While some routine documentation and monitoring tasks can be automated with EHR systems and AI tools, the core responsibilities—such as clinical judgment, patient education, and multidisciplinary collaboration—require human expertise, empathy, and adaptability. AI can augment decision-making and learning, but the role’s high interpersonal and real-world complexity limits full automation.
