The Heart Team

Teamwork Makes the DifferenceHeart Team

Congenital heart care requires excellent equipment and exceptional people working together as a tightly choreographed team. It is this state-of-the-art, seamless, caring teamwork among literally hundreds of individuals that sets the Heart Center staff apart.

A weekly team conference of 30 to 40 members is held to review and plan every upcoming case. Surgeons, cardiologists, nurses, therapists, social workers and others all participate; for every patient, every team member is "on the same page." On a daily basis, an individualized care team "rounds" or visits each patient. This team might number 10 or 12, and includes all staff involved in the daily care of your child. In this way, every medical caregiver is intensely focused on the individual needs of every single child in our care.

Arkansas Children’s Hospital has recruited some of the world’s preeminent pediatric cardiovascular physicians. Their quality is evidenced not only in the successful outcomes they have achieved, but in the research and publications of their work they have completed—work that continues to move the field forward.
