Foot Care by Nurses is a specialty nursing practice for those who love to make a difference. We are on a mission to prevent falls, wounds and amputations from happening. Ours is a holistic practice with a primary focus on taking care of the feet of older adults to prevent pain, wounds, and falls from happening. Our work is incredibly rewarding for both the nurse and the patient.

Our aim is to help elders stay in their homes by enhancing and supporting quality of life. Our core values are kindness, caring, compassion, and integrity.

We are a rapidly growing company that covers all of Western Massachusetts, Northern Connecticut and Cape Cod. Due to an ongoing expansion in needs, we are currently looking for exceptional nurses to join our visiting nursing team in the Springfield, Longmeadow, Enfield and Northern CT area!
