foot care in Ottawa

All services are provided by Registered Nurses (RNs) and Registered Practical Nurses (RPNs) who have completed additional specialized training in medical foot care beyond their nursing degree. All nurses at Natural Skin & Sole Wellness are in good standing with the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) and have completed Vulnerable Sector Police Record Checks to ensure the highest standards of safety and professionalism.

Medical foot care supports the health of the feet and lower limbs and may benefit individuals with:

• Diabetes or circulation concerns
• Thick, fungal-appearing, or difficult-to-trim nails
• Corns and calluses
• Dry, cracked, or sensitive skin
• Ingrown toenails (non-surgical care)
• Reduced mobility or difficulty reaching the feet

Yes. Medical foot care is especially important for individuals with diabetes. Our nurses focus on prevention, early identification of concerns, and maintaining skin and nail integrity.

Yes. All medical foot care services are performed using sterile instruments and follow infection-control standards and professional nursing guidelines. Instruments are either single-use disposable or professionally reprocessed and sterilized in our clinic using our autoclaves.

The frequency of visits depends on your individual needs. Many clients benefit from care every 6–8 weeks, while others may require a different schedule based on their foot health and risk factors.

A referral is not usually required for medical foot care services. Some facilities or private insurance care plans may require a prescription from your primary healthcare provider.

To ensure safe and effective care, we ask that a clean, safe, and accessible environment be prepared prior to the nurse’s arrival. This includes:

• A well-lit area with space for the nurse to work

• A stable chair or bed for the client

• Pets secured in another room during the visit

• No smoking during the appointment

• Clear, safe access to the home (including stairs and walkways)

These measures help protect both the client and the nurse and allow care to be provided efficiently.

Yes. Accessible parking must be available for the nurse at or near the service location.
Any applicable parking fees are the responsibility of the client or facility and are not absorbed by the nurse.

Nursing foot care services may be eligible for reimbursement through extended health insurance plans, depending on your individual policy and coverage for nursing services. Following your appointment, we will provide you with a detailed receipt that can be submitted to your insurance provider for reimbursement. Because coverage varies between insurance companies and individual plans, we recommend contacting your insurance provider before your appointment to confirm whether nursing foot care provided by a nurse is covered under your plan and whether a referral or prescription is required.

Please note: Natural Skin & Sole Wellness Clinic cannot guarantee insurance reimbursement. Patients are responsible for confirming their individual coverage and eligibility directly with their insurance provider.
