Are you needing assistance prior to your midpoint review from an accessibility specialist, on the above item in this related ticket?

Here is the related ticket you mention in this ticket: Sitewide Content, Accessibility, and IA Review of unified appointment check-in experience from Modernized Check-in Experience #55686, it includes the following notes:

Review content that has changed in our draft wireframes (Sketch) and provide feedback. ... Our Sketch file has two rows of wireframes. The first row is the user flow for the happy path. The row of wireframes beneath it are alternative paths. There are a few comments identified for content review in the alternative paths, but overall, we'd recommend prioritizing review of the happy path from an IA and accessibility perspective. .... Some features and/or appointment types or modalities found in the wireframes will not be included in the MVP. However, those have not been identified to date. For example, past appointments. ... We have received some feedback to date on IA and accessibility through collab cycle or speaking with DK, including (notes and links in ticket).

Thank you! Sounds good.

@benbrasso-agile6 happy to help with some of your sessions. Do you have any with assistive technology we could attend? I will watch for your message in Slack. @coforma-terry also has a capacity calendar for scheduling availability.

Yes! That's what we'd love support with.

sara-amanda commented 1 year ago

Excellent @benbrasso-agile6 will watch for more information on those sessions. It looks like @SarahKay8, @coforma-terry and I were not in your channel yet, so I went ahead and added us to the Slack Channel mentioned in this ticket: check-in-experience. If we should watch a different channel for the sessions, just let me know. Thanks for the link to the capacity calendar @coforma-terry! Did you have an adjusted timeline for your testing window by chance?

sara-amanda commented 1 year ago

FYI @coforma-terry updated the name of this ticket to delineate the tasks. Included "research support" in this ticket.
