As artificial intelligence (AI) technologies rapidly expand into the homecare setting—from chatbots and symptom checkers to remote monitoring and predictive risk models—healthcare professionals must navigate a complex landscape of opportunities and risks. This session explores the promise of AI in extending care beyond hospitals and clinics into patients’ homes, especially for aging populations and those with chronic illnesses. It also critically examines the challenges AI poses, including clinical safety, data privacy, algorithmic bias, integration with electronic health records, and the evolving regulatory environment.
Drawing from real-world case studies and implementation science, Dr. Yuri Quintana will provide an in-depth look at how AI tools are transforming homecare, what pitfalls to avoid, and how healthcare providers can play a central role in ensuring ethical and equitable deployment. This talk is designed to empower clinicians, informaticians, and administrators with the knowledge needed to assess, implement, and monitor AI technologies for homecare delivery.
This session is approved for 2 CEUs for NASW, LICSW, LDAC, LMHC and Nursing.
Presented by:
Dr. Yuri Quintana, Chief of the Division of Clinical Informatics, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School
