This Wednesday in Syracuse, NY, over 50 poor and homeless patients left with happy feet from the annual foot care clinic by Amaus Health Services at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. This is the third year that this team of about 30 medical and nursing students offered free foot exams and cleaning to needy people in the area. In addition to foot care, patients were also given socks, shoes, clothing, toiletries, and other items that were collected by students from surrounding universities. “There are so many health issues that can result from exposure and the feet being injured and damaged," said Barbara Carranti, a LeMoyne nursing professor who organizes the foot care clinic. "There are infections people would never know about unless they get a good foot inspection."
Your feet mirror your general health - everyone needs to take care of their feet, regardless of income level.
