What are recommendations?

Recommendations are suggested resources, communities, and other members that may be relevant to you.

We highlight recommendations in a number of places across the platform, including the Explore tab in your Newsfeed, and your Needs Assessment results.

How are the recommendations generated?

They are automatically suggested based on the information you add to your profile and the results from your needs assessment. As seen in the image below, above each section on your Explore tab, you can see some of the information that inspired those recommendations (e.g. " Because you have the following health interests..."):

How to change or improve recommendations?

The best way to improve your recommendation is by updating your profile or taking the needs assessment on HealthUnlocked. By doing this, you can make sure that you are seeing the most relevant recommendations as your health evolves and needs change over time.

We sometimes recommend other members for you to connect with. ‘Members’ recommendations work like the ‘Similar to me’ filter in your communities and suggests members with who have added similar public profile information as you.

N.b. we do not recommend members based on any hidden profile information. We always respect when someone does not want information publicly shown so we do not include this information for member recommendations.

If your profile is 100% complete and you still don't find your recommendations relevant, please get in touch to help us improve.
