How we develop our health information

Dr Karen Marshall and Dr Graham Burns are responsible for creating and updating the information on our website.

They follow the highest standards to make sure the information is easy to understand, up to date, based on the latest evidence, medically correct and relevant to people with lung conditions.

We want everyone to understand the information we provide by:
• Using plain English
• Using short, simple sentences
• Explaining medical or technical language
• Using pictures, diagrams and animations to support the text
• Use Recite me to enable the words to be read out for them on each page if needed.
• Use gender inclusive language to help all readers feel included.
• Including people with lung problems to check the content is easy to understand and is helpful information they need.

We review the information every 2 years.
