Organisation welcomes podiatry development
Thursday 1st July 2010
An organisation has spoken out in support of new measures involving people with podiatry jobs in the south-east of England.
The Swindon Local Investment Network welcomed the introduction of foot care services aimed at people in the area, the Swindon Advertiser reports.
Swindon Council is one of the organisations involved in the project, along with NHS Swindon from the Clapham Hobbs Unit on Cricklade Road.
The patients being targeted under the initiative are those who are less able to care for their own feet.
Such people are able to attend 30-minute sessions costing £8.50.
They can be booked on a six-weekly basis by phoning up and leaflets detailing the service have been distributed to GP surgeries.
Recently, the Wirral News revealed that podiatrists are among the medical professionals working at a new health unit located in Birkenhead.
The centre is designed to provide patients with longer opening hours and more flexibility.
