Subject: Service Price Increase Notice – Foot care and Hand care

Menno Place has been notified about a price change for the professional foot care and hand care provided to our residents. We wish to share with you that starting January 1, 2022 the price will increase by $10 for each service. We’re confident that even with the increase, prices remain competitive for the quality of the service that is provided.

Starting in January 2022, the charge for services will be $45.00 for foot care and $40 for hand care. The contractor providing this service has worked hard to keep costs down and is proud that this is the first increase since January 2019 (three years ago).

  • Foot care, as you know, is an important clinical service for older adults, especially those diagnosed with diabetes. We are pleased that we have professional nurse contractors to provide this service for our residents. We’d like to take this opportunity to remind you that these services include:
  • Foot care assessment – corns & callus care, cutting toenails, checking for skin infection & conditions, preventing potential problems, and moisturize feet.
  • Hand care assessment – cutting of fingernails, checking for skin infection & conditions, preventing potential problems, and moisturize hands.

If you have any questions or wish to discuss these changes regarding foot care or hand care for your loved one, please ask your Nursing staff.

Sincerely,
Kathrin McMath, MA, CHE, CPA, CMA
Chief Operating Officer
