Why Train in Newfoundland

Newfoundland has significant demand — and almost no Advanced Foot Care Nurse educators.

The opportunity across Newfoundland & the Burin Peninsula

Newfoundland's aging population, combined with long distances between communities and limited healthcare service availability outside St. John's, has created significant unmet demand for skilled foot care. The Burin Peninsula, central Newfoundland, and rural communities across the province consistently report difficulty finding qualified Advanced Foot Care Nurses — particularly ones willing to travel or work with Eastern Health facilities.

For nurses building a foot care practice anywhere in Newfoundland, the opportunity is real and largely unclaimed. Training with Ivy means learning from the only clinical partner in Newfoundland — someone who has actually built and sustained a rural mobile practice, works with Eastern Health, and can teach you the practical realities of the market.
