Aiva Nurse Assistant voice charting pilot
Cedars-Sinai nurses reported less documentation work during an Aiva voice charting pilot
Problem
Nurses had extensive documentation duties alongside patient care. Cedars-Sinai wanted to reduce time spent entering observations into electronic records.
Approach
Nursing and information services teams worked with Aiva Health on a mobile assistant. Nurses dictated observations on hospital-issued iPhones, and conversational AI mapped the data to Epic fields. Clinicians checked the entries before accepting them into the record.
Results
No published figures
Takeaway
The workflow retained clinician approval before filing observations. Nurses reported time savings, but Cedars-Sinai had not published a quantified reduction.
