  • What Led Policy-Makers to Remove Nursing Care from Field Units of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) and Return It Later? Ronen Segev
    Segev Israel Journal of Health Policy Research (2020) 9:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13584-019-0360-2 INTEGRATIVE ARTICLE Open Access From civilian service to military service: what led policy-makers to remove nursing care from field units of the Israeli defense force (IDF) and return it later? Ronen Segev Abstract Background: From the very onset, Israeli military nurses served in supporting positions on the front lines, shoulder to shoulder with men. When the IDF was established in 1948, nurses were sent to serve near areas of conflict and were not included in compulsory military service in field units. Once the military hospitals were closed in 1949, nursing in the Medical Corps lost a clear military purpose, and its main contribution was in the civilian arena. From 1949 until 2000, most recruited military nurses operated their mandatory service mainly in a civilian framework according to the integration agreement between the ministry of defense to the ministry of health. Between 2000 to 2018, military nurses served at home front military clinics and in headquarters jobs at the Medicine Corps. In2018, the Medical Corps decided to integrate military nurses into the Israeli military service in order to cope with the shortage of military physicians, among other things, and ensure appropriate availability of medical and health services for military units.. This study examines, for the first time, the considerations that led to the closure of military hospitals and the transfer of the military service of nurses in the IDF to the Ministry of Health in 1949 and the decision in 2018 to return the military nurses to the field’s military battalions.

    Hadassah Great Plains E-Bulletin August 2016 No. 2 A Word from the Region President It’s Official! The 2016 Hadassah National Convention – The Power of Our Dreams – is a huge success. What a wonderful experience those of us who were able to attend enjoyed. We cried, we laughed, we hugged. Tears of joy as well as tears of sadness and yet hope for a future of peace and health abounds and fills our hearts and stirs our souls as we know with Hashem we can do anything we set our minds to. And who better sets our minds with dreams and goals than Hadassah. As Henrietta Szold admonished: when you dream, dream big. From the Opening Plenary on Monday evening we began learning together and didn’t stop until the closing Plenary at Thursday noon. We assembled together and we attended separate breakout sessions on the various topics we chose – from Curriculum Watch- Fact, Fiction, Innuendo or Bias to Jewish Perspectives on End-of-Life Care: Medical Ethics, Do No Harm to To Be Young, Jewish, Female…and a Leader! So many sessions, so little time! We watched excellent videos, heard from speakers as varied as actress and entrepreneur Gwyneth Paltrow, recipient of Hadassah’s Power of our Dreams Award, Letty Cottin Pogrebin, founder of Ms. Magazine and writer and Abigail Pogrebin, author and daughter; Caroline Glick, senior contributing and chief columnist for The Jerusalem Post and Natan Barak, CEO of mPrest Systems, leader of the Iron Dome command and control system development – bringing military applications to the commercial sector.
