Accessibility Statement

Effective August 1, 2026 · Last updated August 1, 2026

Our commitment

Dr. Hill's Family Dental is committed to making our website usable and welcoming to everyone, including people with disabilities.

We believe every patient and family should be able to find our practice, learn about our services, and reach out to us without barriers. We treat digital accessibility as an ongoing responsibility and work to improve the experience as standards evolve and as we add new content.

Our Commitment to Digital Accessibility

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for making digital content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. Our website, drhillsfamilydental.com, has been designed and built to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

Accessibility is an active, ongoing effort rather than a one-time result. Some content — particularly third-party components we embed — may not yet fully meet every criterion, and we work to identify and address those areas as they come up.

How we support accessibility

Accessibility considerations are built into how this site is designed and coded. Measures include:

Semantic structure. Pages use meaningful HTML with a single main heading and a logical heading order, so the content is easy to navigate with assistive technology.
Descriptive text alternatives. Images that convey information include descriptive alt text, while purely decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
Keyboard access. Interactive elements can be reached and operated with a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse.
Visible focus. A clear focus indicator shows which element is currently selected as you move through the page.
Readable color contrast. Text and interface colors are chosen to meet WCAG AA contrast ratios for readability.
Reduced motion. The site respects the "reduce motion" setting in your browser or operating system and limits non-essential animation.
Labeled forms. Form fields include clear labels and instructions so they can be completed with assistive technology.
Responsive, resizable text. The layout adapts to different screen sizes and remains usable when text is enlarged.

Technology & compatibility

This website relies on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WAI-ARIA for accessibility. It is designed to work with current versions of major web browsers and with common assistive technologies, including screen readers and speech recognition software.

If you use older technology or an unusual browser configuration, some features may not perform as intended. We're glad to help — please use the contact details below.

Known limitations

Despite our efforts, some content on this site is provided by third parties and is partly outside our direct control. This can include embedded maps, an online appointment or booking tool, and social media content. The accessibility of these components depends on the providers behind them.

Where a third-party feature creates a barrier, we will do our best to offer the same information or service in another accessible way. If you run into a problem, let us know and we'll help you directly.

Assessment & ongoing review

This website's accessibility was evaluated through internal review against the WCAG 2.1 Level AA success criteria during design and build. We review accessibility on an ongoing basis and update this statement as the site changes.

Ensuring Inclusive Dental Care Access

At Dr. Hill's Family Dental, we believe that high-quality dental care should be accessible to every member of our community, regardless of their physical or digital needs. By prioritizing an inclusive web experience, we ensure that all patients can easily access essential information about our dental services, office policies, and appointment scheduling tools.

Our commitment extends beyond the digital realm into our physical office environment in Orion Township. We actively strive to remove barriers to care, ensuring that every patient feels welcome and supported from their first interaction with our website to their final treatment in our dental chair.

Requesting Alternative Formats for Patient Information

If you encounter any difficulty navigating our website or require our patient forms and educational materials in an alternative format, please reach out to our administrative team. We are dedicated to providing information in ways that accommodate individual needs, including large print, screen-reader-friendly documents, or direct verbal assistance.

When contacting us, please specify the nature of the barrier you experienced and the preferred format you require. Our staff is trained to assist you promptly, ensuring that your communication with our practice remains seamless and that you receive the necessary information to manage your family's oral health effectively.
