Becoming a provider

If you’re interested in providing Foot Care Services to injured workers, you must have a contract with us. In order to become a contracted provider, you must be, or employ, a foot care nurse who:

  • Is registered, licensed, and in good standing with the British Columbia College of Nurses & Midwives
  • Has completed a specialized course in advanced foot care within the last 10 years or can provide documentation of ongoing professional development in foot care within the last 10 years, such as certificates from continuing education courses, workshops, or other relevant training that demonstrates continued competency in the field.

Please note: Services cannot be provided by an esthetician, foot care spa, or salon.
