We’ve spoken before about Santé Israël, which seeks to assist Francophone residents navigate the Israeli health system.

Frequently, Santé Israël Project Manager Marie Avigad receives individual questions and requests. She tries to help out as quickly and efficiently as possible.

 

Just as an example, a few weeks ago, someone, part of a group of Christian pilgrims, used to “contact form” of the website about their need to borrow a wheelchair for their aunt. Marie quickly answered that Santé Israël was unable to provide equipment, but she referred them to the Yad Sarah organization, which does lend wheelchairs and other medical equipment, to residents as well as tourists. She also referred them to the page on the Santé Israël website about Yad Sarah to receive some background information, as well as contact information for them. Eventually she made sure that they used the info in an effective way.

Many thanks to the Pharmadom Foundation for their continued support of Santé Israël over the years.
