When you’re searching for information about addiction, mental health, or treatment options, accuracy is crucial. At Recovery Centers of America (RCA), our educational content meets the same standards of care as the treatment we provide.
That’s why every piece of content published on our website follows a structured, multi-layer review process designed to ensure clinical accuracy, ethical integrity, and regulatory compliance.
Our Content Review Process
All RCA content goes through three required stages of review before publication:
- Expert Content DevelopmentandEditorial Oversight
Every piece of content is written and/or edited by RCA’s Director of Communications. This stage ensures content is:
- Clear, accessible, and focused on patients, families, or professionals
- Aligned with evidence-based language and best practices
- Written with empathy, dignity, integrity, and respect
Our goal is to make clinical topics understandable without oversimplifying.
- Clinical Leadership Review
Once drafted, all content is reviewed by RCA’s Vice President of Mental Health Services. This clinical review ensures that content:
- Reflects current, evidence-based treatment approaches
- Accurately represents clinical terminology and diagnoses
- Aligns with real-world treatment protocols and patient care standards
- Avoids misinformation or unsupported claims
Clinical review helps ensure that what you read online matches what our patients and families experience in care.
- Regulatory Compliance Review
Before anything is published, content undergoes a final review by RCA’s Compliance Department. This step ensures that all information:
- Meets federal and state healthcare regulations
- Aligns with ethical marketing and patient communication standards
- Avoids misleading or non-compliant claims
- Protects patient privacy and confidentiality
Compliance review safeguards the people we serve while ensuring that RCA content adheres to the highest legal and ethical standards in healthcare communication.
