👣 What to Expect at Your First Foot Care Appointment

Starting something new can feel a little uncertain, especially when it comes to your health. If you're thinking about booking your first foot care appointment with Sole Survivor Foot Care, this post will walk you through what to expect, so you feel prepared, comfortable, and confident.

I provide mobile foot care, which means I come to you, whether that’s your home, assisted living facility, or another safe and private location within the Fredericton North, Pepper Creek, or Chipman area.

👋 The First Visit: Step-by-Step

✅ 1. Introduction & Health Review

We’ll start with a friendly hello and a quick review of an intake form. I’ll ask about your health history, foot concerns, and anything else that may affect your care.

👣 2. Foot Assessment

Next, I’ll do a full assessment of your feet, which includes:

• Skin and nail condition

• Circulation and sensation checks

• Mobility and gait observations (if needed)

• Areas of pain, pressure, or concern

This assessment helps me create a plan tailored to your specific needs.

🧼 3. Foot Care Treatment

Based on your assessment, I’ll provide gentle, professional foot care which may include:

• Nail trimming and filing

• Reduction of thick or fungal nails

• Corn and callus reduction

• Education and recommendations

All tools are sterilized according to Medical Device Reprocessing (MDR) standards for your safety by me.

💬 4. Aftercare & Education

Before I go, we’ll talk about what I observed, any concerns I noticed, and how you can take care of your feet between visits. I’ll also let you know when to book your next appointment, depending on your needs.

🪑 What You’ll Need for the Visit

• A clean, well-lit space with a chair (I’ll bring a footstool and all equipment)

• Yourself
