Artificial intelligence (AI) is supporting clinical decision-making processes in healthcare systems, personalizing patient care, and optimizing workflows. The aim of this narrative review is to examine the role of AI technologies in supporting physicians, nurses and physiotherapists, as well as to evaluate the barriers, ethical issues, and educational transformations associated with integration. Articles related to the topic were selected from Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus search databases using the keywords “Artificial intelligence, healthcare team, healthcare services, informatics,” without any restrictions on publication year. Findings show that clinical decision support systems increase diagnostic accuracy and, through personalized treatment planning, enhance treatment efficacy. In nursing, AI-supported monitoring systems improve patient safety while reducing administrative burden; in physiotherapy, robotic devices, wearable sensors, and machine learning-based movement analysis support rehabilitation. AI-based health education requires new competencies such as health, data, and human literacy. Key barriers include lack of algorithmic transparency, data privacy concerns, bias, and legal uncertainty regarding accountability. In conclusion, AI functions as “augmented intelligence” that complements rather than replaces healthcare professionals. Effective integration requires transparent infrastructures, clear legal boundaries, workforce training, and human-centered practices. Healthcare teams utilizing these AI-supported systems can maximize patient health outcomes.
