Description

Poor eyesight, loss of function, risk of bacterial or fungal infections from using contaminated nail clippers.

These are just a few reasons why receiving safe fingernail care from a MobiCare Advanced Foot Care nurse is a great “add on” to any other service you already have booked.

What To Expect

Every visit will include a clinical observation of skin condition, circulation, signs of infection, and foot structure

The process starts by cleaning the hand with a moisturized disposable wipe. The nails are disinfected with an alcohol pad. All nails are visually inspected then cleaned under the nail bed and at the edges to loosen and remove debris. Using sterilized tools, the nails are carefully trimmed. Nails edges are filed smooth. The nails and surrounding skin are disinfected again with an alcohol pad. Finally, a lotion is massaged into the hand so the skin is left hydrated and clean.

After The Treatment

Clean underneath the nail bed as needed. Avoid sharing nail clippers or other personal care items. Do not trim fingernails deep to the nail bed and leave 1 to 2 mm of fingernail exposed. Rub a moisturizing lotion into your hands daily to prevent dry, cracking fingertips.
