As Israel confronts direct threats from Iran and sustained escalation from Hezbollah along the northern border, Tzafon Medical Center (TMC) has transitioned to full emergency operations.The hospital now operates entirely within fortified and underground protected facilities, ensuring uninterrupted delivery of advanced, life-saving care under active threat conditions. Serving over 300,000 residents in the region and providing tertiary-level specialty care to 1.5 million people across Northern Israel, TMC is the medical anchor of the region.Today, it is also part of Israel’s civilian defense infrastructure. Strategic Investment Priorities Partnership support will strengthen the emergency and clinical resilience of TMC, focusing on: Operational continuity in protected facilities – maintaining full hospital functionality while departments operate from protected and underground spaces during conflict. Emergency surge readiness – expanding the hospital’s ability to rapidly scale care during mass casualty events. Healthcare team resilience – supporting staff wellbeing under prolonged emergency conditions through psychological support, staff recognition, and educational solutions for employees’ children when schools are closed. Protected regional dialysis capacity – strengthening the region’s only protected dialysis unit, which provides uninterrupted life-sustaining treatment during emergencies, including renewal and adaptation of dialysis chairs.
