Vaad Refuah provides a range of medical advocacy and support services aimed at improving patient outcomes and safety within the community. A core part of their work is hospital advocacy, where trained volunteers assist patients and their families during hospital stays to help them navigate care, communicate with medical staff, and ensure proper treatment and attention.
The organization also focuses on education and prevention. It runs first aid and CPR training programs for both children and adults, often in school or community settings. These trainings are designed to equip individuals with essential life-saving skills and promote health awareness from a young age. In addition, Vaad Refuah promotes preventive healthcare by encouraging early detection and healthy lifestyle practices through community education.
Another key service is their connection to top-tier medical resources. Vaad Refuah helps individuals access appropriate medical professionals and facilities, guiding families to specialists or hospitals that best suit their specific health needs. Their work ensures that patients receive care that aligns with their condition, while also supporting families during difficult medical situations.
