What this means for your practice
Assign responsibility to a role that can verify the subject. Keep editorial production, factual checking and final approval visible as separate steps when different people perform them.
An example to discuss with your team
Simulate a changed appointment policy and ask the named owner to locate and correct every affected passage before approving the update.


What to discuss with your agency
Ask the agency who should approve a location change, a booking-process change and a specialist statement. Those may be different people. Keep their responsibilities visible in the publishing process and appoint cover. A finished draft should not sit indefinitely because nobody knows whose answer is needed.
Put the brief into practice
Assign review responsibility while planning the article, not when the final draft is waiting to publish. The owner needs a practical way to obtain answers from the service, including cover when a specialist reviewer is unavailable. Separate factual questions from stylistic preferences so the review does not become a long discussion in which nobody settles whether the information is correct. Keep approved facts and unresolved questions visible to the writer. Give the finished page a trigger for review, such as a change of location, booking process or service provision.
A calendar reminder can help, but it should not replace updates prompted by actual changes. Ask the owner to locate every place a sample fact appears, including headings, captions and downloads. That reveals whether the review process covers what readers see. Record the accepted version and who confirmed it so the next editor can understand its status without reconstructing an old email chain.
How to check the result
Measure the proportion of published service content with an active owner and recorded review trigger.
