Using Nest Cam for Dermatology Clinic – Any Tips for Privacy & Setup?

[Bobston]

Hi everyone,
I’m helping manage a dermatologist’s clinic and website — mehdiiskandarli.com. We’re considering installing a Nest Cam in the waiting area mainly for security and visitor monitoring during off-hours.

Does anyone here have experience using Nest Cams in a clinic or small medical office? I’m especially curious about:

• Privacy settings for clinics (we don’t record audio)

• How to handle storage and remote access securely

• Any integration options with Google Workspace or alert settings that work best in non-home environments

Would appreciate any tips or best practices!

Hi @Bobston,

Thanks for reaching out to the community. I understand you are considering installing Nest Cameras for a dermatology clinic. I'm happy to share more details with you.

If you don't want to record audio with your Nest Cam, you can turn off the microphone. You can follow these instructions to disable live or recorded Nest Camera audio.

To handle storage and remote access securely, we recommend the Nest Aware subscription.

At this moment, Nest Cameras do not have the option to integrate with Google Workspace or offer alert settings optimized for non-home environments.

Feel free to keep us posted if you have more questions.

Best regards,

Gabriela
