to bring AI tools onto an ambulance shift, in practice, not in theory.</p>

<p>Most of what gets written about AI in medicine is either very technical
or very abstract. I want this blog to sit in between — short, specific
posts about real calls (details changed, obviously), real documentation
problems, and the small workflow changes that end up mattering.</p>

<p>A few things I’m planning to write about:</p>

<ul>
  <li>How I use ChatGPT mid-shift to think through a differential when a
presentation doesn’t fit a textbook pattern.</li>
  <li>What actually slows down documentation after a call, and what doesn’t.</li>
  <li>What I’m learning as a medical student that changes how I work as a
paramedic, and vice versa.</li>
  <li>Notes on HealthTech tools and ideas worth watching, from someone who’s
actually in the back of the ambulance.</li>
</ul>

<p>If any of that is useful to you, or you’re working on something similar,
<a href="/contact/">reach out</a> — I’d like to compare notes.</p>]]></content><author><name>Daniel Viedienin</name></author><summary type="html"><![CDATA[On writing about the overlap between ambulance shifts and HealthTech, and why documenting it matters more than getting it polished.]]></summary></entry></feed>
