|
Who is This For:
For all hospices, hospitals,
nursing homes, synagogues, or any facility or program
created to care for the Jewish terminally ill.
The National Institute For Jewish Hospice Training and
Accreditation Program is designed to inform and educate
staff, doctors, nurses, volunteers, social workers, and
anyone involved in the treatment and care of the Jewish
terminally ill. |
|
All training is
provided by
Rabbi Dr. Maurice Lamm and other renowned professionals. |
| |
Yearly Accreditation accomplishes
two objectives:
1. It affirms to the public
that those hospices that are accredited are aware
and capable of handling the needs of all Jewish
patients, on the entire spectrum of religious and
ethnic observance.
2. It trains the mostly non-Jewish health care specialists
in a variety of specialized areas, presented by Rabbi
Dr. Maurice Lamm, for a full day,
plus supplemental communal lectures.
|
|
| Yearly membership provides your hospice

|
1. Four-hour training
session that includes a yearly NIJH membership

2. Referrals by NIJH to anyone needing a hospice in your
vicinity.
