Sirius Health is committed to making our website and our clinic accessible to everyone, including people with disability, older people, and people who use assistive technology.
Our standard
We build and maintain this website to conform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA — the standard recommended by the Australian Human Rights Commission for public-facing services. Accessibility is considered from the start of every page, not added on afterwards.
What that means in practice
- The whole site can be used with a keyboard alone, with a clear, visible focus indicator.
- Text and interface colours meet AA contrast ratios, and we never rely on colour alone to convey meaning.
- Text can be resized and zoomed without loss of content, and pinch-zoom is never disabled.
- Images that carry meaning have descriptive alternative text; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
- Pages use clear, semantic structure and headings so screen readers can navigate easily.
- Buttons and links have large, comfortable touch targets, and we respect "reduced motion" settings.
- Plain, clear language is used wherever possible to reduce reading load.
Care in your language
Our doctors and team care for patients in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Hakka and Indonesian, and a 中文 (Chinese) version of our site is available. If you need an interpreter for your appointment, please let reception know when you book — free interpreter services are available through the Translating and Interpreting Service (TIS National).
Multilingual health information is also available from healthdirect and the NSW Multicultural Health Communication Service.
Visiting the clinic
Sirius Health is located in the Mandarin Centre, Chatswood, with lift access and step-free entry, and accessible parking within the centre. If you have specific access needs for your visit, call us on (02) 9884 9300 and we'll do our best to help.
Ongoing work
Accessibility is never "finished" — we test with keyboard navigation and screen readers and continue to improve. If you come across a page or feature that's hard to use, we genuinely want to hear about it.
