Accessibility
Most people reading this site are either an older adult or someone in their fifties or sixties reading on a phone, often late at night. We have built it for that, not as an afterthought.
Last reviewed: September 2026
What we aim for
We target the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, and in several places we have deliberately gone past it — larger body text and bigger touch targets than the guidelines require, because the minimum is not always comfortable.
What that means in practice
- Larger text by default. Body text starts at 18 pixels with generous line spacing, and the whole layout is built in relative units so it scales cleanly if you zoom or set a larger default size in your browser.
- Strong colour contrast. Text meets or exceeds the 4.5:1 contrast ratio against its background throughout.
- Large touch targets. Buttons, links and form controls are at least 44 by 44 pixels, which is more than the guidelines ask for and much easier with unsteady hands.
- Full keyboard operation. Everything works without a mouse, and the element you are on always shows a visible outline. There is a “skip to main content” link at the top of every page.
- Screen reader support. Proper headings in order, real landmarks, labelled forms, descriptive link text, and alternative text on images. Errors are announced, not just coloured red.
- Reduced motion respected. If your device is set to reduce motion, animations are switched off rather than merely shortened.
- No CAPTCHAs. We block spam with invisible techniques instead. Puzzle CAPTCHAs are a real barrier for people with low vision or cognitive differences, and this is exactly the audience we would be blocking.
- Works without JavaScript. Every page can be read and every form submitted with scripting disabled or failed.
- No auto-playing anything. Nothing moves, scrolls or plays on its own.
Where we know we fall short
An honest statement should name its gaps. As of the date above:
- The comparison table on the home page scrolls sideways on a narrow screen. It is reachable by keyboard and readable by a screen reader, but it is undeniably more awkward on a phone than on a larger display.
- Photographs of the house are being added over time. Until each one is in place you will see a labelled placeholder graphic.
- The map on our contact page is a third-party embed, and we do not control its internal accessibility. The full address is always given as text next to it, so you never need the map to find us.
- We have tested with keyboard navigation, zoom and automated tooling. We have not yet completed testing with every screen reader and assistive technology combination.
If something does not work for you
Please tell us — it is the fastest way for us to fix it, and we would rather know.
Call (316) 932-3615 or email info@happycarehomeplus.com. Tell us what page you were on and what happened, and we will get back to you.
And if the website is simply not working for you, it does not matter. Nothing here is information you can only get from a screen: call us and we will talk you through anything on this site, send it to you in print, or arrange a visit.
Standards and format
If you would like anything on this site in a different format — large print, plain text, or read aloud over the phone — just ask.
