Billyelliott Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I have had a quick search for a thread , but nothing so far exactly answers my question so sorry if I've missed it ! Do the vocational schools give lessons (to boys in particular) on how to maintain there feet ?! My DS is hopeless and let's his nails get in a state and won't cut them ! Does anyone know if they keep an eye on this sort of thing !? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stirrups36 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) Elmhurst did help out with a chiropodist (at a cost) when Our son got a verruca. But otherwise... I don't think so. He is getting better, especially as we point out that these are his 'tools' and he needs them to be in as good condition as possible, Edited July 9, 2013 by Stirrups36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambleton Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Same problem in our house with boys! I took mine for a one- off appointment with local (male) chiropodist who showed them exactly how to cut their nails. After that they could take ownership of their own feet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billyelliott Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Perhaps i should make a suggestion that this be covered in the induction schedules !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon2 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 It always used to be covered by one of the nurses - foot care and hygiene in the first day or two of term. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 That was always one of the things we checked at leave outs - length of nails. They soon learn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
