Our Members: Hadassah Nurses to Watch

This is your chance to get to know some of our outstanding, diverse and accomplished nurses who are part of our Hadassah family. Each member brings a unique and powerful voice and perspective to our organizational tapestry.

Join us in honoring the Henrietta Szold Hadassah-Hebrew University School of Nursing, and the role nurses have played in the Hadassah Medical Organization in Israel, in the United States, and beyond. Our history is rich in its founding by and devotion to nurses. We want to thank our nurses for choosing a career in caring and taking on challenging and demanding work.
