Responsible Use Of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy

Responsible Use Of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy

At Place Medical UK, we are committed to using Artificial Intelligence (AI) safely, ethically, transparently and responsibly. We recognise the significant benefits AI can bring in reducing administrative burden, improving operational efficiency and in supporting the delivery of high-quality healthcare services. Our approach is founded on a simple principle: AI is a tool that we use to assist clinicians, not replace them. All clinical decisions remain the responsibility of appropriately qualified healthcare professionals.

Our Commitment:

Clinician-Led Care: We are committed to maintaining a clinician-led service model where professional judgement, expertise, accountability, empathy and critical thinking remain central to patient care. AI shall only be used to support clinicians and operational staff and must not replace clinical decision-making.

Human Oversight and Accountability: All AI-generated outputs must be reviewed, verified, amended where necessary and approved by the responsible clinician or member of staff. The individual signing any record remains fully accountable for its accuracy and appropriateness.

Privacy, Security and Governance: We are committed to ensuring that all AI systems operate in compliance with UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, NHS guidance where applicable and our information governance requirements. Sensitive information must not be shared with unauthorised AI systems or services.

Innovation for Better Care: We support the responsible use of approved AI technologies, including ambient clinical documentation, workflow support, administrative automation and knowledge management systems, enabling clinicians to spend less time focussed on paperwork and more time focusing on our patients and service users.

Our Request:

We invite employees, clinicians beyond our service, contractors, suppliers, technology partners and other stakeholders to support our responsible AI principles. By aligning with this commitment, you help ensure that AI within healthcare is deployed in a way that improves efficiency, enhances patient experience, protects privacy and maintains the highest standards of professional accountability.
