Hillel Yaffe Medical Center
The Hillel Yaffe Medical Center (Hebrew: מרכז רפואי הלל יפה) is a major hospital on the western edge of Hadera, Israel. It serves a population of about 380,000 residents in an area ranging from Zikhron Ya'akov in the north to Netanya in the south, from the Mediterranean coast in the west to Umm el-Fahm and the Green Line in the east. The center is named after Hillel Yaffe, a pioneering Israeli doctor who worked in nearby Jewish settlements in the land of Palestine during the First Aliyah in the early 20th century.
As of 2006 the operations of the hospital are centralized in two main buildings:
There is also a new multipurpose building, which was designed by the office of the architect Uzi Gordon.
A diverse group of doctors and nurses works at the Hillel Yaffe Medical Center: Arabs and Jews, natives and immigrants. The patients also reflect the diversity of the region's population: urban people alongside rural farmers, natives and immigrants, Jews and Arabs. The hospital thus serves as an example of peaceful coexistence between Arabs and Jews, and of absorbing immigrants from the Soviet Union, Ethiopia and other lands.
