Our Commitment to Accessible, Barrier-Free Care
Every patient deserves seamless access to specialist endodontic care. We are committed to ensuring our facility and digital presence are fully accessible to people of all abilities.
We continually work to meet ADA compliance and WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines so that nothing stands between you and the care you need. If you encounter any barriers, our team is ready to help.
ADA Compliance & Accessibility Standards
Tri City Endodontics is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply relevant accessibility standards to our website and physical location at 5960 Burden Blvd, Pasco, WA. We believe that all patients, regardless of ability, should have full access to the information and specialized endodontic care we provide.
Standards We Follow
- WCAG 2.1 Level AA - The internationally recognized benchmark for web accessibility, covering perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust content
- ADA Title III - The Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for public accommodations, ensuring equal access to goods and services
- Section 508 - Federal standards for electronic and information technology accessibility
Accessibility is an ongoing process, not a one-time project. We regularly review our website and physical office to identify and address potential barriers. Our team is trained to understand and respond to accessibility needs in both our digital presence and our office environment at our Pasco location.
We recognize that accessibility requirements evolve as technology and best practices advance. Tri City Endodontics stays informed about changes to accessibility guidelines and works proactively to incorporate improvements as they become available. If you experience any difficulty accessing our website or need accommodation at our office, please contact us at (509) 219-3636.
Accessibility Features
We have incorporated the following accessibility features throughout our website to ensure a barrier-free experience for all visitors, regardless of ability or the assistive technologies they use.
Keyboard Navigation
All key areas of the site can be accessed and operated using a keyboard alone, without requiring a mouse or other pointing device.
Screen Reader Compatibility
Our site is structured with proper semantic HTML, ARIA labels, and landmark regions to ensure compatibility with popular screen readers and assistive technologies.
Alternative Text for Images
Descriptive alternative text is provided for all meaningful images so screen readers can convey visual content to users who are blind or have low vision.
Color Contrast
We maintain sufficient color contrast ratios between text and background elements to ensure readability for users with low vision or color vision deficiencies.
Form Labels and Instructions
All form fields include descriptive labels and clear instructions to ensure users can understand and complete forms without difficulty, including those using assistive technology.
Resizable Text
Our website supports browser-based text resizing and zoom functionality, allowing users to adjust text size according to their individual preferences without loss of content or functionality.
Ongoing Efforts
Accessibility is an ongoing commitment at Tri City Endodontics. We continuously evaluate and improve our digital and physical environments to remove barriers and provide the best possible experience for every patient and visitor who comes through our doors.
Regular Accessibility Audits
We conduct periodic reviews of our website and office facilities to identify accessibility issues and areas for improvement. These audits help us stay current with evolving standards and address new barriers as they arise. When issues are identified, we prioritize corrections based on their impact on patients and visitors.
Staff Training on Accessibility
Our team receives ongoing training on accessibility best practices, including how to assist patients with disabilities in our Pasco office and how to create accessible digital content. We believe accessibility awareness is a core part of every team member's professional development and patient care responsibilities.
Third-Party Content Limitations
While we strive to make all content on our site accessible, some third-party tools or embedded content may not be fully accessible. We do not control these external vendors but encourage them to provide accessible experiences. We will continue to evaluate and update our third-party integrations as accessible alternatives become available.

If you experience any difficulty accessing any part of our website or need assistance with an in-office accommodation, we want to hear from you. Your feedback helps us improve the accessibility of our services for all patients.
