On Yom Ha’atzmaut, we reflect on what truly defines Israel- not only its achievements, but the spirit of its people.

At Herzog Medical Center, we see that spirit every day: in the determination of our patients, the compassion of our staff, and the sense of responsibility people carry for one another. Even when things get rough- there is a sense of togetherness, of genuine care, and of hope.

This is the heartbeat of Israeli society- a heart that yearns for health, wellbeing, unity, and lasting peace and security for all.

Happy Independence Day 🇮🇱

On Yom Hazikaron- National Memorial Day for Israel’s fallen and victims of terror, Herzog Medical Center stands in remembrance of those who gave their lives- the sons and daughters who did not return, leaving behind broken hearts filled with longing.

We stand in solidarity with the bereaved families, send our prayers to those wounded in body and in spirit, and reaffirm our commitment to continue our healing and rehabilitative work with dedication, care, and a deep sense of purpose- for humanity, for life, and for the eternal light of their souls.

May their memories be a blessing.

Today, the children living in Herzog’s Chronic Respiratory Department- many of whom rely on ongoing ventilation support- received a meaningful gift delivered from a very special community in Baltimore: handwoven blankets, crafted with love and care.

For these children, some of whom have lived in the department for years with limited connection to the outside world- a soft, handmade blanket offers more than physical warmth. It brings comfort, dignity, and personal, human touch- especially in moments when family members cannot always be by their side.

These beautiful blankets were lovingly knitted by devoted members of the Gemilut Hasadim group at Chizuk Amuno Congregation in Baltimore.

Thank you for this thoughtful and personal gift. May these blankets wrap each child and their families in warmth, care, and a sense of connection.

With gratitude to Ilana Foss for helping bring this heartfelt initiative to Herzog’s children.
