The Standard Of Foot Health In Care Homes Is Changing
Helping Care Providers Understand What Good Looks Like
Foot health has a significant impact on mobility, falls, pain, diabetes management and quality of life. Yet standards, oversight and provision often vary considerably between care homes.
Care Home Podiatry was established to help providers improve consistency, reduce risk and raise standards through regulated clinical care, staff education and the Foot Health Assurance Framework™.
Reducing Risk. Defining Standards. Protecting Residents.
The Foot Health Governance Gap
Why standards, oversight and provision vary so widely between care homes
Most care homes have foot health provision in place. Far fewer have visibility of the quality, consistency and outcomes of that provision.
Foot health has a significant impact on resident health outcomes, yet standards, oversight and provision often vary considerably between care homes.
Without clear benchmarks for what good looks like, providers can face challenges in achieving consistency, visibility and assurance across their foot health provision.
