Did you know that nurses are the #1 most trusted profession?
Feet are what people need to get about. Even in a less than optimal health state, foot health contributes to overall health. At FootCare by Nurses we believe that everyone deserves great foot care.
Our nurses use evidence, nursing knowledge and a person-centered approach to enhance foot function, mobility, balance and support overall health. You do not need a medical referral for our services, just an appointment.
FootCare by Nurses offers flexible contract staffing solutions to any professional organizations from podiatry offices to wound care clinics or any practice that values feet. We welcome inquiries from anyone – individuals, Councils on Aging, Aging Service Access Points, Home Health Agencies, and Assisted Living Residences and anyone who need nurses to provide great, evidence-based compassionate foot care to their clients.

We train nurses to be foot care nurses. We provide hands-on precepting opportunities in a variety of settings for both the American Association of Foot Care Nurses (AAFCN), CFCS certification and the Wound Ostomy Continence Nurses Society (WOCN), CFCN certification.
It is our feet, not our faces, that walk us through life. At FootCare by Nurses, we believe that knowledge is power. Feet that are well cared for do not have bunions, corns, wounds or calluses and should not be painful or swollen. Your foot health should also not be a reason to have a wound or fall. We are happy to come and talk to your organization, nurses, caregivers, soccer teams, school groups, nursing students, medical students, senior groups, running groups or any organization that is curious, and values foot health.
