- Discovering new ways forward
The Rehabilitation Department at Hadassah Mount Scopus is the sole department for patients aged 16-100 in the greater Jerusalem area, covering diverse neurological and orthopaedic situations in four languages.
It is characterised by a multicultural patient populations and a multi-disciplinary approach of doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, nurses, psychologists and social workers. All cooperate to create a patient tailored programme centred on returning to an optimal active lifestyle.
In response to the increased need in rehabilitation services, Hadassah is building the new Gandel Rehabilitation Centre to service the needs of our current 1.2m population. The centre is in construction and ahead of schedule due for completion soon.
The Gandel rehabilitation centre will take a holistic approach that will extend to complete wellness, simultaneously promoting wellbeing, physical and emotional mental health in order to enhance the rehabilitation process and improve the outcomes.
What is the Hadassah UK Rehabilitation Technology Incubator and what will the outcomes be?
The Incubator is a concept space to develop ideas, new products and services within the framework of rehabilitation to do what Israel does best; – get research directly into treatments quickly. It will facilitate the development of highly individualised tools and equipment for patient’s needs and treatments, which are not yet on the market, but can be used by patients around the world. By giving our renowned staff the right tools and facilities to create innovative equipment, Hadassah can remain a world-leader in providing their patients with the best while creating solutions for the rest of the world.
Hadassah UK is sponsoring the Rehabilitation Centre’s new Technological Incubator facility to create innovative research and development of new ways to treat rehabilitation needs.
Who will benefit?
The Gandel rehabilitation Centre will treat a vast variety of people, conditions and injuries, including rehabilitation for stroke, cancer, neurodevelopment, sports injuries as well as rehabilitation for amputees, driving and walking restoration, communication and language services and more.
