Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, Israel, has developed an outstanding reputation for implementing and maintaining lasting international collaborations and partnerships that benefit many individual countries as well as global healthcare development.
In today’s interconnected world of healthcare, a personal visit to the Hadassah Hospitals can be crucial for medical institutions and others seeking to create and strengthen medical collaborations. The Hadassah Hospitals were pleased to recently welcome delegations from Ukraine, Brazil, Uruguay, and Australia.
Ukraine’s Pursuit of Rehabilitation Expertise
A delegation from Ukraine visited Hadassah Hospital with a crucial mission: rebuilding their nation after conflict. With the ongoing war increasing the demand for advanced rehabilitation centers, Ukraine turned to Hadassah’s experts. Their day spent with our doctors enriched their knowledge, enhancing their own rehabilitation centers. This partnership, rooted in empathy, dates back to the early days of the conflict when Hadassah sent a medical delegation to Ukraine. Today, as Ukraine turns to Hadassah once more, we continue to strengthen this war-torn country’s capabilities and foster lasting collaborations for the betterment of its healthcare system.
Brazil’s Quest for Innovation and Knowledge Sharing
A delegation from the Brazil-Israel Chamber of Commerce and Industry, including Instituto Caldeira and C-Suite Execs, explored the intersection of medicine and innovation during their visit. They delved into Neuro-Oncology, biology laboratories, the emergency department, and the Hadassah’s BioHouse. This visit fostered knowledge sharing and deepened collaboration between the two countries. It serves as a compelling example of how in-person visits strengthen healthcare partnerships and global innovation.
Uruguay’s Journey of Shared Values
Facilitated by the Latin American Jewish Congress (CJL), Uruguay’s delegation, led by Yamandu Orsi, the current mayor of Canelones, and Roby Schindler, President of the Jewish Community in Uruguay, emphasized shared values of innovation, healthcare excellence, and commitment. Their tour included Hadassah’s Heart Center, Cardiac CATH Labs, and the Emergency and Trauma unit. This visit solidified the growing connections between Uruguay and Hadassah, illustrating the power of shared values in building international relationships.
Australia’s Commitment to Healthcare Innovation
Deborah Travers, a non-Executive Director and member of the AUSiMED Development Committee, spent a full day at Hadassah. Her visit, including meetings with doctors and tours of hospital departments, focused on innovative research in the application of AI for identifying cancer-causing mutations. In parallel, Prof. Sandro Porceddu, a Senior Executive and Director of the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, explored partnerships with P-Cure, a pioneering Proton Therapy company. These visits collectively underline Australia’s dedication to strengthening ties and advancing healthcare innovation at Hadassah.
These personal visits foster cultural exchange, deeper understanding, and trust. Witnessing Hadassah’s dedication firsthand creates a sense of camaraderie that paves the way for fruitful and enduring partnerships.
Hadassah Hospital’s commitment to international collaboration has transformed it into a global center of healthcare excellence. International delegations visiting Hadassah Hospital represent the essence of healthcare diplomacy, where the pursuit of excellence brings nations together.
