These telephonic enrollment agents walk people through complex forms out loud, turning confusing text into a simple conversation. This technology-based solution connects a world of existing resources, from food delivery to utility payment assistance to reduced-priced medications for millions of families, delivering a billion dollars worth of social resources.

Remember those clunky voice assistants from the early days of the internet? Well, the AI technology behind them has evolved dramatically and thanks to the power of Generative AI, we’re now talking to a new breed of conversational digital agents. These advanced AI agents can hold meaningful conversations with patients, offering multilingual support and knowledgeable guidance on a range of health issues. With these new capabilities, there is growing interest -- even excitement -- in Generative AI’s potential to improve access to care, address workforce shortages, and enable clinicians to reach people and communities and connect them to care and resources in ways we haven’t thought possible.

In this episode of our AI in Play series, we dive into the world of Generative AI agents with human experts Amy McCarthy, Chief Nursing Officer and Scott Collado, Senior Product Designer at Hippocratic AI, and Adam Updegraff DNP, CRNP, Senior Director at WellSpan Health to learn how they’re built and trained, who’s on the team building and rigorously testing them, and the real-world impact they're having on patients, communities, and clinicians. Tune in to hear how the future of healthcare is about teamwork between humans and technology, working together to deliver safer, smarter, and more accessible care for all.

AI is everywhere! From delivering the tacos you crave to the car you drive to the clinical trial you might need -- it's reshaping our world and our work. AI-based technologies are helping solve complex problems in nearly every discipline, industry, and human endeavor. And in healthcare, artificial intelligence is a game-changer. 

AI-based technologies do many things faster and better than humans can alone, with the promise of so much more ahead. And with that, comes a lot of questions, possibilities and well-founded concerns. 

In this first episode – of many to come exploring AI’s role in transforming healthcare – we’re starting with the basics and the big picture:

• What is artificial intelligence?

• How can we ensure AI is safe, equitable, and beneficial for all?

• How should healthcare professionals think about and integrate AI into clinical settings?

We reached out to veteran researcher and leading expert in computer science, machine learning, and AI, Peter Stone PhD, and nurse attorney and bioethicist Liz Stokes JD, MA, RN to explore these questions and dive into ANA’s position statement ‘The Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence in Nursing Practice,’ as well as McKinsey & Company’s report ‘The pulse of nurses’ perspectives on AI in healthcare delivery.’ Together, they explore the transformative potential of AI in healthcare and how to ensure it serves everyone safely and equitably.

Indigenous nurses bring more than clinical expertise to their practice—they bring a legacy of resilience, cultural knowledge, and a commitment to holistic care that honors their ancestors, culture, and history. For Native and Indigenous nurses, advancing practice means blending tradition and cultural humility with innovation to meet the unique needs of their communities, build trust, and transform health outcomes.

In this episode, we learn from Ojibwe Nurse researcher and educator Misty Wilkie PhD, RN, FAAN an Indigenous nurse director of the Doctoral Education Pathway for American Indian/Alaska Native Nurses at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing, to explore how the Center for Indigenous People, Health & Nursing is devoted to improving the health and well-being of Indigenous people and communities works toward reconciliation. Aiming to eliminate health disparities by building trusting relationships with Tribal Nations, developing evidence-based practices, and preparing doctorally trained Indigenous healthcare leaders, Misty Wilkie emphasizes the power of honoring tradition, language, and strengths to shape more inclusive, equitable healthcare systems.

The 2024 annual report from the Commonwealth Fund describes in detail that Americans face greater barriers to accessing and affording healthcare than those in peer nations. Now, nurses are overcoming those barriers to access through a new, growing medium: podcasting. In our Power of the Podcast series, we explore how nurses are taking their expertise to the airwaves to share evidence-based care solutions, offering patients and the public vital, practical, and trusted information while also providing healthcare colleagues tools to improve education and care delivery. Through podcasting, nurses are bridging gaps in education, care availability, and professional development, fostering better health outcomes and stronger communities. 

In the third episode of our three-part series, geriatric nurse practitioner Melissa Batchelor PhD,RN, FNP, FGSA guides us in exploring aging, Alzheimer’s, and moving towards an age-friendly world. By 2030 there will be more older adults than children on the planet for the first time in human history. Through her podcast This is Getting Old: Moving Towards an Age-Friendly World, she is building a global community of caregivers and covering a wide range of age-related topics from navigating healthcare, understanding technology, and evaluating social services and policy to the very practical matters of caregiving and managing dementia. Through interviews with experts, professionals, and individuals with personal experiences, we gain insights into the current state of aging and explore potential solutions so that we can all age well.

In the second episode of our three-part series, critical care nurse practitioner Kali Dayton DNP, AGACNP shares how her podcast Walking Home from the ICU is mission-critical to improving ICU care and preventing the physical and cognitive impacts of long-term sedation and immobility by following the ABCDEF Bundle and keeping ICU patients awake, communicative, mobile, and autonomous and their families engaged and participating in care. Walking Home from the ICU dives into research from experts, experiences of survivors, and evidence-based practices of critical care teams to ensure that research is accessible, applicable, and practical for ICU clinicians so patients can indeed walk home from the ICU and return fully to their lives!
