Accessibility statement

Digital accessibility on ruhepol.de: so that our content reaches everyone.

Our commitment

Ruhepol Health Organization GmbH is committed to equal opportunities in digital healthcare. That is why our own website should also be easy to read and easy to use for everyone, regardless of age, eyesight or disability.

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1, conformance level AA) and the European standard EN 301 549.

This statement applies to the website ruhepol.de and all its subpages.

Accessibility status

Largely accessible

This statement was prepared on 25 October 2026.

It is based on a self-assessment according to WCAG 2.1 AA: a review of keyboard operation, colour contrast, text alternatives, heading structure and zoom on computers and smartphones.

Ongoing

Regular review

We check new content before it is published and update this statement whenever the accessibility status changes.

Accessibility tools

Visual and audio support on every page

On every page you will find our yellow accessibility symbol (a person with outstretched arms): on a computer at the right edge of the screen, where it stays at reading height as you scroll; on a smartphone at the bottom right, within easy reach of your thumb. Click it to open the tools.

Magnifier

Switch it on once and it shows the text you point at with your mouse or reach with the keyboard, greatly enlarged at the bottom of the screen.

Text size

Enlarges the text on all pages in several steps up to 175 %. The page rearranges itself automatically and nothing is cut off.

Read aloud

Switch it on once and you decide: every text block is outlined in yellow as soon as you point at it. Click it, and exactly this block is read aloud.

Use the small × to minimise the tools; they then remain available as a symbol at the top right of the header. Your settings are stored only locally in your browser, without cookies and without third-party services. Reading aloud uses the speech output of your browser or operating system.

The RUHEPOL® accessibility tools are a digital product of Ruhepol Health Organization GmbH, designed and developed by Wolfgang F. Mosebach.

For any website

The RUHEPOL® accessibility tools as a bookmark

Would you like to use the magnifier, page size and read aloud on other websites too? Drag the yellow button into your browser's bookmarks bar while holding down the mouse button. After that, one click on the bookmark “RUHEPOL® accessibility tools” is enough on any website.

RUHEPOL® accessibility tools

  1. Show the bookmarks bar: in Chrome and Edge with Ctrl + Shift + B, in Firefox via menu › Bookmarks › Show bookmarks toolbar.
  2. Drag the yellow button into the bar while holding down the mouse button and release it.
  3. Click the new bookmark on any website: the tools open at the right edge. Another click opens or closes the menu.

The tools are entirely contained in the bookmark: nothing is loaded from the internet and no data is transmitted. Some particularly secured websites do not allow bookmark programs. The enlarged page size applies until the page is reloaded. Intended for desktop browsers; creating it on tablets and smartphones is cumbersome.

Also on every page

Designed for accessibility

  • Fully operable by keyboard, with a clearly visible focus indicator
  • “Skip to content” link at the top of the page and a clear heading structure for screen readers
  • Text alternatives for all meaningful images; AI-generated images are labelled as such
  • Sufficient colour contrast and easy-to-read text without hyphenation
  • Buttons stand out from the background with a darker outline (contrast at least 3 : 1 according to WCAG 2.1, success criterion 1.4.11); arrows on light buttons are white on blue
  • The layout adapts to smartphones, tablets and browser zoom (Ctrl and +)
  • Your device's “reduce motion” setting is respected
