Webinar Description:

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into healthcare environments to help manage complex workflows, reduce administrative burden, and support clinical teams. In veterinary medicine, AI is emerging primarily as an assistive technology that helps capture, organize, and structure information — allowing veterinarians and technicians to spend more time focusing on patient care and client communication. 

This course will introduce the practical role of AI in veterinary medicine, including where it is most effective and where human oversight remains essential. Participants will learn how AI systems can assist with documentation, workflow organization, and communication tasks while maintaining clinician control over medical decisions. Real-world examples will demonstrate how veterinary AI assistants — such as medical scribes and workflow tools — can be integrated into everyday practice.

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how to evaluate AI tools, implement them responsibly, and use them to improve efficiency, reduce cognitive load, and support a healthier work–life balance in veterinary practice.
