Medical review process
Reviewed guidance. Clear boundaries.
CareID’s general emergency guides are educational reference content. Medical review applies to a specific guide version, not to an owner’s personal emergency information.

From a draft to a reviewed guide
Review follows the content version.
Define the version
CareID prepares or revises a guide under a defined content version.
Review the medical content
The reviewer checks accuracy, emergency thresholds, immediate and prohibited actions, and readability for bystanders and first responders.
Incorporate corrections
Required corrections are incorporated before the reviewed version is approved.
Match the published text
The guide displays the reviewer, review date and version only when the reviewed text and published text match.
What the review does—and does not—cover.
General guidance
A “Medically reviewed” label applies to the specific content version displayed on that guide. “Medical review pending” means the current published version has not yet been approved.
Owner-provided information
Contacts, medical details and other personal information are supplied by the owner or caregiver. Medical review of a guide does not verify these details or approve each personalized profile.
When are guides reviewed again?
Published guides are re-checked at least annually, and sooner after major medical guidance changes, a safety concern or a substantive content revision. Minor formatting or accessibility changes that preserve medical meaning may be recorded without a new medical review.
Is a guide individualized medical advice?
No. These guides are not individualized medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and are not a substitute for emergency services or professional medical judgment.
