Adaptable home visits

Care adapted around the person

  • Carers, relatives and support workers welcome
  • Communication, mobility and sensory needs considered

Common questions

Before you enquire

Can a carer or relative attend?

Yes. A relative, carer or support worker is welcome when this helps the patient feel comfortable or supports communication and practical arrangements.

Can a visit be adapted for anxiety or additional needs?

Yes. Tell us about relevant communication, sensory, mobility or anxiety-related needs when enquiring so the appointment can be planned at an appropriate pace.

What if my concern needs podiatry or medical care?

Foot+ will explain when a concern appears outside routine foot-health scope and advise seeking an appropriate podiatry, GP, urgent or emergency service.
