Abstract

Almost all children with heart disease are successfully cared for at home by their parents. Pediatric cardiovascular nurses play a major role in preparing parents to meet their child's medical needs, in aiding families to cope with a chronic condition, and in encouraging normal growth and development for their young patients. Through assessment, collaboration with other members of the health care team, planning with the family, teaching, counseling and supportive interventions, and evaluating care, nurses assist in a smooth transition to home and appropriate use of community resources.
