In-Home Foot Care for Seniors on the South Shore
When getting around becomes more difficult, foot care can become more challenging too. Julie Blasco, a licensed practical nurse, provides in-home and residence visits to care for seniors and people with reduced mobility on the South Shore.
Why choose Julie Blasco?
Making foot care easier to access
Mobility, transportation or certain functional limitations can make it difficult to arrange an appointment at a clinic.
In-home service allows people to receive care in their own surroundings, without having to arrange an extra trip.
Julie brings the necessary equipment and tailors each appointment to the person’s needs, sensitivity and level of independence.
How often should an older adult schedule in-home foot care?
How often an older adult needs foot care depends on their needs and their ability to care for their feet between visits. The same schedule won’t suit someone who can care for their own feet and someone who relies entirely on a loved one. These factors are essential to setting up follow-up care that suits their level of independence, rather than following a standard schedule.
Care tailored to seniors’ needs
Difficult-to-trim nails
Nails can become thicker or more difficult to care for over time. Proper trimming and care can help maintain a more comfortable routine.
Calluses and corns
Some pressure points can become uncomfortable and may need more targeted care.
Corns and seed corns
Treatment may include care of specific areas when this falls within the scope of the service.
Dry, cracked heels
Particular attention may be given to cracks and dry skin to improve comfort and make daily care easier.
Care tailored to each person on the South Shore
Before treatment, Julie takes the time to discuss the person’s situation, mobility, any discomfort and specific needs.
A family member or caregiver may also be present if it helps with the appointment.
If a wound, significant pain, signs of infection or an issue outside the scope of foot care is observed, Julie may recommend consulting an appropriate healthcare professional.
