Description

NHS Erewash Clinical Commissioning Group (ECCG) on behalf of the 4 Derbyshire CCG's is looking for potential providers whom have the relevant capability and capacity of delivering Core Podiatry services within each of the Derbyshire district areas. Core Podiatry is defined as 'the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of common foot pathologies associated with the toenails, soft tissues and the musculoskeletal system with the purpose of sustaining or improving foot health' (Farndon, 2006). The service will focus on the needs of those individuals with low and medium levels of foot care needs, with potential providers referring on to specialised podiatry and extended scope podiatry as required and further signposting to non-podiatric services where clinically appropriate, e.g. smoking cessation or weight management services
