Functional services at DHZC

Welcome to the website of the functional services at the Deutsches Herzzentrum der Charité! Here we present the work at our specialist clinic, our functional service areas and our interdisciplinary teams.

According to the 2024 global ranking of the US magazine Newsweek, our clinics are among the best specialist cardiac clinics in the world. As in the previous year, 2023, the Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery is ranked 6th among 150 excellent hospitals worldwide, making it the best cardiac surgery clinic in Europe. Our cardiology department is also ranked 6th, the only clinic in Europe among the top ten.

We are very pleased about this award, which was only possible as a team effort by all the specialist and professional groups involved.

• A workplace without ifs and buts
  As a rule, every specialist at our company receives a permanent employment contract – including 30 days of vacation and fair pay.
• Family and career are compatible at Charité
  We offer parents shift models that fit their lives and we cooperate with daycare centres.
• Working in multi-professional teams
  With us, you will find the working environment in which you feel comfortable and in which we tackle the diverse tasks together in an interdisciplinary manner.
• Scope for creativity
  You are bound by medical facts and methodologies, but at the same time you always have the opportunity to actively contribute to the team and plan your days independently. We value your work and expertise!

All anaesthesia, cardiac catheterisation and operating theatre services at the DHZC are part of the organisational unit Cardiac Intervention Suite and Operation Room Management, or CISORM for short.

Our aim and the results:

• good working conditions and development opportunities for all colleagues in our teams
• Central development, coordination and promotion of further education and training measures
• Uniform working standards and quality controls guarantee the highest quality of care for our patients
