Spire Healthcare is committed to providing all of our users with equal access to our information. With accessibility as an integral and essential aspect of the design and build of our website, we employ universal design principles so that our web pages can be viewed and navigated effectively by all of our users, independent of the device they are using.
Our accessibility standards are in accordance with the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) - the internationally recognised standard produced by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). We aim to comply with all WAI priority one checkpoints as well as a range of priority two and three checkpoints identified by the Royal National Institute for the Blind.
Whilst we make every effort as we can to ensure our websites are accessible, please feel free to send us any feedback you may have. You can email our web team at
webfeedback@spirehealthcare.com.
Our website contains many links to useful information which are either coloured blue or underlined to make them easily noticeable. Links to non-Spire Healthcare websites and downloadable files such as PDF and Word may open in new windows. When your mouse hovers over these links, a short descriptive text box will appear, notifying you that a new window will be opened.
For non-mouse users and those that use screen readers, Spire Healthcare website pages can be accessed using your standard keyboard shortcuts and links are made as descriptive as possible.
Spire Healthcare website pages are designed so that you can change the style and colour of the font used, as well as the background colour.
