***************
3 days. One mission. Endless impact.

Hadassah Hospital heals with heart, caring for everyone, no matter race, religion, or nationality 🌎Hadassah is once again ranked one of the best & SMARTEST hospitals, not only in the Middle East, but in the world.

Hadassah’s 2025 National Conference was all about hope, healing, and action. We stood united, championed women’s health, and gained tools to turn passion into policy.

Keynote speaker Lizzy Savetsky lit up the room, reminding us: Advocacy means standing up, showing up, and lifting others. 💪✨

Inspirational speakers, engaging workshops, healing without borders and heartfelt connections. Advocacy and healthcare stood at the heart of the agenda!
