Nurses must have a voice in shaping how AI is used in healthcare.

In a new op-ed published by BINJE, NJSNA CEO Judy Schmidt explains why nurses’ firsthand experience with patient care, clinical workflows and healthcare technology makes their perspective essential as AI tools are selected, implemented and governed.

“Artificial intelligence should strengthen the work nurses already do. not replace the expertise, judgment and compassion that define professional nursing.”

AI is already shaping nursing practice in New Jersey, from sepsis alerts to smart documentation, often without clinicians even clocking it as AI.

Used well, it can catch problems earlier and free up time for patient care. Used carelessly, it can reinforce bias or dull clinical judgment.

AI should support nursing judgment, never replace it. Nurses belong at the table shaping how these tools are built and used.
