Andrea Fritz, LPN #14066

Certified in Advanced and Diabetic Nursing Foot Care

My name is Andrea Fritz, and I am an Advanced Footcare Nurse and Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). My pronouns are She/Her. I absolutely love being a nurse. Before becoming an LPN, I worked as a CCA for five years while waiting to get into the nursing program, and I truly believe that experience made me a stronger and more compassionate nurse. I also hold a Bachelor of Science with a major in Biology and a minor in Psychology.

I graduated from Acadia University in 2008 and spent a few years working at local wineries, but I always knew I wanted to work in the medical field. That passion eventually led me back to NSCC—first for my CCA, and later for my LPN. During my nursing training, I learned about nursing foot care and immediately knew it was something I wanted to pursue. I went on to complete my Advanced Diabetic Footcare course through Caring Education in Halifax.

I worked on the Surgical Unit at VRH for six years while offering foot care part-time. Working in Surgical made me appreciate the importance of proper foot care even more—I saw people lose toes, feet, and legs in situations that may have been preventable with regular, skilled care. I’ve been providing foot care for six years now, and a year ago I made the decision to go out on my own full-time. One of the things I cherish most about foot care is having the time to truly talk with and connect with my clients.

Being a mom and being a nurse are two of the greatest joys in my life. I’m a proud mom to my 11-year-old son, Ethan. I grew up in Nictaux, NS, and I’ve lived on the North Mountain just outside Berwick for the past 13 years—a place I absolutely love.

I truly believe that foot care can change a person’s comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Every visit is an opportunity to prevent complications, ease pain, and support someone’s independence. Being able to provide this level of care—while taking the time to truly connect with people—means so much to me. I’m grateful every day to offer foot care through Remember When HealthCare and to support clients in feeling their best, one step at a time.
