Foot Care
Mobility is the key to a fulfilled life. As we age our feet require as much attention as other ailments and illnesses. As feet lose both cushioning with age and the nail beds become brittle, it may become more difficult to walk, run or exercise. Sores that form on the feet take longer to heal which compromises mobility and prevents seniors from engaging in community activities. Our registered footcare nurses at Nightingale are specifically trained nurses in treating foot ailments including:- Diabetic Foot Care
- Clipping And Filing Nails
- Treating Callouses And Corns
- Ingrown Toenails
- Cracked And Dried Heals
Take a seat and enjoy our easily accessible footcare chair complete with a massage. Call our office and book your clinical appointment today and we will get you back on your feet!
