For seniorsVein Care for Seniors and Families
Older adults often live with swollen legs or skin changes for years. A vein doctor can check whether veins are the cause, and FCCI accepts Medicare.
Why age matters
Leg problems often build slowly. FCCI notes that untreated venous insufficiency can cause pain, swelling, skin changes and ulcers. In older adults, a sore near the ankle that is slow to heal deserves a look.
FCCI also runs wound care and amputation prevention programs. It lists venous ulcers among the wounds its specialists diagnose, so a vein problem and a wound can be cared for in one practice.
For family caregivers
- Notice swelling, color changes or sores and note when they started
- Offer to drive and sit in on the visit
- Bring a medicine list and insurance cards
- Ask about TeleVisits for follow-ups; FCCI sends a text link, no app needed
Please never share a loved one's health details through a web form. Call 904.493.3333 instead.
