Foot Care "Beyond a Pedicure"

---

Due to COVID-19 and resulting safety standards, the foot care program has taken great measures to revise protocols, equipment, supplies, and staff training. Foot care nurses are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. In order to keep nurses and clients safe, masks are required at every appointment regardless of their vaccination status. The foot care program is following the American Foot Care Nurses Association best practices, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, and the San Juan County Board of Health requirements in order to reduce exposure of potentially life-threatening conditions to valued clients and nurses alike.

Take a step in the right direction if you are troubled with any of the following issues:

·  Difficulty reaching or limited vision to see your feet clearly

·  Unable to manage nails or calluses

·  Misshapen, thick, splitting, or ridged toenails

·  Fungal conditions of the nails

·  Excessive moisture between toes resulting in cracks or open skin

·  In-growing or in-grown nails

·  Extra dry skin, cracks or fissures

·  Other nail or skin issues arising from bunions, hammer toes, crowding or improper footwear

·  Neuropathy, poor circulation or edema

·  Diabetic conditions
