Foot care for people with diabetes

Our medical pedicurists provide foot care tailored to people with diabetes. During every treatment, we check the condition of your skin and nails and look out for any changes that require extra attention.

Depending on your situation, treatment may include, amongst other things:

• the treatment of calluses, corns and cracked skin;
• the treatment of ingrown, thickened or abnormal nails;
• the reduction of pressure sores;
• checking your feet for changes and areas of risk;
• advice on daily foot care and suitable footwear.

Foot care for people with diabetes is intended for those with diabetes who need extra attention for their feet. This may be because you are experiencing symptoms, but also to prevent foot wounds as far as possible.

Has your podiatrist drawn up a treatment plan for you? If so, the medical pedicurist will carry out the treatments included in that plan.

A medical pedicurist can help you if you:

• has diabetes;
• is at increased risk of foot ulcers;
• you experience a loss of sensation in your feet;
• suffers from calluses, cracked skin or pressure sores;
• has ingrown or thickened nails;
• if you want to have your feet checked regularly.

During your first appointment, we will assess the condition of your feet and discuss your situation.

In any case, you can count on:

• personalised care for your feet and your situation;
• regular checks of the skin, nails and areas at risk;
• treatment in accordance with the applicable guidelines;
• practical advice on daily foot care;
• consult your podiatrist when necessary.

Good foot care for people with diabetes often requires collaboration between different healthcare professionals. That is why our medical pedicurists work closely with podiatrists and other relevant practitioners at Rondom.

By ensuring that your care is properly co-ordinated, you will receive the support that suits your situation.

Has your podiatrist determined that you are eligible for medical foot care covered by your basic health insurance? If so, the treatments included in your treatment plan will be fully reimbursed. You will not receive an invoice for these.

Would you also like a full foot treatment, such as having your nails cut or a full foot care treatment? In that case, these treatments are not usually covered by basic health insurance.
