Executive Summary
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a transformative technology with the potential to substantially enhance the quality of nursing education, clinical decision-making, and patient care. This policy brief examines the current status of AI integration in nursing education in Iran and identifies key challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, limited knowledge and skills, and unresolved ethical concerns. This report recommends the systematic integration of AI into nursing curricula to enable students, researchers, and policymakers to benefit from advanced tools such as intelligent simulations and clinical decision support systems.
Integrating AI into nursing education in Iran provides an opportunity to develop technologically competent nurses and improve patient-centered care. Strategies such as curriculum integration, practical workshops, regional collaboration, and ethical frameworks can overcome challenges related to faculty expertise, infrastructure, and ethical concerns. Coordinated efforts and investment in training and infrastructure will enable Iran to standardize AI competencies and strengthen its healthcare system, positioning it as a regional leader in nursing education innovation.
