Editorial policy
How we write and review care guidance
Care guidance can affect serious decisions, so UK Care Advisor separates general explanation from professional advice and official routes.
Pages use named public sources where important facts can change, and sensitive values are kept in dated data records.
The editorial aim is practical clarity rather than volume.
Review model
- High-stakes pages show publication, review and next review dates.
- Changeable rates and thresholds are stored in dated records.
- Official sources are preferred for funding, benefits, regulators and assessments.
- Reviewer fields are shown only when a genuine named reviewer has reviewed the page.
Corrections
Readers can flag a correction through the corrections page. If a correction affects safety, funding or eligibility, the page should be reviewed before promotional updates or new content work.
