Final exam: AI for nurses

Read in

1. A nurse wants help rewording a note about a patient’s refusal of a meal. Which approach is safest?
Upload a photo of the chart page, since the chatbot can read and tidy the handwritingAsk the chatbot to decide whether the refusal needs to be escalated to the providerPaste the note into a free chatbot after deleting the patient’s name and room numberAsk for general wording with no identifying details, then adapt it in the chart
2. Why should patient privacy rules such as HIPAA shape how you use AI?
They require written patient permission each time you open any app on a work deviceThey apply to physicians and hospital billing staff, but not to nurses using their own toolsThey protect identifiable health information and limit what goes into unapproved toolsThey cover only paper charts and faxes, so typing into an online tool falls outside them
3. An AI-drafted handout says a certain over-the-counter product is fine for everyone. What should you do?
Remove it, or verify it with approved sources and your pharmacist or providerAsk the chatbot whether the claim is accurate, and print it if it says yesPrint it as written, since the wording is clear and the handout is only general educationKeep it and add a line telling patients to ask their doctor if they have questions
4. Which task most clearly stays human?
Creating a first-draft outline for a unit in-service on hand hygieneMaking a practice quiz from your own approved study notesDeciding to call a rapid response for a patient who looks worseShortening a long staff email so the key request comes first
5. A colleague says, “It’s fine, I removed the name.” The note still mentions a rare condition, the unit and the date. What is the issue?
Nothing, because removing the name makes a note anonymousOnly the date is risky, since a unit name is publicOnly photos or scans of a chart can be identifyingThose details together can still identify the person
6. What is a reasonable first step if your unit has no AI policy?
Ask an AI tool to draft a policy for the unit and follow what it suggestsUse only your personal account for patient work so the hospital system is not involvedTreat the lack of a policy as permission, since nothing says it is forbiddenKeep patient data out of AI tools and ask your manager or compliance office
7. Which prompt will most likely give a usable teaching draft?
“Write a friendly handout about wound care for patients, easy to read, covering everything they should know.”“Explain wound care in detail, including medicines and doses patients should take at home.”“One-page handout on home wound care, grade 6 level, no doses, blank spot for our warning signs.”“Write home care advice for Maria, 67, who had surgery on her left knee last week.”
8. How can you describe AI skills truthfully on a resume?
Say AI wrote your charting notes, to show how efficient you are with technologyList every AI tool you have tried so employers see how much experience you haveSay you led AI adoption on your unit, since you suggested a tool to your managerName the specific approved tasks you used it for and that you check the results
