When foot care requires extra attention.
Diabetes can affect circulation, nerves and the way the feet heal. That makes regular observation and careful foot maintenance especially important.
Careful visual assessment of feet and nails
Attention to skin integrity and pressure areas
Education on changes that should be monitored
Referral guidance when a concern is outside nursing foot-care scope
Prevention-focused care
Small changes can matter more when you live with diabetes.
A regular foot-care routine helps you stay aware of changes in your skin, nails and sensation. Nurse-led foot care is designed to be conservative and attentive, with the goal of helping clients maintain healthy feet and identify concerns that need further assessment.
Important: If you have a new open wound, spreading redness, significant swelling, sudden colour or temperature change, drainage, fever or severe pain, seek appropriate medical assessment rather than waiting for a routine foot-care appointment.
