    Advocacy Within the Hour

    A nurse advocate can translate medical terminology to make everything clear to you and your child during what can be an emotional, painful, and frightening situation. Your child’s Heartology nurse will be by their side within an hour of an emergency department visit.

    Safe, Expedited Care

    Since you and your student provide Heartology with a medical history, your nurse advocate can quickly and efficiently communicate critical information to ER staff. Your child’s nurse advocate knows how to convey urgency and ensure timely treatment.

    Clear Communication in a Crisis

    If your child is over 18 and does not specifically request their medical team communicate with you, the doctor may not contact you. Heartology has a process in place to ask the right questions and ensure you are informed of and involved in your child’s care.

I want to thank Kim for her take-charge attitude and great assistance during my hospital stay. She really made me feel relaxed and helped me keep a positive attitude, as no one could figure out the exact cause of what happened to me. We finally got me on a track to solve the problem. I really appreciate all that Kim did for me. You can tell she loves her work. Many thanks.
