By the end, the learner can
- Regulatory compliance monitoring: tasks AI tools to track updates to local, state, and federal acupuncture practice regulations, then personally evaluates applicability and integrates relevant changes into clinic policy.
- Regulatory documentation review: uses an AI assistant to scan draft maintenance and compliance records for missing required fields or regulatory inconsistencies, then authors all corrections and attestations personally.
- Incident report drafting: generates a structured first draft of equipment-malfunction or adverse-event reports with AI support, editing for clinical accuracy and facility compliance before submission.

- generates a structured first draft of equipment-malfunction or adverse-event reports with AI support, editing for clinical accuracy and facility compliance before submission.
- 15 minEvidence logWork the task on your own first. Support is available, but ask for it out loud so the group hears what got you stuck.
- Tools in play: Medical software, Spreadsheet software, Office suite software.
- 10 minCompare readingsCompare answers before the debrief. Where the room split is the useful part — the split usually marks a real judgment call rather than a knowledge gap.
- Where did two people read the same situation differently, and what did each notice?
- Which answer would survive a supervisor asking "why did you do it that way?"
- 10 minWhat the record showedClose the loop: what changed between the first attempt and the last, and what would have to be true for data & privacy judgment to hold up on a bad day.
