Every nurse an AI nurse: A framework for integrating artificial intelligence across nursing practice, education,...

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly embedded in healthcare, the nursing profession must embrace the imperative of 'every nurse an AI nurse'. This commentary argues that nurses must not only adapt to AI technologies but actively shape their development, implementation, and governance to ensure alignment with nursing's core values of compassionate, patient-centred care. Drawing on a five-part APDDS framework: Aware, Prepare, Dare, Declare, Share; the article outlines a strategic approach for integrating AI across nursing practice, education, research, and policy. It emphasises the need for AI literacy, leadership, ethical engagement, and knowledge dissemination to empower nurses as innovators and advocates in the digital transformation of healthcare. By embracing this proactive stance, the nursing profession can ensure that AI enhances rather than diminishes the human elements of care.
