Abstract

The age of AI (Artificial Intelligence) is here, and it impacts every aspect of our lives. There was a time when AI was only a complicated technological word, but it has become an undeniable part of many different industries. Similarly, healthcare has witnessed significant transformation at the hands of AI as it has revolutionized patient care. It has changed the way healthcare professionals diagnose issues and design treatment plans. One of the biggest benefits of AI in healthcare is the emergence of virtual health assistants, who have played an essential role in increasing accessibility to healthcare services. It’s needless to say, people with mobility issues and senior people fail to get treatment because of unavailability. However, virtual health assistants are breaking this barrier by offering consultation, health monitoring, and treatment reminders on a virtual basis. In simpler words, it’s ensuring the delivery of high-quality healthcare because it’s more than a fancy hospital. It’s about making healthcare available and accessible for everyone, irrespective of their location. So, with this book, we are focusing on how virtual nursing assistants are the future of the medical industry and how they will help improve the quality of healthcare for people who cannot visit hospitals. In addition to this, we will focus on how the healthcare industry can navigate through the potential security and data theft threats to ensure the reliable delivery of healthcare.
