What Care Should Be Taken For Feet Being In An Area Of Moisture?

My daughter is a teacher in a JrHighSchool swim class. This requires being on her feet in an area of moisture. What is a good, reasonably priced shoe for this situation. She wears a swim suit and is lifeguard/WSI/CPR certified in readiness for emergency possibility of having to get in the pool. Shoes, ideally, would have support and be waterproof.....preferably quick-drying.

hello,
thanx a lot for your query on HCM,
as your daughter has to stay in moisture a lot of times,
it is advisable to wear a good quality socks all the time.
the socks should be of cotton and should be thick.
if possible, the shoes and socks can be removed for a certain time and again be put.
there should be good ventilation in that area.
the socks should be of appropriate size and not tight.
the shoe should also be of good quality.
it should not be loose.
the socks should be regularly washed.
talcum powder can be put in the shoe in order to absorb excess sweat..
things should improve
