With the acceleration of the aging population and the increasingly prominent contradiction between the supply and demand of medical resources, the field of clinical nursing is also facing new challenges and opportunities. Embodied Intelligence (EI) is a cutting-edge branch of artificial intelligence, emphasizing that intelligent agents achieve the unity of cognition and action through dynamic interaction between physical carriers and the environment, which has injected vivid vitality into the development of clinical nursing robots. Based on this, this paper will briefly analyze the core connotation and technical characteristics of embodied intelligence, as well as the application scenarios of nursing robots in the field of clinical nursing, and look forward to the application prospects of nursing robots in the field of clinical nursing under the background of embodied intelligence, aiming to promote the deep integration of embodied intelligence technology and the field of clinical nursing.
