Footcare

To help you take care of your feet we provide a foot care service in your home for eligible home and community clients

What we do

In an ideal world, our feet would always be in perfect working order, carrying us through life with ease and keeping us mobile, active, and independent. That's why we offer a comprehensive foot care service that comes directly to your home, designed specifically for our eligible home and community clients.

We know that getting out for appointments isn't always easy, so we bring expert, compassionate care right to your doorstep, ensuring you receive the attention and support you deserve in the comfort of your own surroundings.

To receive our home foot care service, there are a few simple guidelines we need to follow to ensure your safety and wellbeing.

If you are diabetic or taking blood thinning medications, we do ask that your doctor provide a referral before we begin treatment – this is an important precaution to make sure we're providing you with the safest, most appropriate care for your individual needs.

If you are under 65 years old, referrals can be made by service providers (GP, shire council, other health professionals, kinder teachers, teachers, maternal child health nurse, or paediatrician). You can also self-refer by contacting our intake team directly.
