At Leading Edge Podiatry, we understand the importance of maintaining foot health, especially for individuals receiving home care services. We are happy to participate in Home Care Package (HCP) for podiatry services to ensure optimal foot care and comfort for those in need.
What is a Home Care Podiatry?
Home Care Podiatry is a government-subsidised program designed to support older Australians who prefer to stay at home but need assistance with daily activities. These packages provide funding for a range of services, including podiatry, to help individuals maintain their independence and quality of life.
Our Home Care Podiatry
We offer a comprehensive range of podiatry services under our Home Care Podiatry, including:
- Foot Assessments: Our experienced podiatrists conduct thorough assessments to evaluate foot health, identify any issues, and develop personalised care plans.
- Nail Care: Proper nail care is essential for preventing discomfort and complications. We provide professional nail trimming, filing, and treatment of ingrown toenails to keep your feet healthy.
- Skin Care: We address skin conditions such as calluses, corns, and cracked heels to alleviate pain and reduce the risk of infection.
