Advocacy

Advocacy Goals of Vital Steps Care


To advocate for preventable lower limb health, mobility preservation, and amputation prevention for seniors in British Columbia.


Core Advocacy Pillars of:

  • Fall prevention through preventative nursing foot care
  • Diabetic limb preservation and early vascular intervention and referral
  • Mobility preservation and aging in place
  • reducing hospitalizations, amputations and healthcare costs 

Vision

To see Specialized Nursing Foot Care become an integrated and publicly supported component of preventative healthcare across B.C. I am hoping to work with government at all levels to advocate for policy changes and funding initiatives. The overarching goal is to achieve MSP coverage for people with diabetes, as well as all seniors.



 

 Preventative and conservative foot care can prevent thousands of dollars of unnecessary medical expenses and improve overall health and life expectancy. --Emily Davidson
