Why Snippets Matter

Snippets are shortcuts for reusable text. They save time and reduce repetition in your notes.
Think of them as your personal “/ commands” — one keystroke brings up full exam findings, plans, or counseling phrases.
Access your Snippets at the bottom-left corner of Vero.

Browsing Snippets

In the Snippets tab, you’ll find two libraries:

My Snippets

Personal shortcuts you’ve built for your own workflow.

Public Snippets

Ready-made snippets shared by the Vero community.
Use the search bar to find what you need quickly.

Creating a Snippet

Click + Create Snippet and complete three fields:
  1. Shorthand – a short memorable trigger
    • Example: /pna
  2. Content – the text block to insert.
    • Example: “Community-acquired pneumonia. Vitals stable. Oxygenation adequate on room air. Patient prescribed antibiotics.”
  3. Description (optional) – helps you remember its purpose.

Quick Access

Type / in any note to see your snippet dropdown.

Reusable Blocks

Insert the same text across multiple templates and encounters.

Using Snippets in Notes

When typing in your note, just enter / and a dropdown menu of snippets will appear. Click or press enter and it inserts instantly. This makes it easy to standardize and speed up common documentation.

Common Use Cases

  • Physical exam findings – e.g., “Vitals stable. Alert and oriented x3…”
  • Counseling phrases – lifestyle, diet, smoking cessation.
  • Medication counseling – side effects, dosing instructions.
  • Plans – discharge, follow-up, referrals.
  • Procedures – knee injection steps, consent language.
Snippets are especially powerful when combined with Templates and Learnings. Templates give structure, Learnings personalize the style, and Snippets fill in the details instantly.
