WHY REGULAR FOOT NURSE
CARE IS SO IMPORTANT

Its very lucky this client keeps his regular foot care treatment and screening appointments. We were able to get the wound debrided and cleaned up. A quick referral to an amazing chiropodist we use and a immediate call to his doctor got a care plan in action and initiated it immediately. Sometimes things on our feet seem small but they can get worse very quickly.
