Enhancing AI Literacy in Healthcare

Trouvez, based in Minato City, Tokyo, is launching a series of educational sessions focused on the safe and effective use of generative AI in medical settings. As digital technologies like generative AI and cloud services become increasingly prevalent in healthcare, there is a pressing need for comprehensive digital literacy training among healthcare professionals.

The integration of generative AI for documentation, information organization, and workflow efficiency is rapidly expanding; however, these advancements come with significant challenges. Handling sensitive patient information raises concerns about data breaches, the unauthorized use of information, and incidents related to social media. For healthcare institutions, the ramifications of data breaches can extend far beyond individual patient impacts, affecting the trust and reputation of the hospital itself.

Recent incidents, including cyberattacks leading to service interruptions and ransomware attacks, have highlighted the vulnerabilities faced by small hospitals and clinics. Often lacking dedicated IT personnel, these institutions struggle to provide adequate education and training for their staff. Despite the technical nature of many security incidents, a significant number stem from human error—missteps often resulting from a lack of awareness or understanding.

Through their experience in conducting information security audits and supporting ISMS (Information Security Management System) operations, Trouvez has realized that enhancing the digital literacy of staff is key to preventing incidents. Consequently, they have designed training sessions aimed at various personnel, including doctors, nurses, and administrative staff, underlining the importance of cultivating an understanding that can prevent serious accidents.

These sessions will cover numerous relevant topics, using practical examples and straightforward explanations. Rather than banning the use of generative AI, the goal is to establish guidelines for its safe and beneficial application in healthcare settings. This initiative aims to enhance information literacy across medical institutions.

Training Themes

• - Theme A: Fundamentals of Generative AI to Prevent Major Incidents
• - Theme B: Introduction to Personal Information for Medical Professionals
• - Theme C: Learning from Near Misses in Information Management in Healthcare
• - Theme D: Evaluating Information Risks in the Era of Photos, Line, and Reviews
• - Theme E: Basic Security Measures Required in the Age of AI

Participants can choose from various themes based on their organization's needs and objectives. Sessions can be tailored for single occurrences as well.

• - Format: Available online or in-person
• - Duration: Each session lasts for 60 minutes
