Foot Care Nursing Business

Thank you for your reply,

Sorry to be so late with my response. I'm in Mississippi.

I really really wanted to attend Dr. Overstreet's class but it isn't feasible for me at the moment. However, I have purchased some of her materials, which are truly helpful. She breaks down everything, including tips on how much to charge depending on the setting.

Glad to see that someone is breathing some life into foot care again on the forum. I completed my foot care training from emory a few yrs ago and received the CFCN certification in 2016 but have never put it to work. I became discouraged after reaching out to the Tennessee state boards and them informing me of all of these processes I would need to complete to get the business going. However, I am starting to regain some interest in this again. I have been working as an NP and can feel myself having the urge once again to own my own business. I think I may reach out to the board once again and see what I need to do to get going...dreading this though. I think I honestly will need to go through training once again as well due to it being so long since I actually worked on someone's feet. Message me if anyone wants to connect for ideas, support etc. Love to associate with like minded and like-interests people. Happy day nurses!!

Hi..I am a RN and have done several years of foot care working in a diabetic clinic.  I am also a wound care nurse, but retired a few years ago.  I had no idea so many nurses had started their own businesses:).  This is wonderful to have this resource and I am sure I'll be looking into getting certified, but I live in the hinterlands of eastern Montana, so it may be awhile.  I was wondering if I can legally do foot care, independently, without a foot care certification?  Thanks so much!
