We are pleased that you have chosen to visit the site of Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel. Schneider Children's is the only highly specialized medical care center of its kind in Israel and the Middle East. The hospital provides modern and the most complex medical services all under one roof, and represents a new era in Pediatric Medicine in Israel due to its high standards of medical excellence.

  On its flag, Schneider Children's Medical Center has engraved the mantra that "a child is not a small adult". We believe that the recovery process of the child is not only dependent on the treatment of his disease, but also by paying attention to his healthy side. This approach is in fact expressed in every aspect of our work at Schneider Children's. 
It extends from the building designed especially for children and the pervading warm and friendly atmosphere, through the encouragement of family participation in treatment, support of the family and social activities, to the multidisciplinary staff dedicated to the medical needs of the child, including his psychological and social needs. Due to the hospital's deep-seated obligation to improve and advance pediatric medicine in Israel, Schneider Children's has developed ties with the community, with children's clinics and with many other social agencies.

Similarly, Schneider Children's maintains close contact with pediatric institutions around the world through the exchange of experts and residents, the organization of joint conferences, and the conduction of collaborative research studies. These activities place the medical center on the front lines of medical knowledge and accord the application of the most advanced technologies and treatments in the world.

This site will introduce you to Schneider Children's history, services, departments, institutes and clinics. You will also be able to obtain information regarding medical referrals, making a contribution, writing to a sick child, becoming a volunteer, or reading material especially aimed at children. You can learn about our international patient services, our latest research endeavors, news and upcoming events, and last but not least, about what makes us so special and unique.

To each and every one of you, whether a medical professional, parent, child, supporter or just friend, Schneider Children's is a special environment designed to meet the unique needs of children. We invite you to enter any one of our specified sections and hope that you will find it both interesting and enjoyable.
