Caroline Elder Launches TransaCare Foot Care Services in North Carolina

    RALEIGH, NC, July 15, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- TransaCare was formed with the vision to "... provide a much needed service to the community." Elder plans to offer mobile nursing foot care service in Wake and Johnston counties. "I will travel to homes or facilities. This is a mobile foot care service. We need to reach people where they are so they can get true help," she says.

Elder points out the benefits of a mobile nursing foot care service to include preventing infection with proper foot healthcare, regular foot examination by a healthcare professional to prevent bigger issues, increasing comfort and functionality, improving the health and safety of residents in a facility, and it is convenient.

HealthinAging.org further points out that, "Older people who are living in long-term care facilities tend to have even higher rates of foot problems. In the United States, up to 87% of people have painful feet at some time in their lives."

"Feet health must not be overlooked. It's how everyone gets around and our elders especially need help in this area," says Elder. She points out that foot healthcare is appropriate for anyone with these issues: diabetes, arthritis, Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's or Dementia, stroke, hip or knee replacements, circulatory problems, and more. "So many people need this treatment but it's been hard for them to travel to get proper care. That's why I am coming directly to the people who need it most."
