Looking for professional, clinically-based foot care? Did you know that certified nurses can provide this care in many settings, including your home?
AFCNA members are experienced nurses who can help with routine foot care. Thick toenails and rough calluses, pressure areas and misshapen toes can be managed comfortably by a foot care nurse. While regular visits to a primary doctor and a podiatrist are recommended, routine issues can be easily managed by a certified foot care specialist.

The American Foot Care Nurses Association (AFCNA) is committed to advancing excellence in foot care nursing through education, prevention, and early intervention. Our members care for high-risk and underserved populations and are often the first clinicians to identify foot and lower-extremity issues that can lead to serious complications. We are proud to work alongside organizations that share that commitment.
AFCNA and the American Limb Preservation Society (ALPS) share a clinical goal: reducing lower-limb amputation. Foot care nurses are often the first to spot the warning signs, and together we are working to give them the knowledge and tools to act early.
