Herzog’s Story
Herzog Medical Center was founded as a geriatric – psychiatric hospital in Jerusalem and has expanded its service reach over the years, in response to the need for additional care in specialized fields:

Herzog Medical Center is renowned for their program to train young Ethiopian women as nurses’ aides, to alleviate the shortage of trained personnel in the field of geriatric care-giving, and encourage Ethiopian immigrants in the medical field.

Since 2006, Herzog has operated a Children’s Respiratory Care Unit to provide long-term respiratory care for children ranging in age from 3 months to 17.

The hospital’s Resilience Unit has developed psycho-trauma programs utilizing the vast experience that Israeli psychologists have accumulated in treating terror-related post-traumatic stress.
