Webinar - Navigating Nursing Practice in the Sea of AI
9–11:30 a.m. Saturday, March 14, 2026
artificial intelligence, or AI, is quickly becoming part of everyday health care, from electronic health records to search engines and clinical tools. While AI offers exciting possibilities, it is not a replacement for skilled nurses, it is just another tool.
Join nurses from across Washington to explore what AI really is (and isn't), its pros and cons, and how it is being used in nursing practice today. Gain confidence in using AI, learn when not to use it, and see how your critical thinking and clinical judgment remain essential in this new era. AI is here to stay. Join the conversation and discover how it can enhance your nursing toolkit.
The featured speaker, Uba Bačkonja, PhD, MS, RN, is a nursing researcher specializing in health informatics, data visualization and AI. At the MITRE Corporation, she develops user-centered health technologies.
This Zoom webinar is brought to you by the Nurses Education Series, continuing education for nurses in Washington state. Sponsored by Central Washington Region Nurses Association, Inland Empire Nurses Association, King County Nurses Association, Northwest Region Nurses Association, Rainier Olympic Nurses Association and Southwest Region Nurses Association. The webinar is free for WSNA members.
