Yes! I am trained not only to work on diabetic feet, but also to educate diabetics about diabetes and the importance of foot care. It is SO much more important when living with diabetes.

Diabetes can reduce circulation and cause damage to the nerves in the feet, also known as neuropathy. With reduced feeling and circulation to the feet, diabetic feet are more susceptible to cuts, sores, and infection. If cuts, sores, or infection are not caught and treated early enough, it can lead to amputation. Having an extra set of eyes on diabetic feet is crucial to maintain their optimal health.

Maintain hydration, wear good fitting shoes, use lotion daily- if possible, wash feet daily with warm water and mild soap - don’t forget between the toes, and make sure to dry well!

I provide mobile medical foot care in West Central Alberta - anywhere between Red Deer and Rocky Mountain House and From Sylvan Lake up to Rimbey.

Please call, text, e-mail, or click the “contact us” link on the webpage. If a resident within the Valley View Manor in Rimbey, or Eckville Manor House is needing foot care, please contact the manors directly to get their name on the next foot care clinic sign up sheet. In-room visits are available for Valley View Manor residents, for these, please call, text, or e-mail me directly.

Most appointments take anywhere from 30-45 mins. The first appointment is closer to 45 mins as I create a personalized chart where I gather personal and medical information. If someone is needing more time, due to feet sensitivity or impaired cognitive function such as dementia, please let me know and we can accommodate for that.

Every 4-12 weeks. It really depends on your foot care needs, ie: how fast or slow your nails grow, whether or not you’re dealing with corns or calluses and how often they are needing care.

No. Foot care nurses do not soak feet. Because: Soaking removes the natural oils from the skin It increases circulation making it difficult to asses and identify concerns such as poor circulation and/or discoloration It increases the risk of infection. While it is great for softening hard nails, it also softens the skin, increasing the risk of nicks and cuts during your visit

No. I am providing medical foot care, not a pedicure. You may paint your nails between visits, but please make sure to have it removed before your next appointment.

A simple call, text, or e-mail!

Yes! So long as I have the space available to do so. Booking regular follow-up appointments in advance is a great way to ensure a back-to-back appointment.

Just a comfy spot for you to sit! I bring the rest!

Yes! I love animals! I have 3 dogs and 2 cats myself. I don’t mind them saying hi and checking things out, but if they’re needing too much attention during your appointment, I may ask that they be put in another room for the remainder of the visit.
