Gandel Rehabilitation Center

A Landmark of Hope and Healing 

Adjacent to the historic Hadassah Hospital Mount Scopus, this magnificent eight-story, 26,000 square-metre facility symbolises hope, recovery, and an improved quality of life for thousands across Israel. Initially focusing on war-wounded patients, the Gandel Rehabilitation Center is set to expand its services to a wide range of individuals in need, including terror victims, injured soldiers, stroke victims, and those suffering from trauma, disease, or accidents.

Transformative Support

Thanks to the transformative gift by the Gandel Foundation and the Gandel family, along with the support of Hadassah donors worldwide and the Government of Israel, this project is now a reality. However, continuous support is vital to fully operationalise and extend the centre’s services to the broader community.

Jerusalem's Urgent Need

Jerusalem's large population and its status as the poorest city in Israel highlight the critical need for local rehabilitation services. The Gandel Rehabilitation Center addresses this gap, providing care to a wide demographic, including IDF soldiers, civilian casualties of terrorist attacks, the elderly and those recovering from various medical conditions.

Innovative and Comprehensive Care

Upon completion, The Gandel Rehabilitation Center will offer 140 beds across four inpatient units and an outpatient clinic serving 250 patients daily. Its state-of-the-art facilities include physical and occupational therapy, physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, respiratory and orthopaedic rehabilitation, a PTSD centre, and specialised care for neurological problems. Unique features like walking labs and a therapeutic swimming pool with a modular floor underscore its commitment to cutting-edge treatment.
