Foot care is very easily overlooked in the elderly as attention is usually paid to issues such as joints, illnesses, and mental health. However, having healthy feet, especially for seniors, is very important as feet lose cushioning with age and nails can get brittle. This can slow down the healing of sores and can make it difficult or even impossible to walk.

Foot care is a specialty that requires professional accreditation. Licensed Mavencare caregivers, expert chiropodists, and certified foot care nurses are able to provide foot care as a supplement to personal care.

Benefits of Foot Care

Feet are the foundation of our lives. Taking proper care of feetl can prevent a lot of health problems down the road. Here are some of the benefits of foot care.

Active Lifestyle:

Foot problems reduce mobility. The longer the feet are keeping your loved one up, the longer they can keep a healthy and active lifestyle going. Having mobility issues can prevent seniors from maintaining an active lifestyle.

Improved Blood Circulation:

Many seniors have poor circulation in their feet, which can slow the healing of foot sores. A foot massage can greatly improve the circulation. Improper foot care can aggravate lower lumbar pain if left untreated.

Early Identification of Health Problems:

By keeping a close eye on feet, you can spot early warning signs for health problems. Health problems such as poor circulation, diabetes, nerve damage, and arthritis can all have a noticeable effect on feet. For example, an excess of dead skin on the feet may be a sign of a low thyroid condition. Be sure check with your doctor if your feet have excess accumulation of dead skin in spite of regular exfoliation.
