Toenail Cutting

Age Concern Epsom & Ewell

	Toenail Cutting Service


	Our new Toenail Cutting Service was officially launched in January 2007. Our trained Footcare Support Workers can cut toenails, file hard skin and give general advice on footcare in our clinic. Unfortunately, we cannot deal with corns. Home visits can be arranged for housebound clients.

	The service is available to anyone over 60, who lives in or around the Borough of Epsom & Ewell and who does not have any of the following health problems:



	Our trained Footcare Support Workers will cut your toenails


	Diabetes Poor immunity to infection Severe circulation problems Nerve damage in legs and feet Foot ulcers Severe foot deformity Connective tissue disorders eg. rheumatoid arthritis Conditions requiring certain medication such as Warfarin or high dose steroids


	People with one of these conditions should contact NHS Podiatry on 01372 735192
