AI and the Clinician: Navigating Responsible Use in Rehabilitation
Presented by Aimee E. Perron
Description
*This webinar is scheduled for 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT (Adjust for your time zone)
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are increasingly appearing in clinical documentation, education, patient communication, and decision support across the rehabilitation professions. While these technologies offer opportunities to improve efficiency and access to information, their use also raises important ethical, professional, and regulatory considerations for clinicians.
This webinar introduces key concepts related to the responsible use of AI for healthcare and rehabilitation professionals. Drawing from established ethical frameworks for AI, participants will explore how professional values, transparency, clinical judgment, and patient trust must remain central when integrating AI into practice.
Through practice-based case examples, participants will examine current challenges, including bias, overreliance on AI outputs, and limitations in evidence validation, and explore opportunities to leverage AI as a supportive clinical tool. The session will also discuss emerging regulatory considerations and practical strategies to help clinicians thoughtfully evaluate AI tools and responsibly incorporate them into patient-centered care.
By the end of the webinar, participants will be better equipped to thoughtfully evaluate and responsibly integrate AI tools while maintaining ethical standards and patient-centered care.
