Accessibility Statement

Last Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2026

Harbour Dental Care is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all patients and website visitors, including individuals with disabilities. As a healthcare provider, we believe access to dental information, appointment scheduling, and patient resources should be available to everyone.

We strive to ensure that our website conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, which are recognized as the prevailing technical standard for accessibility under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Our Accessibility Efforts

We have taken steps to enhance the usability and accessibility of our website, including:

• Using semantic HTML structure to support assistive technologies
• Providing alternative text for meaningful images
• Designing navigation that is accessible via keyboard
• Maintaining color contrast consistent with WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines
• Ensuring form fields are clearly labeled
• Providing accessible error identification and messaging where applicable
• Supporting compatibility with common screen readers and assistive software

Accessibility is an ongoing process. We periodically review our website and implement improvements as part of our commitment to providing meaningful access to all patients.

Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our website is designed to function with commonly used assistive technologies, including screen readers (such as JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver), speech recognition software, keyboard-only navigation, and built-in browser magnification tools.

Visitors may also adjust personal device settings to enhance readability and usability, including increasing text size, adjusting contrast settings, enabling captions, or using voice navigation tools.

Third-Party Content

Some areas of our website may include third-party integrations, such as appointment scheduling platforms, payment portals, maps, or embedded tools. While we make reasonable efforts to work with vendors who prioritize accessibility, we may not control all aspects of third-party content. We encourage users to notify us if they encounter difficulty with any integrated feature.

If you experience difficulty accessing any information on this website, please contact our office directly. Our team is available to provide assistance, schedule appointments, answer questions about treatments, or provide requested information in an alternative format.

We are committed to responding to accessibility inquiries promptly and making reasonable modifications where appropriate to ensure patients can access our services.
