Foot Care
We provide comprehensive foot care services. The service includes:
- Interview and history taking.
- Assessment of the feet and nail, ambulation, environment, foot wear, skin condition, circulation, cutting and filing nails, removing/reducing corns and calluses.
- Education through sharing assessment, and talking about prevention/management.
According to the Lower mainland Foot Care Nurses Association – “Foot care nurses treat a client by cutting and filing nails, reducing corns and calluses non- invasively within our scope of practice. Provide education to clients so they can improve their own foot care to prevent pain and complications (includes assessment of foot wear, aids etc). Refer client to relevant healthcare specialties.”
