Welcome to the OHSU Congenital Heart Center

Moving to OHSU (Oregon Health & Science University Hospital) can bring mixed emotions. You might be excited, but you might also be a bit scared. Changing doctors and nurses isn’t always easy. But we hope that you’ll have an open mind about coming to OHSU – it’s just part of the natural process. The great news is that this gives you a good chance to take charge of your health care.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could meet your new team at OHSU now? We thought so! That’s why we’ve included info about the OHSU clinic and health care team.

This website is designed specifically for young people with congenital heart disease. The goal is to provide information to help people who are getting ready to move (or have recently moved) to adult heart care. We use the term ‘transition’ to describe this process. Family, friends and health care providers may also find this website helpful.

We have a simple ‘Getting to Know You’ survey that we ask all visitors to complete (we don’t ask for any personal health information). Website browsing activity will be monitored so that we can learn about the people who visit the website, how often people visit the website, and the web pages that are visited most often. This will help us decide which changes and improvements to make to the website in the future. Results from this project will be described for groups of website visitors (i.e., not for individual users).
