THE HADASSAH MEDICAL ORGANIZATION

From the very beginning, Hadassah’s pacesetting progress has set the standard for excellence in medicine in Israel. An impressive list of trailblazing achievements is testimony to Hadassah’s vision and mission. Today, the Hadassah Medical Center continues to march forward, making the world a better place through healing, teaching, and research.

Transcending politics, religion, and geographical boundaries to enhance world health, the Hadassah Medical Center was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.

Hadassah Medical Organization (also known as HMO) is comprised of the two Hadassah Hospitals (Ein Karem and Mount Scopus).

Since the establishment of Hadassah’s first hospital on Jerusalem’s Street of the Prophets in 1918, the Hadassah University Medical Center has expanded to include two University hospitals in Jerusalem – located on Mt. Scopus and in Ein Karem. Its two hospitals serve annually over 1,000,000 patients, having over 1,300 beds, 45 operating theaters, nine specially oriented intensive care units, and five schools of allied medical professions owned and operated in collaboration with the Hebrew University.

With its 45,000 operations/procedures annually, its Nobel Peace Price nomination, its 12 Israel Prize wins, the over 2,000 scientific publications in the past 5 years, the 40-50% of biomedical research done in Israel at Hadassah, over 200 patents, 150 clinical trials, and 15 start-ups, Hadassah can be considered one of a kind!

Hadassah’s extensive network of satellite services provides community health care programs, specialized outpatient clinics and services in several city neighborhoods and nearby towns, as well as consultation clinics in the center of Jerusalem and in Tel Aviv.
