The Jusidman Foundation of the Jusidman family has announced a NIS 200 million donation towards the construction of the new rehabilitation hospital at Sde Dov in north Tel Aviv owned by the Reuth Association non-profit organization. The new hospital will replace the existing Reuth Hospital in Yad Eliyahu in the south of the city. Following the donation, the new hospital will be named the Jusidman Rehabilitation Hospital.
The donation will enable the ambitious project, costing an estimated total of $390 million (NIS 1.4 billion), to go ahead. The Reuth Assoiation will swap the land in Yad Eliyahu for the land at Sde Dov through the Tel Aviv Municipality, and the municipality will support the project financially as well. The Ministry of Health is due to allocate hundreds of millions of shekels, and the remainder of the budget is expected to come from further donations, and from commercial activity on the hospital campus.
