Accessibility Statement

Inspire Dental Wellness is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability. We work to make the Site usable for visitors who use assistive technologies — including screen readers, voice navigation, screen magnifiers, and keyboard-only navigation — and for visitors who experience visual, auditory, motor, cognitive, or other access needs.

Standards we follow

Our goal is to conform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, the standard published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). WCAG 2.1 AA defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities.

Compatibility

The Site is designed to be compatible with current versions of major browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) and major assistive technologies (VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, NVDA and JAWS on Windows, TalkBack on Android). We test the Site regularly using automated accessibility audits and periodic manual review.

What we do

• Use semantic HTML so that screen readers can navigate page structure
• Provide descriptive text alternatives for meaningful images
• Maintain sufficient color contrast for text and interactive elements per WCAG 2.1 AA
• Ensure all interactive elements (links, buttons, form fields) are keyboard-accessible
• Label form fields clearly and provide error messages that screen readers can announce
• Avoid using color alone to convey information
• Allow text to be resized up to 200% without loss of content or functionality

Known limitations

We are continuously improving the Site. Some content may not yet fully meet our accessibility goals. Known limitations as of the date above:

• Embedded third-party content (such as Google Maps, YouTube videos, social media feeds, and CareCredit application widgets) may have accessibility limitations outside our direct control. We provide alternative ways to access the underlying information where possible.
• Older blog posts published before our current accessibility standards were adopted may not yet meet WCAG 2.1 AA in every respect. We update these as we encounter them.

Accommodations and feedback

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of the Site. If you have suggestions for how we can improve, please tell us.

In-office accessibility

Our Orland Park office is accessible to patients with mobility, hearing, vision, and cognitive needs. If you need a specific accommodation for your visit — for example, an interpreter, written materials in larger type, extended appointment time, or sensory accommodations — please tell our front desk when you schedule and we will make arrangements.

Ongoing commitment

Accessibility is not a one-time project. We treat the Site as continuously evolving, and we incorporate accessibility into every redesign, page rebuild, and new feature. We build accessibility directly into the Site itself — through semantic markup, native keyboard support, and tested color contrast — rather than relying on a third-party accessibility overlay or widget.
