SEE YOU NOW

Johnson & Johnson and the American Nurses Association

On a daily basis, we trust nurses with billions of dollars of equipment, critical procedures, and our most important assets: the people we love. But they're doing so much more behind the scenes. SEE YOU NOW is a podcast that shines a light on the real people changing the status quo in health: from nurses working in labor & delivery, with infectious diseases, and in hospice; to nurse allies in politics, business, and tech. Created in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson and the American Nurses Association, SEE YOU NOW gives listeners access to meaningful conversations with the nurses at the forefront of healthcare and innovation; those developing new devices, processes, protocols, and ways to treat for infection prevention, infant health, maternal mortality, palliative care, and so much more.

    Episode 131: AI in Play | The Clinicians Shaping Healthcare Technology Part II

    There is a palpable mix of excitement and anxiety about the latest impending wave of Artificial Intelligence. AI tools are being developed that will fundamentally impact our jobs, our relationships, our access to knowledge and creativity, our children's lives, and our planet. But for an industry like healthcare — where fax machines and pagers are common, where people struggle to find affordable care or adequate resources, and nurses are leaving the profession due to administrative burdens and moral distress — can AI be an answer?  In this two-part feature of our AI in Play series, where we explore AI's role in transforming healthcare, host Oriana Beaudet, Vice President of Innovation at the American Nurses Association, Credentialing Center, and Foundation, talks with a nurse and a clinician helping to shape the future of AI in healthcare for one of the largest technology companies in the world.   Episode 130 features nurse Mary Varghese-Presti, Corporate VP and COO of Microsoft Health and Life Sciences, whose team built Dragon Copilot, the first commercially available ambient AI solution purpose-built for nursing workflows. We learn how Microsoft co-designed this tool directly with staff nurses, nurse managers, and nurse executives across more than 10 health systems,  and why that collaboration is essential. We'll learn about Microsoft's vision for a three-stage AI future, from co-pilots to agents to a true hybrid workforce, and what it would mean for nurses to have the ability to delegate tasks the way physicians have long been able to do. Finally, we hear the deeply personal story behind Mary's mission,  from growing up in an immigrant household surrounded by nurse "aunties," to advocating for a voiceless patient at 4 am as a young nurse at Johns Hopkins, to now leading the technology that she believes will restore humanity and dignity to the very profession that shaped her.  Episode 131 features Dominic King, former surgeon and VP of Health at Microsoft AI, where his team builds and scales consumer health tools that see more than 50 million health-related sessions a day. In this conversation, we learn about Microsoft's partnership with Harvard Medical School and how it's working to ensure that the billions of health questions people ask AI every day are met with credible, clinically sound information. We also hear how he thinks about patient safety and trust in AI, and we'll get his candid take on what AI cannot replace, why clinicians must be central to scaling these tools beyond the pilot stage, and how he believes technology is the single biggest lever for making health systems sustainable in the face of growing global demand.    For more information on the podcast bundles, visit ANA's Innovation Website at https://www.nursingworld.org/practice-policy/innovation/education.    Have questions or feedback for the SEE YOU NOW team?  Future episode ideas?

    As healthcare faces mounting pressures, from workforce shortages and rising costs to growing uncertainty, we're also standing at the edge of extraordinary possibility. Technological advances are reshaping how care is delivered, how research is done, and how we might finally move closer to health equity.   In 2026, SEE YOU NOW will continue its mission to bring you the stories and the people behind the headlines, from conversations with guests like Microsoft's Dominic King and Mary Presti on why nurses must help lead the AI frontier, to guest-hosted episodes with the American Nurses Association's Liz Stokes on the new Nursing Code of Ethics, and discussions with filmmakers Carolyn Jones and Lisa Frank about why representation in healthcare storytelling matters.   You'll hear voices from across the country and from major gatherings like Magnet, and through our weekly SEE YOU NOW Insights, we'll continue to share powerful moments from more than 100 episodes of nurse-led innovation, leadership, and change, while keeping a clear focus on what it truly means to invest in nursing and why it matters to all of us.  None of this is possible without you.
