Cleveland Clinic is piloting a conversational AI tool for inpatient nursing that integrates directly into EHRs.
The tool, developed by the AI platform Ambience, enables nurses to ask plain-language questions and receive real-time, citation-backed responses informed by clinical notes, lab results, hospitals policies and more EHR-stored data, according to a March 31 news release. It is designed to reduce time spent navigating records and support care planning.
The tool is intended to cut documentation time and provide quicker access to relevant clinical information to support care coordination and decision-making.
Cleveland Clinic is the first health system to pilot the tool, which was developed in collaboration with its inpatient nurses and nursing informatics team. The AI assistant is limited to clinical questions and includes safeguards such as real-time monitoring and “nurse-in-the-loop” feedback, according to the release.
The launch is part of Ambience’s broader effort to develop AI tools specifically for nursing workflows across care settings. The platform currently supports more than 200 specialties across outpatient, emergency and inpatient environments.
