Try some questions from the course

Question 1 of 3

A consultant gives you advice about a patient by approved instant message. What should happen to that advice?

 

Messaging is no substitute for the record. Advice received by message is added to the medical record and the original deleted.

Lesson 1, Electronic records and secure messaging, teaches this. See the outline

Question 2 of 3

Which is a clinical hazard named in NHS England guidance on AI scribes?

 

The guidance names missing critical information, incorrect information or context, and delayed outputs as clinical hazards.

Lesson 2, AI scribes and decision support: the limits, teaches this. See the outline

Question 3 of 3

You want an AI tool to tidy up a discharge letter that names the patient. What do you check first?

 

Approved tools have been through clinical safety and data protection checks. NHS England's scribe guidance is not meant for staff using unauthorised apps on their own.

Lesson 3, Patient data in AI tools, teaches this. See the outline
