Israel’s Health Minister Uriel Menachem Buso visited Bnai Zion, a leading medical center in Haifa to express his support for the work of its dedicated staff while it is under attack from Hezbollah.

Bnai Zion has continued its standard of care to patients over the past year, despite regular threats from the terror organization. Initiatives such as fortified wards will ensure that the facility will continue to provide top quality health care even during a full out war.

Speaking about the visit, Bnai Zion CEO Dr. Ohad Hochman said: "It was an honor to host Minister of Health Uriel Menachem Buso and receive his support during this challenging period. Thanks to our dedicated staff, Bnai Zion remains fully equipped to uphold our exceptional standard of care, even in these difficult times, with first-class treatments in our fortified wards. However, as we face increasing demand, the continued support from the Ministry of Health, Minister Buso, and our incredible Friends of Bnai Zion is more critical than ever to ensure we can meet the growing needs of our patients."

Bnai Zion is the north’s only Soldier Rehabilitation Department and has a new War-Fortified Underground Hospitalization Complex to enable it to continue offering first-class care during conflicts.
