Accessibility Statement

Our commitment to digital accessibility for all users

Last Updated: December 4, 2025

Our Commitment

Star Medical Wellness is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards to provide equal access to our website and services.

We believe that everyone should be able to access healthcare information and services, regardless of their abilities. Accessibility is not just a legal requirement—it's the right thing to do.

Conformance Status

We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards issued by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and user-friendly for everyone.

Level AA conformance means our website aims to meet all Level A and Level AA success criteria. This level of conformance indicates a higher level of accessibility and is recommended for websites serving the public.
