Our Commitment to Accessibility

Schmidt and Berkers Family Dentistry is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We strive to ensure our digital presence follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. 

Actions Taken to Ensure Compliance

We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website. Our current efforts include: 

• Alternative Text: Providing descriptive “alt text” for all informative images to assist screen-reader users.
• Keyboard Navigation: Ensuring all interactive elements, such as menus and contact forms, can be fully navigated using a keyboard alone.
• Contrast & Readability: Utilizing high-contrast color schemes (minimum 4.5:1 ratio) and scalable fonts that can be resized up to 200% without loss of functionality.
• Video Access: Including captions or transcripts for any video content to assist users with hearing impairments.
• Consistent Structure: Using logical heading structures (H1, H2, H3) to aid navigation for assistive technologies. 

Assistive Technology Compatibility

This website is designed to be compatible with modern browsers and common assistive technologies, such as: 

• Screen readers (e.g., JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver).
