Why Train in Perth

Lanark County and the Ottawa Valley need more skilled foot care nurses.

The opportunity in Lanark County & the Ottawa Valley

Perth sits at the heart of Lanark County — one of Ontario's most popular retirement destinations, with a well-known concentration of seniors, cottage country residents, and long-term care demand. Communities from Smiths Falls to Carleton Place, Almonte to Westport, are consistently underserved for advanced foot care, particularly for in-home visits and long-term care facility contracts.

For nurses building a foot care practice anywhere in Lanark County or the western Ottawa Valley, the opportunity is real and sustained. Training with Jenny means learning from someone who successfully transitioned from hospital and home care into independent clinic ownership — exactly the path most new foot care nurses want to walk.
