Jordan to Host Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Conference in October

Amman, July 26 (Petra) – The Jordanian Nursing Council signed a
memorandum of understanding with software company ZeeDimension to
organize an international conference on artificial intelligence (AI)
in medicine, nursing, and digital health, scheduled for October
25–26, with local and international participation.

Council Secretary-General Hani Nawafleh said during the signing that
the partnership aims to expand the use of artificial intelligence in
health sciences. He said the initiative would support comprehensive
digital transformation and improve the quality of medical and nursing
services in the Kingdom.

Nawafleh said the conference reflects Jordan’s role as a regional hub
for healthcare innovation and provides a global platform for
physicians, nurses, and decision-makers to exchange knowledge and
discuss the latest AI developments, including early diagnosis,
improved clinical decision-making, and sustainable healthcare
systems.

He noted that the agreement includes accredited continuing
professional development (CPD) programs and specialized workshops to
strengthen healthcare professionals’ skills in digital
transformation, smart hospital development, data analytics, health
education, clinical simulation, and digital risk management.

Nawafleh invited healthcare, academic, and technology professionals
to participate in the international event, which will feature
specialized scientific sessions, innovation presentations, and
international experiences aimed at helping shape the future of
healthcare in Jordan and the region.

ZeeDimension Executive Director Ezzedine Hattab said the conference
represents a significant step in Jordan’s healthcare digital
transformation, adding that its primary objective is to move AI
technologies from theory into practical application to improve
patient outcomes and develop medical systems.

He said the event would focus on the responsible and safe use of
technology by adopting explainable AI principles and keeping humans
at the center of decision-making, ensuring that technology supports
healthcare professionals rather than replaces them.

Hattab added that the conference seeks to equip healthcare
professionals with tools that accelerate decision-making and reduce
their workloads.

He said the conference would also strengthen networking between
national institutions and international organizations and attract
leading global expertise to translate its outcomes into long-term
initiatives serving the healthcare sector and reinforcing Jordan’s
position as a destination for health technology investment.
