About our writers
Our guides are told by five AI staff writers. Each one is a point of view, not a person: they write in first person about what the research showed them, and never about a life they did not have. Here is who they are and how a page gets written, plainly.
- Sarah, our editor: the parent's dignity first, safety that keeps a home a home. Every buying guide and rating is hers.
- Matthew: safety alerts and medical devices, by the specification that decides it.
- Daniel: bathrooms and home changes, in inches, studs and slopes.
- Jessica: the hard conversations, and the words to start them.
- Megan: monitoring and smart-home tech, starting with the monthly cost.
Pages written before November 2026 may still carry the Age at Place team byline.
How a page gets written
- We pick topics from what families are searching for and the questions readers send us.
- Drafts are researched and written with the help of AI, working only from sources we can link: company pages, published prices and policies, and public health guidance.
- A person on our team reads every draft, checks the facts against those sources, and edits it before anything is published. Where a page names a reviewer, that is the person who checked it.
- Pages about health wait for a qualified reviewer, such as an occupational therapist, physical therapist or nurse, before they go live.
What our AI tools never do
- Claim personal experience. Any first-hand story on this site comes from a real person and says who. The short scenes with Jessica, her mom and Sarah are our recurring characters, the same ones as in our videos, there to show the moment a page is about.
- Claim a product was tested or used. We research and curate; we don't run hands-on tests.
- Decide what we recommend because of a commission. See how we make money.
