Israel at War — Help Sheba Respond to Operation Iron Swords

Sheba’s Response to Operation Iron Swords

Sheba is a cornerstone of the Israeli healthcare system where 100% of injured IDF soldiers go for rehab.

The Medical Center is currently working to double their rehabilitation capacity to 300 beds, and urgently needs more equipment. So far, Sheba has received 500+ patients, including soldiers and civilians who remain hospitalized.

In addition, Sheba staff are ON the border with Gaza in a mobile training center refreshing the training of IDF medical staff.

Sheba will be there to support the State, the IDF, and the physical and mental health of every Israeli who needs assistance, but Sheba needs funding to acquire all the equipment needed.

As Israel’s largest hospital, the responsibility Sheba bears is immense.

The IDF and the Ministry of Health look to Sheba for key aid, including:

• Supporting other hospitals (in particular Barzilai and Soroka)
• Identifying remains of the fallen
• Honoring requests from families to preserve sperm of their fallen sons
• Providing special medical help in communities in the Gaza envelop
• Supplementing the IDF medical equipment and supply from Sheba’s own stocks
• Creating a National Center for Mental Health Support.

The trauma counseling is particularly focused on the 2,200 survivors of the music festival but will be available nationally through Sheba Beyond.

As supporters of Sheba, we can take pride in the role of the Medical Center.
