# Clinic educational videos: check captions and transcripts

Before adding an educational video to your clinic website, approve the clinical wording and the text alternatives together. Keep the recording, captions, transcript, permissions, and publication version in files the clinic controls.

Start with one approved subject. Have the responsible clinician define its purpose and limits before editing footage or writing the page introduction.

## Name the clinical owner and audience

Identify whether the video explains office procedures, introduces a service, or provides clinician-approved education. Keep chiropractic and physical therapy roles explicit where they differ.

Have the clinical owner approve the script, on-screen text, captions, transcript, title, and surrounding page. Do not let an editor add an outcome claim or treatment instruction to improve a headline.

If footage includes identifiable people or private information, resolve the exact publication permissions before using it. Keep permission records with the approved media version.

## Check captions against the finished audio

W3C describes captions as synchronized text for speech and relevant non-speech audio. It says automatic captions are insufficient unless confirmed fully accurate. [W3C caption guidance, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.w3.org/WAI/media/av/captions/).

Use automatic output as a draft when appropriate. Require a person to compare it with the final edited video. Have the clinician check professional terms and any wording that changes the meaning of an instruction.

Do not treat a checked script as proof that the caption file matches the finished recording. Editing can change the spoken sequence. Review the actual published media version.

## Give visual information an appropriate text explanation

W3C distinguishes a basic transcript of audio from a descriptive transcript that also includes important visual information. [W3C transcript guidance, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.w3.org/WAI/media/av/transcripts/).

Ask the clinical owner and accessibility evaluator what information a viewer needs beyond the spoken words. Keep descriptions accurate to the footage without adding new clinical advice.

For a movement demonstration, have the clinician review any description of the action. Do not ask a website editor to infer technique, suitability, repetitions, or safety instructions from the image.

## Keep a complete source package

Use this proposed handoff list for each approved video:

| File or record | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Original recording | Source for later edits |
| Approved script | Clinical wording and audience limits |
| Final media file | Exact version approved for publication |
| Caption file | Checked timed text for that version |
| Transcript | Approved audio and visual explanation |
| Permission record | Cleared publication scope |
| Page brief | Title, context, service link, and contact route |
| Acceptance note | Tested version and unresolved findings |

Give the clinic an agreed export of its materials. Record who can change the hosted video and who retains the source files after a provider handoff.

## Test the version visitors receive

Ask the evaluator to check playback, caption selection, keyboard controls, and transcript access in the published layout. Check that text does not cover information needed to understand the demonstration.

Have the clinician compare the final media and alternatives again after a substantive edit. Keep unresolved findings visible in the acceptance record. Do not claim that adding captions alone establishes complete accessibility.

Link the relevant [clinic service page](/articles/chiropractic-physical-therapy-service-pages) where a reader needs approved service context. Keep individual clinical questions in the clinic's professional process.

Bring the source package and repair list to the [chiropractic and physical therapy clinic hub](/for/chiropractic-and-physical-therapy-clinics). Ask Scale With Search to include the media page and acceptance checks in your [written website scope](/work).
