I have a potential private domicillary patient who has bought her own set of reusable podiatry instruments to keep costs down when she used to go to an FHP. The patient would like to carry on this arrangement. Normally I would use disposable instruments. The patient looks after her own set of instruments and are only ever used on her. Since treatment is just a medical nail cut and callous debridement I don't see a problem with this arrangement. As a new podiatrist I would appreciate thoughts from more experienced practioners about any problems or potential legal risks to this arrangement. Has anyone else had patients buy their own equipment and expect you to use them?
