Editorial standards
Resident safety, jurisdiction, population, authority, and named review.
Source hierarchy
Current statutes, regulations, licensing manuals, official applications, agency bulletins, Medicaid materials, adopted building/fire/accessibility rules, and local zoning or inspection documents take priority. Secondary sources cannot establish a requirement.
Required scope
Every publication must identify jurisdiction, license category, population, age range, services, funding context, bed count or occupancy assumptions, authority, effective/review date, and limits. National copy must not imply that licensing, staffing, supervision, medication, reporting, or building rules are uniform.
Qualified review
Clinical, crisis, medication, safeguarding, abuse/neglect, disability, child/youth, resident-rights, legal, licensing, Medicaid, fire/life-safety, accessibility, zoning, insurance, tax, staffing, cost, and financial claims require substantive review by appropriately qualified people. Show reviewer identity, relevant qualification, scope, and date.
Tools and product claims
Assessments and tools must publish inputs, logic, sources, jurisdiction limits, validation, error handling, and a clear statement of what they cannot determine. A paid kit must be reviewed for actual content, personalization, privacy, fulfillment, updates, refunds, and subscription operations before sale.
AI and corrections
AI-assisted drafts and answers are unverified. They cannot triage crises, determine compliance, recommend care, or replace professional judgment. Material errors trigger withdrawal, correction documentation, re-review, and prompt sitemap/feed/AI-discovery updates.
