Last week, our Marie Avigad, Director of the Santé Israël project that helps to make Israel’s health care system accessible to French speakers, was in Rishon Lezion.
Marie Avigad at Maccabi Health Services in Rishon Lezion
She participated in an event that was organized by Maccabi Health Services and the coordinator for Olim services in Rishon Lezion. The goal was to provide information about the Israeli health care system in general, and about Maccabi Health Services in particular.

Marie presented the Santé Israël web site, as well as described the Bikur Olim project that she is leading together with the Qualita organization. She also answered questions from the audience and showed the 25 participants how to find information on the Santé Israël web site.
About the Shfela region
The audience was very interested in the subject of health care and asked a lot of questions. One question was from a young pregnant woman, about the recent changes to health care coverage for pregnant women. She received answers, which Marie also published a new page on the Santé Israël web site and linked to a post on the Santé Israël Facebook page. That post received 4,500 views!
Many thanks to the Pharmadom Foundation for their continued support of Santé Israël.
Here’s the Facebook post from Maccabi Health Services in French:
