It’s easy to take your feet for granted, but healthy feet are essential in maintaining your independence and quality of life as you age.
Routine foot care is critical for seniors. Even minor issues like wounds and ingrown toenails can lead to serious complications, including infections, if left untreated.
Alabama Foot Care at Home provides quality, in-home foot care for seniors and the homebound. Jason Patterson, who founded the company in 2023, is an Adult Gerontology Nurse Practitioner and Certified Foot Care Specialist.
Alabama Foot Care at Home is staffed by licensed nurses with extensive training in routine foot care. Patterson has four nurses seeing patients at home in Birmingham, Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills, Hoover and Helena.
Alabama Foot Care at Home offers skin and nail assessments; nail trimming; treatment of fungal nails, corns and calluses; neurological and diabetic foot examinations; and massage for the feet and lower legs to stimulate blood flow and prevent swelling.
“It’s preventive care to save limbs,” Patterson says.
The work he does with patients is “incredibly gratifying,” Patterson says. “We provide the best quality routine foot care.”
Alabama Foot Care at Home doesn’t accept insurance and Medicare, and all visits are private pay. By avoiding insurance red tape, Patterson can give his patients “more immediate access to care,” he says.
