Rabbi Daniel Rabin reflects on his visit to the Gandel Rehabilitation Center

I am writing to reflect on an extraordinary visit we had about a month ago to the Hadassah Hospital and its new Gandel Rehabilitation Center at Mount Scopus, an experience that continues to resonate with us. As we approached the end of our time in the Holy Land, this visit offered a profound insight into the remarkable capabilities and compassionate ethos of Hadassah's healthcare services.

Hadassah's Gandel Rehabilitation Center is a testament to modern medical excellence. Witnessing its state-of-the-art facilities firsthand was truly inspiring. The building's design not only focuses on aesthetic and functional excellence but also profoundly considers patient care and comfort. This harmonious blend of technology and humanity in healthcare was evident in every corner of the facility.

A particularly significant and sobering aspect of our visit was the tour of the hospital's fully equipped underground Intensive Care Unit (ICU). This facility, designed to provide uninterrupted care in the event of major emergencies or national tragedies, is a striking example of foresight and preparedness. The very existence of such a facility speaks volumes about Hadassah's commitment to safeguarding human life under any circumstances.

Engaging with the soldiers undergoing rehabilitation at the Gandel Rehabilitation Center was a moving experience. Their resilience and unyielding spirit in the face of adversity are genuinely inspiring. These encounters showcased the crucial role of supportive and comprehensive healthcare in the journey towards healing and recovery.

Reflecting on our visit, it is clear that Hadassah Hospital is not just a medical institution but a beacon of hope and resilience. As we carry these impressions with us, we extend our deepest gratitude to Hadassah Hospital for embodying the highest standards of healthcare and for their unwavering dedication to saving and improving lives.

Thank you for the opportunity to experience and learn from such an exceptional institution. We depart with a heightened appreciation for Hadassah's invaluable contributions to healthcare and humanity.
