How artificial intelligence is making nursing students more empathetic

Nursing students at Creighton University are using artificial intelligence to practice difficult conversations, enhancing their training before interacting with real patients. The AI provides real-time feedback on their communication, helping students replace ineffective filler phrases and improve their empathy. Developed with input from Professor Melissa Taylor, the AI focuses on end-of-life care conversations, equipping students with structured communication frameworks. Students believe this practice will make them more effective and compassionate caregivers.
