Nursing

A foot care nurse provides specialized assessment and treatment focused on maintaining healthy feet, particularly for seniors and individuals with medical conditions such as diabetes or poor circulation. Services typically include nail trimming and thinning, treatment of thickened or fungal nails, reduction of corns and calluses, management of ingrown toenails, skin and wound assessment, and education on proper foot hygiene and footwear. Foot care nurses also monitor for signs of infection, ulcers, or circulation issues, helping to prevent complications and supporting overall mobility and independence.
