YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Straightforward information to help you plan your care.

The nurse assesses the corn and discusses what care is appropriate before proceeding.

Can a corn be assessed during a home visit?

FootPrints offers assessment and suitable corn reduction during mobile visits in Winnipeg.

The nurse determines whether the concern is appropriate for the offered care or needs referral.

How is the plan for corn care decided?

Corn care is planned after assessment of the foot concern and the client’s relevant health history.

Not every area described as a corn should be assumed to need the same procedure.

Can FootPrints remove a corn permanently?

FootPrints does not promise permanent corn removal.

Ask the nurse about continuing care needs and contributing pressure relevant to the assessment.

Can someone with diabetes book corn care?

A client with diabetes can enquire about corn care, but suitable care must be decided after assessment.

Tell the nurse about diabetes and any skin concern before the appointment.

What if a suspected corn could be a wart?

A foot lesion described as a corn needs assessment rather than an assumption that it is a corn or wart.

Ask the nurse about the appropriate care or referral; FootPrints does not advertise wart treatment.

How should I prepare for corn reduction?

Before corn reduction, have your medication and allergy information and questions ready for the nurse.

Ask for any preparation instructions specific to your needs rather than assuming a routine from another treatment applies.

What should I do on the day of corn reduction?

On the day of corn reduction, follow the instructions given for the care you received.

Washing, products, dressings and activity advice depend on the assessment; a universal routine is not prescribed here.

What should I watch for in the week after corn reduction?

During the week after corn reduction, follow the agreed plan and raise new or continuing concerns with the appropriate healthcare professional.

The first-week label is a check-in point, not a seven-day recovery promise.

When should I arrange follow-up for corn reduction?

Follow-up for corn reduction should be agreed with the nurse based on assessment and continuing needs.

Do not wait for a two-week website checkpoint to seek advice about a new concern.

How much does corn reduction cost at FootPrints?

FootPrints lists an initial footcare visit at CAD100 and a follow-up at CAD70.

Discuss the service you need when booking and confirm any price variation related to location or care needs.
