Zoom Clinical Notes Training Guide
Everything you need to know about capturing, managing, and completing clinical notes in Zoom Workplace for Clinicians.

This guide covers how to use Zoom Clinical Notes from start to finish — capturing notes during a visit, reviewing and editing them, copying to your EHR, and managing note lifecycle. Keep it handy as a quick reference.

01   How to Capture Clinical Notes

Start capturing AI-generated clinical notes in five steps. Notes are created automatically from your Zoom visit audio.

Quick Start Steps

1
Start your Zoom meeting and click the Clinical Note icon on the toolbar.
2
Look for the Pulsating EKG indicator at the top right of the meeting window. This confirms the note is actively recording.
3
Add patient details (optional). You can enter patient name or identifier to help organize the note later.
4
Choose your template. The default template is Follow-up. You can change it to match your visit type.
5
End the meeting. Within about a minute, you'll receive an email from Zoom with a link to review your note. You can also access it in the Zoom Workplace desktop app under Clinical Notes in the left sidebar.
