Clinic Verification Log

How local clinic data should be verified, dated, and corrected for CatEmergency.org market pages.

Policy points

  • Every clinic listing should include source URL, last source check date, area, phone, address, and a call-before-travel caveat.
  • Emergency capacity, opening hours, and species capability can change and must be verified before travel.
  • Listings are routing aids, not endorsements.
  • Neighborhood pages should only exist where real clinic data supports them.

Operational checklist

  • Visible page text and schema must match.
  • Medical claims require reputable veterinary sources.
  • Emergency pages must prioritize veterinary assessment.
  • Changes affecting urgency wording require veterinarian approval before review claims are shown.
