Why Train in Oshawa

Durham Region is one of the GTA's fastest-growing senior populations.

The opportunity in Durham Region

Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, and the broader Durham Region are among the GTA's most rapidly growing communities, with an aging population that has outpaced foot care service availability. Long-term care facilities, retirement residences, and in-home clients across Durham consistently report difficulty finding qualified Advanced Foot Care Nurses — particularly for clients with complex needs such as dementia, mobility restrictions, or advanced diabetes.

For nurses building a foot care practice in Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, Bowmanville, or the surrounding Durham communities, the market opportunity is real and immediate. Training with Natalie means learning from someone whose 7+ years in Alzheimer's care and detail-focused philosophy prepare students for the exact client base most Durham Region foot care nurses will serve.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the Advanced Foot Care Nurse course in Oshawa?
The full program includes online theory completed at your own pace, plus hands-on clinical days with Natalie in Oshawa. Most students complete the program within 8–12 weeks, though scheduling is flexible.
Do I need previous foot care experience?
No. The course is designed for nurses (RPN, RN, LPN) who are new to foot care nursing. We start with foundational theory and build from there.
Will I learn how to work with dementia and LTC clients?
Yes. Natalie's 7+ years working with Alzheimer's patients means she brings deep, practical expertise in adapting foot care for clients with cognitive impairment — a critical skill for Durham Region nurses.
What's the demand for foot care nurses in Durham Region?
Strong and growing. Durham Region's aging population, combined with limited service availability, means qualified foot care nurses can build a full caseload quickly — especially those willing to do in-home and LTC visits.
