The 180-hour program is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to function as a foot care nurse within their health care community. This comprehensive advanced and diabetic foot care program follows current Best Practice Guidelines and evidence-based practice. A new Advisory Committee was formed this year making several recommendations for revisions for the 2008-09 Foot Care Nurse Program. See listed below for the new format.
