Description of patient organisation
            Der Herzkind e.V. ist eine gemeinnützige Selbsthilfeorganisation und widmet sich der Verbesserung der Betreuung und Beratung herzkranker Kinder, Jugendlicher und junger Erwachsener sowie ihrer Familien. Der Verein wurde 1984 gegründet und umfasst heute 32 regionale Kontaktgruppen, in denen sich Eltern und Angehörige herzkranker Kinder zusammengeschlossen haben. Für ratsuchende Eltern stehen bundesweit 75 Herzkind-Familien als Ansprechpartner/innen zur Verfügung. 
Eltern helfen Eltern: zuhören, verstehen, begleiten, trösten, aber auch praktische Hilfen im Umgang mit der Krankheit und im Umgang mit Kliniken und Ärzten, Krankenkassen, Ämtern und Behörden, Kindergarten und Schule – das bietet der Herzkind e.V. Durch die Zusammenarbeit mit weiteren Vereinen und Organisationen soll eine flächendeckende Unterstützung für die Patientengruppe "Kinder und Jugendliche mit angeborenen Herzfehlern" geschaffen werden.
