Nurses at the Gandel Rehabilitation Center at Hadassah Hospital Mount Scopus play an important role in helping wounded soldiers to recover, providing round-the-clock care and emotional support. Sarit Mezevitz Sonnenschein, pictured here, is deputy head nurse at the Rehabilitation Center. Sarit has treated dozens of wounded soldiers since the beginning of the war with Hamas.

"I see the role of the nurse as an address for everything, whether it's helping with the patient's basic physical needs, like getting out of bed for the first time or even showering and eating, or supporting the mental and emotional aspect –– identifying what they are coping with and directing the right treatment or assistance,” Sarit said.

After October 7, construction of the new Gandel Rehabilitation Center was greatly accelerated to account for a dramatic shortage of rehabilitation beds. Doors opened to the first phase of the center in January, accommodating an initial 72 patients.

Today, Hadassah led 60 organizations including the Hadassah Foundation, JWI, National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) and the ADL in a letter to the UN demanding an independent investigation into the documented evidence of Hamas’ r**e, mutilation, and gender-based violence against Israeli women and girls.

The organizations raised concerns about the biased, antisemitic track record of the Commission of Inquiry which claims to be charged with this investigation. https://www.hadassah.org/press-release/hadassah-the-hadassah-foundation-jwi-ncjw-and-55-organizations-call-on-un-to-conduct-unbiased-investigation-into-hamas-violence-against-israeli-women
