2.36.1 WCAG 2.4.6 (AA) - Desktop

On the Patient Details Monitoring page, patient details (such as their NHS number, date of birth, and phone number) are displayed to users. However, there are no labels identifying this data, visually or programmatically. This could be confusing for users since it may not be immediately obvious what these details are.

2.36.2 Recommendation

Include identifying labels for these details, e.g: ‘NHS Number: 968 636 7705, Gender : F’ and so on.
