Healing Seniors is dedicated to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We strive to provide an inclusive online experience that supports all users in accessing our services and resources with ease.
Accessibility Standards
We are committed to adhering to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, which are internationally recognized standards for web accessibility. Our goal is to meet or exceed Level AA standards to create a website that is usable for people of all abilities.
Key Accessibility Features
To make our website user-friendly and inclusive, we have implemented several accessibility features:
Keyboard Navigation: Our site is designed to be fully navigable using a keyboard, making it accessible for individuals who cannot use a mouse.
Screen Reader Compatibility: We ensure that our content is compatible with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
Alternative Text for Images: All images and graphics on our site include descriptive alt text to convey their purpose and context.
High Contrast Mode: Our website is designed to maintain readability, even for users who need high contrast between text and background.
Accessible Forms: Our online forms are built with proper labels and instructions to be usable by all individuals, including those using assistive devices.
Continuous Improvement
Accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are committed to continually improving our website to enhance usability for all users. We regularly review and update our content, design, and features to ensure that they meet current accessibility standards.
Third-Party Content
While we strive to ensure that our website content is fully accessible, there may be instances where third-party content, such as embedded videos or external links, does not meet our accessibility standards. We are actively working to provide alternative solutions and improve these areas over time.
Accessibility Tools and Resources
For individuals who need additional assistance, we recommend using the following tools:
Screen Reader Software: Popular options include NVDA (free) and JAWS (paid).
Browser Extensions: Tools like Chrome’s High Contrast or Color Enhancer can improve visibility and readability.
Speech Recognition Software: Voice control options like Dragon NaturallySpeaking can help with navigation and text input.
Our Vision
At Healing Seniors, we believe in fostering an environment of inclusivity and equal access for all. Our commitment to accessibility aligns with our core mission to support seniors and their families, making essential information and resources available to everyone.
