Ummmm mobile dental services .... are you kidding 😍😍😍 why haven't you booked with her ?? ?!!! Mobile Smiles by Ashley Hayes

💰 “Use It or Lose It!” — End of Year Reminder 🪥

Did you know most dental insurance plans reset at the end of the year? 😬
That means any unused dental benefits disappear when the clock strikes midnight on December 31st!

If you’ve been putting off your cleaning or exam, now’s the perfect time to use those benefits before they roll over (or vanish 👻).

At Mobile Smiles, I make it easy — I come right to your home or workplace for convenient, high-quality dental hygiene care. 🦷✨

Or you can come visit me at my boutique style dental hygiene clinic 💕🛍️

📅 Limited appointments left before year-end!
Send a message today to reserve your spot and make the most of your benefits.

🇨🇦 Honouring Our Veterans

With Remembrance Day approaching, I want to take a moment to say thank you.

Living and working in a military town, I feel deeply honoured to care for so many veterans and service members. Your sacrifice, dedication, and service to our country do not go unnoticed.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything you’ve done and continue to do. It’s a privilege to serve you in my practice.

🌺 Lest we forget.

Basic Vs Advanced

🌿 Hello to all my current and future clients,

I wanted to take a moment to provide some clarification about the foot care services I offer, as well as a few updates to ensure consistency, fairness, and the continued high quality of care I strive to provide.

👣 Basic Foot Care
This includes general nail maintenance such as nail trimming, filing, and light care — typically a 30-minute appointment focused on keeping your feet healthy and comfortable.
Fee: $70.00 in clinic

👣 Advanced Foot Care
This service is for clients requiring more complex or time-intensive treatment due to conditions such as:
• Onychomycosis (thickened or fungal nails)
• Onychogryphosis (severely overgrown or ram’s horn nails)
• Onychocryptosis (ingrown toenails)
• Pincer nails or nails with extreme curvature
• Thick callus or fissures requiring timely debridement or scalpel use
• Other nail dystrophies that need specialized tools, precision, and extra care

These cases require additional skill, instrumentation, and time to ensure safe, effective, and comfortable treatment.
Fee: $90.00 in clinic

✨ Initial Appointments
Each new client visit includes a complete nursing foot care assessment and foot care treatment:
• Basic initial visit: $75.00
• Advanced initial visit: $95.00

Over time, I’ve noticed that appointment durations have varied anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. This variation occurred because I hadn’t yet formally distinguished between basic and advanced care — everything was charged at the same rate. To ensure fairness and proper time management, services will now be clearly categorized moving forward.

🏠 In-Home Visits
Previously, I maintained the same fee for in-home visits as for clinic appointments. However, going forward, there will be an additional fee for in-home services to reflect travel time and the extra resources involved.
Please contact me directly for clarification regarding in-home visit fees.

⚕️ Important Note: I do not work on infected nails. If you suspect an infection, please consult your family physician before booking.

📩 If you’re unsure whether your needs fall under basic or advanced foot care, please don’t hesitate to reach out — I’m always happy to provide guidance and answer any questions.

Thank you all for your understanding, kindness, and continued support. Providing safe, skilled, and compassionate nursing foot care to the Oromocto community remains my top priority. 💙

Keep in mind, Nursing Foot Care is a medical service provided by highly trained nurses who sterilize medical grade tools using IPAC approved autoclaves following Infection Prevention Control standards. Medical foot care is held to a high standard. This service can be claimed by health insurance or tax season for health expenses

Warmly,

I love to see new nursing businesses opening! It's absolutely amazing. It makes me so grateful that more people in our community are provided with increased access to this necessary service!

💬 “Instead of feeling discouraged when another nursing foot care service opens in your area, try shifting that energy into excitement — it means more people are gaining access to this incredible, much-needed care! There’s more than enough need to go around, and the most important thing is that our communities are getting the care they deserve.”

👣 Collaboration over competition — because healthy feet benefit everyone.

💬 “I’ve gone this long without nursing foot care — why do I need it now?”

Okay… but imagine if you hadn’t gone without it! 👣

Imagine if you had seen a Foot Care Nurse once a month since the beginning —
✅ Your nails trimmed safely and properly
✅ Your skin hydrated, supple and protected
✅ Your footwear and mobility checked
✅ Circulation and nerve health monitored regularly
✅ You're equiped with knowledge on proper foot health & lifestyle

How many issues could have been prevented before they even started?

Foot care isn’t just about comfort — it’s about prevention, early detection, and maintaining your independence.

👩‍⚕️ At Jessie’s Foot Care, we don’t just care for feet — we help you stay on them.

💬 “It’s so expensive — you just clip toenails!”

Actually… let’s clarify 👇

To become a Foot Care Nurse, we must first complete a Registered Nursing degree or Practical Nursing diploma — that’s 2+ years of education and roughly a $30,000 (LPN) or ($60,000+ RN) investment before we can even take the specialty foot care training.

From there, we complete an Advanced Foot Care Nursing course, which costs between $1,800–$4,000, plus continuing education to stay current with best practices and infection-control standards.

Then there’s the equipment — all must meet Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) Canada standards:
🩺 Autoclave: $4,000–$12,000 (for sterilization) not just any autoclave off Amazon
🧼 Medical-grade tools: $25–$50 per nipper for example
🧰 Sterilization supplies, protective gear, disinfectants, and single-use items — all required for safe, hygienic care.

When you add in your nursing education, specialty education, equipment, and ongoing professional upkeep, it easily costs close to $100,000 just to meet proper standards and deliver safe care.

So no — we don’t “just clip toenails.”
We’re highly trained medical professionals providing specialized, sterile, and preventative foot care — with the same precision and safety expectations you’d find in any healthcare setting.
