Committed to Equal Access

Next Step Health Partners is committed to making our website and digital information accessible to individuals with disabilities. We strive to provide an inclusive online experience and to reduce barriers that may prevent someone from accessing or understanding information available through our website.

We use recognized accessibility practices, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), as a guide for ongoing website improvements. Our goal is to make our website easier to perceive, understand, navigate, and use across different devices, browsers, and assistive technologies.

Our goal: Provide an accessible experience and continue improving our website as technology, accessibility practices, and user needs evolve.

Accessibility Practices We Strive to Maintain

We work to incorporate accessibility considerations throughout our website. Depending on the content and functionality, these practices may include:

01

Keyboard Navigation

We work to make important website functions, links, buttons, and navigation usable through keyboard controls without requiring a mouse.

02

Screen Readers

We strive to structure website content in a way that supports commonly used screen readers and other assistive technologies.

03

Alternative Text

Meaningful images are intended to include alternative text or other appropriate text-based descriptions when needed.

04

Color & Contrast

We work to provide sufficient contrast and avoid relying solely on color to communicate important information.

05

Text & Zoom

We strive to allow users to enlarge or resize text using standard browser and device accessibility features.

06

Clear Navigation

We use clear headings, sections, navigation elements, links, and buttons to make information easier to locate and understand.

Accessible Forms and Website Interactions

When forms are available on our website, we strive to provide understandable labels, instructions, and information necessary to complete the form.

Clear Labels

Form fields should identify the information being requested and provide understandable instructions when appropriate.

Instructions

We work to provide useful instructions when information is required or when additional clarification may be helpful.

Error Information

We strive to make form errors understandable and provide information that helps users correct problems.

Links & Buttons

We work to make links and buttons distinguishable and understandable based on their purpose.

Documents, Videos & Other Content

If we provide downloadable documents, PDFs, videos, audio, or other digital content, we will work to make that content accessible when reasonably practicable.

01
Documents & PDFs

We will work to provide accessible documents when documents are made available through our website.

02
Video Content

When video content is provided, we will work to include captions or other appropriate accessibility features when applicable.

03
Audio Content

When audio-only information is provided, we will work to provide an appropriate text alternative when applicable.

Third-Party Websites & Services

Our website may contain links, tools, scheduling services, forms, embedded content, or other functionality provided by third parties. These services may include insurance company websites, scheduling platforms, analytics services, or other external resources.

Because these services are operated by third parties, we may not control their accessibility features or accessibility practices. If you experience difficulty accessing third-party content that is necessary to obtain information or complete an interaction with us, please contact us and we will try to assist you through an alternative available method.

Important: Third-party websites and services have their own accessibility practices and policies. We cannot guarantee the accessibility of websites or services that we do not own or control.
