In nursing school, we learned about "nursing judgement".
In the field, if a nurse is told by her boss,
"follow the policies and procedures and no one can sue you and you should not care if people yell at you"
it feels like a real contradiction.

The Israeli Ministry of Education sent attorney Mordechai Bass to investigate the Beit Yaakov girl's school, Immanuel, Israel, in January 2008.      See report here in English translation, then photocopied, then typed in Hebrew for easier reading.    דו"ח עו"ד מרדכי בס על בית הספר לבנות עמנואל בית יעקב    היה גזענות?  ?Was there racism :He conclude s   אין לי אפוא אלא להביע צערי על שטעונות כאלא - שבכל מקום שבו אנו מוצאים כי יש להן, הצדקה, לאזור את כל כוחותינו ולהלחם באפליה העדתית מלחמת חורמה - מעולות ונזרקות לחלל .האוויר, ומרבות שנאה בישראל, במקום בו אין להן בסיס     When ethnic discrimination actually occurs, we must combat it with all our might.

 English follows the Hebrew, see below: מאת רופא אפידימיולוגי: "אני מסכים שעבודת בריאות הציבור חייבת להיעשות תוך שיתוף חברי ומנהיגי הקהילה כפי שהדגמת בעבודתך הברוכה. חשוב שסיפורך ישמע, בעיקר בשירותי בריאות הציבור במשרד הבריאות.. "חג שמח He wrote this to me before the High Holidays, Sept 2025, in response to the following: Dear Dr ____ I forward this to you as an clinician in the field of public health, I wish to share my observations on the decreasing availability of vaccines in my two decades of working as a school nurse, in the Shomron , there is a great need for wider vaccine availability, I enclose my resume and letters of recommendation for context.   We cannot wonder at outbreaks of diseases to which there are vaccines, given the state of public health services in Israel in recent decades. איננו יכולים להתעלם מהשינויים בשירותי בריאות הציבור בישראל בעודנו תוהים על התפרצות חצבת. מבקשת התעניינותכם בסיפור שלי כאחות בריאות הציבור, תודה הנה נקודות חשובות מהמכתב המצו...

Rehabilitation - caring for every single soul

 We are a varied group, at this rehabilitation day care center in Israel.
