I was explicitly taught google search skills in nursing school. It focused on how to look for results from major medical journals, the CDC / FDA, articles written by well known MDs/DOs specialists, and how to find manufacturers' manuals / YouTube tutorials for obscure medical devices. I was explicitly taught that my future was probably going to include looking up the manufacturer's YouTube channel to find out how to access my cancer patient's obscure chest port by a 60y/o instructor who clearly voiced how insane that was compared to her work experience.

For better or for worse AI's gonna end up in class somehow too, I'm just hoping it's late enough down the line that it's been standardized to super basic shit like fuzzy matching search results and advanced grammar / spellcheck. One of our sister hospitals is trialing a service that can generate a flowsheet column for review from listening to a narration of a head-to-toe and I don't immediately hate that. Actually you know what would be a really cool use? Fuzzy matching name alerts in the unit patient list. Had two obscurely spelled patient names that sounded very similar the other day with a matching last initial that didn't trigger name alert highlighting on the board. An llm might be able to catch the sound-alike with a little more flexibility than the current algorithm.
