Israel:
Volunteers for Israel
One of JHI’s newest endeavors is the development of an exciting program for Healthcare Professionals; allowing them to volunteer to visit Israel and work with Israeli healthcare providers on a professional basis. We are working with several partners to make this project viable. Some of our partners in this program are the Israel Medical Association (IMA); the Jewish Agency of Israel (JAFI) and the Ministry of Health of Israel (MOH).
The program will encourage healthcare professionals from the Diaspora to volunteer their expertise by blocking out a period of time in which to visit Israel and experience the opportunity of working with their Israeli counterparts, in various regions of the country, in their shared specialty. The program will allow the participants to have a matchless opportunity for professional exchange. Diaspora healthcare professionals will have a truly unique Israeli experience and have the additional opportunity to experience a training course in Emergency call up preparation in the one part of the world with the most hands-on experience in emergency response. The time length of the commitment will depend on two factors, the desire of the volunteer and availability of their Israeli counterpart.
Individual programs will be devised for each volunteer, making their experience unlike any other. A number of options will be offered and the details of the various programs made possible by the partners mentioned above will soon be available.
