Declaration on accessibility

Easy language

You are on the website of the GPR Health and
Care Center in Rüsselsheim.

Its short name is GPR. You can

find this
website at www.gp-ruesselsheim.de.

 

 

 

What “web accessibility” means


A barrier is an obstacle.
The German language can be a barrier
for people with disabilities.

A disability can be, for example,

  • a learning disability,
  • an illness, or
  • a different native language.

 

Everyone should be able to understand the information
on this website.
This is called accessibility. There are
rules for accessibility.

These rules are set forth in laws.
They are called:

  • The Disability Equality Act (BGG)
  • Regulation on Accessible Information Technology (BITV)

 

We have tested our website.
We have checked:

  • Where are there barriers on the website?
  • What is already accessible?

We have documented the results.
They are included in this statement.

 

 


There are still barriers here


Our website still has barriers.


There are many images and graphics on our website.
Images and graphics must have descriptions.
This is important for blind people. The descriptions
help blind people understand
what is shown in the images.
Some images and graphics are missing descriptions.


Videos must have captions.
A caption is a strip of text.
The text explains what is happening in the video.
Captions are important for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Many videos lack captions.
 

You can navigate the
website using the keyboard.
This is also called controlling the site
. A cursor moves across the fields.
This feature is not always available on our website. In
these cases, we offer an alternative option.
 

Our website contains PDF files.
These are information sheets with images and text
that you can download.
We want to make PDF files accessible.
This takes time.

 

 

 

That is why there are still barriers


The GPR is working on improvements. Our website
contains a lot of information. We aim to
reduce these barriers.
This is a lot of work for us.
It will take us a long time.

Our website should be accessible to everyone.
