Need someone to cut my dad's toe nails every 3 months. He's in a wheelchair/has dementia so getting him to a doctor is a challenge. He's in Elm Grove. Don't want someone that is not a doctor for fear of unintentional cutting/ infection. Any suggestions?

Donnawisdom : I sure don't know of any. Probably a liability issue.

If you can not get a Dr see if a good manicurist will come out if price is right. My dad was going to a podiatrist for that but he found it easier and cheaper going to a nail salon.

Medicare can help. We were able to get a podiatrist to go to my in-laws house and take care of my father-in-law's toes! They were also able to get a hospital bed, another medical supplies. They also had home visits from a doctor and regular visits from a home health nurse.
