YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Straightforward information to help you plan your care.
Can I book toenail trimming if I cannot reach my feet?
FootPrints offers mobile toenail care for clients who cannot comfortably reach or manage their own nails.
Discuss mobility and seating needs when arranging a Winnipeg home visit.
Can thick toenails be included in a trimming appointment?
Thick toenails require assessment to determine whether routine trimming, reduction or another form of care is appropriate.
Describe the difficulty when booking instead of assuming standard trimming is sufficient.
How is nail filing different from nail trimming?
In FootPrints nail care, trimming addresses nail length and filing smooths nail edges.
The published service description includes both steps where appropriate after assessment.
Does toenail trimming include cosmetic polish or a pedicure?
FootPrints provides nursing nail care focused on assessment, trimming, filing and advice.
Contact FootPrints before booking if you are looking for a cosmetic polish or spa-pedicure service.
What should I tell the nurse before toenail care?
Before toenail care, tell the nurse about relevant health conditions, medications, allergies and previous foot concerns.
Information about diabetes, sensation changes or previous wounds helps inform the assessment.
How should I prepare for toenail trimming?
Before toenail trimming, 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 toenail trimming?
On the day of toenail trimming, 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 toenail trimming?
During the week after toenail trimming, 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 toenail trimming?
Follow-up for toenail trimming 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 toenail trimming 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.
