Corrections Policy

Our promise

When we publish something incorrect, we fix it quickly, openly, and at the top of the article. We don’t quietly edit history.

What counts as a correction

• Factual error — wrong name, date, number, location, attribution, or any verifiable fact.
• Misleading framing — accurate facts presented in a way that materially distorts the story.
• Missing context — significant information omitted that changes how a reasonable reader interprets the piece.

How we mark corrections

• A correction note is added at the top of the article in italics, in the form: Correction (DD Month YYYY): The original version of this article stated X. The correct figure is Y. We regret the error.
• The article’s “Updated” timestamp is set to the moment the correction goes live.
• Our newsletter republishes significant corrections in the next edition.

Minor edits vs. corrections

Typos, broken links, and routine copy edits are not flagged as corrections — we make those silently. Anything that changes meaning is treated as a correction.

How to request a correction

Email editor@nursingnews.in with:

• The article URL.
• The specific statement that’s wrong (a quote helps).
• What the correct information is, and a source we can verify.

We acknowledge correction requests within 24 hours and resolve them within 2 business days.

If we get it really wrong

For serious errors (entire premise wrong, defamatory content, etc.) we publish a separate correction notice on the homepage in addition to the article-level note, and email any sources or subjects who were materially affected.
