Generative AI in Everyday Clinical Practice: A Practical Guide for Busy Healthcare Professionals is the first hands-on guide designed to help clinicians safely and effectively integrate AI tools into real-world practice—without losing their professional identity or mind. With the rise of ChatGPT, Copilot, and Med-PaLM, healthcare professionals face a growing question: How do we use these powerful tools meaningfully, ethically, and efficiently in our daily work? This practical, clinician-led book answers that question—not with hype or techno-solutionism, but with clear guidance rooted in lived NHS experience. It walks readers through how generative AI can support clinical documentation, decision support, patient education, workflow automation, teaching, academic writing, and research—while emphasising human judgement, safety, and trust. Structured in five sections, the book begins with bedside use cases: writing clinic letters in minutes, summarising MDT handovers, and generating differentials for acute cases (with the clinician always in control). It then explores how educators can use AI to co-create quizzes, OSCEs, and reflective prompts, and how researchers can use tools to summarise papers, structure abstracts, and analyse datasets. A dedicated ethics section addresses privacy, governance, safety, and institutional policy, helping clinicians engage confidently with their local IG and IT teams. Finally, the guide offers an accessible starting point for prompt engineering, tool selection, in-house GPTs, and preparing for an AI-enabled future. With real-world examples, reproducible templates, and UK-specific governance insight, this book demystifies AI for clinicians at every stage—from curious FY1s to digital leaders. You don’t need to code. You don’t need to understand neural networks. You just need to know where to begin. Key features: 18 focused chapters covering clinical, teaching, research, and leadership applications Plain-English explanation of LLMs, multimodal models, and ethical principles Over 50 ready-to-use prompt templates and workflows Appendices with platform guides, glossary, case studies, and safe use declarations Emphasis on “AI as a support tool”—never a substitute for clinical reasoning Whether you're a GP, specialist, educator, or aspiring digital fellow, this is your companion for thoughtful, transformative AI adoption.
