As we age, it becomes even more important to look after our feet. Healthy feet play a vital role in keeping seniors independent, comfortable, and mobile throughout their golden years. My name is Gellis, and as a dedicated foot care nurse serving Brampton and the GTA, I bring compassionate, professional, and specialized foot care directly to your home.


Why Senior Foot Care Matters

Aging brings changes to our feet—thicker nails, drier skin, reduced flexibility, and sometimes chronic health conditions like diabetes or arthritis. These changes can lead to discomfort, pain, and a higher risk of infections or injuries. Seniors often have difficulty caring for their own feet due to reduced vision, flexibility, or dexterity.

Neglecting foot health can lead to serious complications. Issues like ingrown toenails, corns, calluses, fungal infections, and even ulcers are all more likely—and more dangerous—without proper care, especially for those managing diabetes or circulatory problems.


What Professional Foot Care Nursing Offers

As a mobile foot care nurse, my mission is to deliver expert foot care with a gentle touch in the comfort and safety of your home. My services include:

  • First-time assessments and regular ongoing care

  • Advanced foot care for diabetes and circulatory issues

  • Nail trimming and reduction of thick or ingrown nails

  • Callus and corn removal

  • Education for patients and caregivers

  • Referrals to other medical professionals if needed

Each visit starts with a careful assessment to identify your foot health needs and discuss the best plan for your ongoing wellness.


The Benefits of Mobile Foot Care

Checking into clinics isn’t always convenient—or even possible—for many seniors. That’s why I bring my nursing services straight to you. Mobile foot care means less stress, more privacy, and all the comfort of familiar surroundings. You don’t have to worry about travel, stairs, or waiting rooms—just high-quality, personalized care on your schedule.


Tips for Maintaining Healthy Senior Feet

  • Check feet daily for blisters, sores, or changes in color and temperature

  • Keep feet clean and dry; moisture can lead to infections

  • Moisturize skin but avoid the area between the toes

  • Wear well-fitting shoes and soft, seamless socks

  • If diabetic, never go barefoot—even at home

  • See a foot care nurse regularly for maintenance and advice
