At Mykare Health, our mission is to deliver trustworthy, accessible, and accurate information to support your health and wellness journey. Our established Editorial Process ensures that we consistently offer the highest quality information.
Developed by our efficient Content Team backed by true Journalism ethics and experience, our Editorial Process is the foundation of our work. But what does this process entail? How do we ensure every piece of content meets our rigorous standards?
Our content creation and editing are guided by the four pillars of our editorial process:
(1) earning and maintaining trust
(2) upholding high journalistic standards
(3) prioritising accuracy, empathy, and inclusivity, and
(4) continual monitoring and updating of content.
These pillars ensure you receive timely, evidence-based information.
Health information can often be confusing, overwhelming, and inaccurate. We aim to change that by providing content that is trustworthy, accurate, evidence-based, clear, understandable, accessible, empathetic, and actionable.
Our content addresses total well-being and emphasises the connection between health and lifestyle, which we call "whole person health." We cover a diverse range of topics and viewpoints objectively and openly. We recognize that health journeys vary, and we stand for inclusivity and empathy, offering support free of judgement.
