An advanced practice foot care nurse is a registered nurse who has completed specialized education to perform comprehensive foot assessments, manage complex foot and nail conditions, and treat high-risk patients such as those with diabetes or peripheral artery disease. Their responsibilities extend beyond basic nail care to include wound care, debridement of calluses and corns, and patient education on preventative care to avoid complications like amputations. They often work autonomously or collaboratively with other healthcare providers in various settings, including private clinics, hospitals, and long-term care facilities, providing essential specialized care to maintain patient mobility and quality of life.

Registered Nurse and Owner of Foot Care Canada

Hello, I’m Jody Stapleton, a Registered Nurse with 15 years of experience and an Advanced Foot Care Nurse serving clients across the Niagara region. I hold a Master’s Degree in International Public Health and founded Foot Care Canada to provide safe, high-quality, and compassionate foot care directly in the comfort of your home.

My nursing background includes experience in Infectious Diseases, Public Health, Community Care, Pediatrics and Geriatrics. With advanced training in foot care, infection control, and instrument reprocessing, I deliver evidence-based treatment focused on prevention, comfort, and maintaining healthy feet for life.

I believe foot care should be comfortable, respectful, and unrushed. I take time to listen, educate, and build trusting relationships so clients feel confident and cared for. Whether you need regular nail and skin care, help managing chronic foot concerns, or want to stay mobile and independent, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of nursing, I enjoy golf and travelling, which keep me energized and inspired.

Foot Care Canada is built on a simple mission: “Prevent. Protect. Keep Moving.” The goal is to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate foot care that helps you live your best life!
