Israel’s largest rehabilitation hospital will be built in Sde Rov, North Tel Aviv, thanks to a NIS 200 million donation anchored by the Judisman Family Charitable Foundation, according to an announcement on Monday.<\/p>\n
The Judisman Rehabilitation Hospital is set to open in 2032 and is one of the most ambitious social infrastructure projects in Tel Aviv’s history, with a total funding of NIS 1.1 billion. The facility, in partnership with the Tel Aviv Foundation and the Reuth Association, will include approximately 540 beds to serve 10,000 patients annually.<\/p>\n
According to the Health Ministry<\/a>‘s 2023 equity report, Israel averages 1.7 rehabilitation beds per 1,000 residents, with demand only intensifying since Oct. 7. This project aims to improve this situation and Israeli healthcare in general.\u00a0<\/p>\n “The establishment of the new Jusidman Rehabilitation Hospital is another significant step toward strengthening Israel’s rehabilitation healthcare system,” said Ron Huldai<\/a>, mayor of Tel Aviv-Yafo and chairman of the Tel Aviv Foundation. “Tel Aviv-Yafo, a leading city in public health, is mobilizing to address rehabilitation needs, which have become increasingly urgent for wounded soldiers, trauma victims, and others seeking a real opportunity to return to an independent and fulfilling life.”<\/p>\n Once construction is complete, the Reuth Rehabilitation Hospital in Yad Eliyahu will relocate to this new campus, which will feature expanded innovative facilities, including stroke and traumatic brain injury recovery, a hydrotherapy pool, a research hub, and green spaces for patients and their families.<\/p>\n
