Who We Help
Many older adults face health challenges that go beyond the effects of aging. At Champion Health System, we specialize in caring for seniors with complex, chronic conditions—particularly those related to the heart, vascular system, diabetes, weight, and mobility.
We care for older adults who may be experiencing:
- Cardiovascular conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or arrhythmia
- Vascular issues like peripheral artery disease (PAD), poor circulation, or leg pain when walking
- Diabetes and related complications, including foot wounds or neuropathy
- Obesity or weight-related health concerns that impact energy, mobility, or overall wellness
- Joint pain, arthritis, or musculoskeletal conditions that limit movement and function
Whether you’re seeking care for yourself or a loved one, we offer expert guidance, medical support, and compassionate attention every step of the way.
Our Geriatric Services
At Champion Health System in Henderson, our approach is holistic, team-based, and deeply personal. Our geriatric services include:
Comprehensive Diagnostic Assessments
We begin every care plan with a thorough diagnostic evaluation tailored to the needs of older adults. Our in-house testing includes lab work, imaging, cardiovascular screenings, and metabolic panels to uncover the root causes of symptoms. These insights allow us to create highly personalized treatment plans that address the full scope of each patient’s health.
Chronic Disease Management
Our team provides expert, ongoing care for complex health issues such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, vascular conditions, and arthritis. We work closely with each patient to stabilize symptoms, prevent complications, simplify medications, and improve daily quality of life—all within the Champion Health System network.
Musculoskeletal Pain Management
Chronic joint pain, arthritis, and muscle stiffness can severely impact mobility and independence. Our team uses a combination of diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive embolization treatments to help manage and alleviate musculoskeletal conditions.
Cardiac Health Monitoring & Support
We offer in-house cardiac evaluations and ongoing heart health management for older adults with conditions like high blood pressure, heart failure, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease. Our interventional cardiology team works closely with patients to monitor heart function, manage medications, and reduce the risk of heart-related complications.
Wound Care for Non-Healing Ulcers
Our team specializes in the treatment of chronic, non-healing wounds, especially those related to diabetes and poor circulation. Using advanced wound care techniques and vascular assessments, we promote faster healing, prevent infection, and protect against serious outcomes like amputation—all delivered in a safe, outpatient setting.
