    Kiryat Shmona Ambulatory Care Center

    Kiryat Shmona Ambulatory Care Center

    In peace and in war, Kiryat Shmona is Israel’s front line. Located 40 minutes from the nearest hospital, the citizens of Kiryat Shmona must rely on locally provided health care. Many in the community live at or below the poverty line; it can take two hours by public transportation to receive advanced care. Clalit has now transformed an outmoded clinic into an advanced ambulatory care facility – a day hospital without beds.  The newly renovated facility includes an outpatient cancer center, an ambulatory care facility with two surgical suites, and services including orthopedics, plastic surgery, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, obstetrics and gynecology. The state-of-the-art upgrades at Kiryat Shmona ensure the well-being of Israel’s northernmost residents and the armed forces that defend this border.
