From Crisis to Prevention: How Ambient Monitoring Is Rewiring Healthcare Culture
Join Megan Antonelli as she speaks with Jenice Larmond, RN, BSN, MBA, Clinical Innovation & Excellence Officer at Neteera, about how radar-based ambient monitoring is rewiring clinical culture toward prevention. Discover how FDA-cleared contactless technology continuously monitors heart rate, respiration, and occupancy & motion insights through clothing and bedding—detecting subtle changes before they become crises. Learn why health systems report dramatic reductions in alert fatigue, increased early interventions, and prevention-focused care delivery. If you're building RPM, post-acute care, or aging-in-place programs centered on early detection, this conversation reveals the cultural shift happening now.

Beyond the Hype: How Ambient AI is Transforming Clinical Care with Dr. Tom Kelly of Heidi Health
Join Megan Antonelli and Dr. Tom Kelly, co-founder of Heidi Health, as he brings a unique perspective to healthcare AI. He's a vascular surgery trainee turned founder who experienced firsthand the crushing administrative burden that keeps clinicians from truly connecting with their patients. With Heidi Health now serving over 500,000 clinicians and processing more than 2 million patient visits per week, Tom shares the fascinating journey from frustrated doctor to AI innovator. We dive deep into the reality versus the hype of ambient AI adoption, why clinician-first design trumps seamless integration, and the critical difference between tools that doctors tolerate and tools they actually love. From the nuances of personalization at the sentence level to envisioning an AI care partner that handles follow-ups and coordinates care, this conversation reveals what it truly takes to build healthcare technology that makes medicine more human—not less.

Human Factors in Healthcare AI: Where Patient Safety Meets Real-World Implementation
Joining us is Kristen Miller, Co-Director of MedStar Health's Center for Diagnostic Systems Safety and Scientific Director of their National Center for Human Factors in Healthcare. As healthcare organizations invest billions in AI technologies, Kristen's research reveals that human factors engineering - the science of how humans interact with complex systems - determines whether AI becomes a safety enhancer or safety hazard, whether patients embrace or resist these tools, and whether healthcare teams achieve promised efficiencies or face new workflow disruptions.
