A professional working meeting was held between Professor Eliad Davidson, Director of the Pain Relief Unit, and Rabbi Aharon Aberman, Chairman of the Lev Malka Organization • Goal: To formulate a comprehensive support package for patients dealing with serious illnesses

A very important professional meeting recently took place within the walls of Hadassah Medical Center, when Professor Eliad Davidson, Director of the Pain Management Unit, hosted Rabbi Aharon Aberman, Chairman of the Lev Malka organization, in his office.

The meeting was intended to establish avenues of action that would connect medical innovation in pain treatment with the organization's experience in supporting patients. The main goal is to create a treatment continuum that ensures an accurate response in the hospital and after the patient is discharged home, with an emphasis on alleviating the suffering that accompanies coping with the disease.

During the discussion, the parties raised the need to make medical services accessible, especially for oncology patients who are experiencing difficult challenges.

The combination of the comprehensive clinical knowledge of the medical system and the logistical array of charitable organizations was marked as a necessary step that will significantly change the quality of life of patients.

The topic of pain relief took center stage in the conversation, with the understanding that proper pain management is a critical component in the patient's ability to maintain resilience throughout the challenging treatment period.

According to Professor Eliad Davidson, the connection between the medical teams at the hospital and the activists in the field makes it possible to provide comprehensive medicine that sees the person beyond their medical record.

Rabbi Aharon Aberman said that the organization sees a privilege in collaborating with experts and that the professional knowledge that is transferred to the organization's support teams upgrades the quality of assistance provided to each patient in wards and private homes across the country.
