Improvements in Child Care Centers in Jerusalem

by Betzalel Kahn

Improvements will soon be made in Jerusalem's Tipat Chalav (Child and Mother Care) centers, according to Rabbi Yechiel Turgeman, chairman of Health Services in the Jerusalem Municipality.

Meeting with senior officials in the Health Services Department, Rabbi Turgeman heard extensive reports about the services offered to children and mothers in Tipat Chalav clinics throughout the city. He learned that many Tipat Chalav clinics are located in old, overcrowded buildings, with conditions which do not enable nurses to offer maximal care.

Last week, a new Tipat Chalav was dedicated in Jerusalem's Pisgat Ze'ev neighborhood. The center will serve half of the residents of that large neighborhood. At the dedication, Rabbi Turgeman praised department workers, who are doing much on behalf of Jerusalem's mothers and children. The Municipality, with the aid of the Housing Ministry and Mifal Hapayis will soon dedicate a new Tipat Chalav in Ramat Shlomo.
