It is tough being hospitalized, and tougher still if you are a child. Hospitalization, whatever the cause, means strange surroundings, smells and sounds, unfamiliar faces, a break in daily routine, and separation from family and friends, all of which require new resources for coping. Visits, especially by strangers from afar, make an indelible impression upon hospitalized youngsters and contribute immeasurably to their confidence and sense of well-being. Every visit to Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel - known affectionately by Israelis simply as Schneider Children's - is meaningful and important, and as a result, every visitor is welcomed warmly and with open arms.

There are many ways to shower our hospitalized children with love and caring, and making a personal visit is surely one of the most endearing. The rewards are inspiring and inherently multiplied.

Schneider Children's wholeheartedly encourages you to visit, and will assist you with suggestions and ideas, as well as coordinate arrangements. Whether an individual or a family, a concerned group or an organization, we will ensure that both you and our young patients will gain the maximum benefit from your thoughtful endeavor.
