Medical review

Who reviews clinical content.

Every clinical page on NursingFloor is reviewed by a credentialed clinician before publication and re-reviewed annually. This page lists who reviews what and how the process works.

The rule

Anything clinical on this site (care plans, drug references, lab references, condition guides, clinical procedures, NCLEX clinical content) goes through a credentialed clinician before it publishes. The reviewer signs off on accuracy, currency, and consistency with authoritative guidance.

Non-clinical pages (path planning, financial aid, application process, licensure overviews) are reviewed by editors with nursing-education backgrounds. We mark these as editor-reviewed rather than medically reviewed so the trust signal stays honest.

What the reviewer checks

  • Clinical accuracy: every fact, value, dose, lab range, mechanism, and adverse-effect callout matches authoritative sources
  • Currency: guidance reflects current evidence-based protocols, not outdated practice
  • Safety language: no recommendations that could harm a patient when followed by a student or new nurse
  • Scope discipline: education-only framing, no individual medical advice
  • Internal consistency: cross-page facts agree (a drug guide and a care plan referring to the same medication say the same thing)

Review cadence

Each clinical page carries two dates in its frontmatter:

  • reviewedAt: date of the most recent review
  • nextReviewAt: date by which the page returns to review

Default cadence is annual. Pages can be flagged for sooner review when a relevant guideline lands (FDA warning, NCSBN test plan update, new evidence-based protocol).

What the byline means

Every reviewed clinical page renders a visible byline:

Medically reviewed by [Name, Credentials] · Last reviewed [Date]

The reviewer named in the byline is the clinician personally accountable for the medical accuracy of that page at that date. When a page is updated, the byline date refreshes only after the new content has been re-reviewed.

Limitations

Review confirms accuracy at the date of review against currently available evidence. It does not guarantee:

  • That the content is right for an individual patient situation (we publish education, not personalized care advice)
  • That a new guideline has not been published since the review date
  • That facility-specific protocols match what we describe

Students and clinicians remain responsible for applying judgment to the situation in front of them.
