Things change a lot. At 80, you have the full complement of druids healing spells. At your current level you have 4 right, rejuv, regrowth, HT and tranquility.
Also at 80, while healing heroics, healers usually have to contend with an undergeared tank and geared dps. By"undergeared", I mean his gear is valid for content but his threat generation is too low for the geared DPS. The geared DPS are more concerned with speed and numbers, therefore, they are constantly pulling agro, since they refuse to let the tank build any agro. So the healer is healing the tank and the dps at the same time. Most geared healers can handle it but it does require constant casting, since DPSer's get crit.

Actually, I think the overgeared DPS suits new 80 druids just fine. They may get aggro, but multi-target heals are our thing, and the high DPS ends the fights quicker.
It's just a big jump from level 200 heroics to the level 232 heroics. Keep an eye on your "specific dungeon" list to see when you get unlocked to do Forge of Souls on heroic. The first time in there is when it becomes a real challenge, and you may want to run it as DPS to make sure you're geared up more appropriately.
