Chris Cheetham-West, internationally recognized AI speaker, author, and founder and president of LR Training Solutions—an international corporate training company that helps brands move forward with AI and other business strategies—will be speaking at an upcoming healthcare leadership event in Des Moines. The gathering brings together hospital executives, administrators, and clinicians to address today’s most pressing challenges while exploring strategies to advance the future of care.
Cheetham-West’s session, “AI in Health Care: Real World Tools You Can Use Today to Boost Efficiency and Reduce Workload,” will highlight the practical ways hospitals and healthcare organizations can leverage artificial intelligence to improve efficiency, enhance patient experience, and support staff across multiple departments. From human resources and IT to clinical operations and finance, AI has the potential to reduce workloads, strengthen decision-making, and help healthcare teams focus more on patients and less on administrative burden.
“As hospital leaders face mounting staffing and financial pressures, the role of AI in transforming how organizations operate is more critical than ever,” said Cheetham-West. “When applied strategically, AI empowers healthcare teams to streamline tasks, improve accuracy, and deliver higher-quality patient care. It’s not about replacing people—it’s about supporting them to do their best work.”
The conference is designed to inspire and recharge healthcare leaders while offering opportunities for collaboration and professional development. Topics include artificial intelligence and data, clinical leadership, finance, innovation, healthcare policy, workforce challenges, and strategies for sustaining positive change. Attendees will gain valuable insights into navigating today’s evolving healthcare landscape while strengthening their organizations’ ability to serve communities effectively.
