The Nursing School

 

 

The Pat Matthews Academic School of Nursing at Hillel Yaffe Medical Center was founded in 1967, and the first nursing course opened in November of that year. Since then, the school has trained hundreds of registered nurses who work at the different health centers throughout Israel, among them many new immigrants. About 570 students are currently enrolled.

 

The faculty members are all experienced professionals, who are highly qualified in the fields of nursing, medicine, health professions, life sciences and social studies, and who personally mentor the students throughout their studies.

 

In 2000, the school was affiliated with the School of Health Professions at Tel Aviv University. Students who complete the program successfully receive a BA in nursing from Tel Aviv University and are eligible to become certified registered nurses once they pass a government certification exam. In 2009, the school was awarded ISO 9001/2008 certification by the Standards Institution of Israel for the professional training of registered nursing students and promoting the nursing profession.
