Keep Me Walking Podiatry provides professional podiatry care for older people accessing the Support at Home Program in Adelaide. Our Ahpra-registered podiatrists help older Australians look after their feet, stay mobile and continue doing more of the things they enjoy. Care is available through our clinics across Adelaide, with home visit podiatry also available for people who find it difficult to travel.
If podiatry is included in your assessed Support at Home needs, our team can work with you, your family and your Support at Home provider to arrange the right foot care. Whether you need regular foot care, help with painful feet, diabetes-related foot assessments or advice about footwear and orthotics, KMW Podiatry is here to make accessing care simpler.
Stay Mobile & Independent with Support at Home
The Australian Government’s Support at Home Program helps eligible older Australians receive aged care services that support them to remain safe and independent at home.
Podiatry is included within the Support at Home service list as an allied health service. This means podiatry may form part of your approved care when it relates to your assessed needs and support plan.
At KMW Podiatry, our focus is your feet and lower limbs.
Foot pain, nail problems, diabetes-related foot concerns, reduced balance and difficulty walking can make everyday activities harder. Our podiatrists assess your needs and provide practical treatment tailored to your foot health, mobility, and comfort.
Depending on your clinical needs and approved support, your podiatry care may include:
- General foot care: Assessment and treatment for common foot concerns.
- Nail care: Help with thick, difficult or uncomfortable toenails.
- Corns and calluses: Treatment to reduce uncomfortable areas of pressure.
- Diabetes foot assessments: Checks to identify changes that may affect your foot health.
- Foot and heel pain: Assessment of pain affecting your feet and lower limbs.
- Balance and mobility support: Podiatry care and advice to help you move more safely and comfortably.
- Orthotic assessment: Assessment for orthotics when clinically appropriate.
- Footwear advice: Help choosing footwear that suits your foot health and mobility needs.
- Home visit podiatry: Professional foot care at home for eligible patients who cannot easily attend a clinic.
Your treatment is based on your individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Yes. Podiatry is listed as an allied health service within the clinical supports category of the Support at Home service list. This does not mean every participant automatically receives podiatry. The service needs to relate to your assessed needs and be included in your support arrangements.
