5774
has BH been a year of immense blessing for Hatzolah.
Moving into our new base, the upgrading of our older
ambulances, the enlargement of the team with 14 new
volunteer responders and 6 new dispatchers, the up-skilling of
various current team members who are undertaking part time
and full time study to upgrade their skills, completing the move
over to electronic, tablet-based dispatching and patient
reporting, and of course the opening of our new medical
gemach.
It is my firm belief that an organisation that is not improving
itself continually is not a healthy and vibrant organisation, and it
is with pride that we, at team Hatzolah, are able to say the
organisation is thriving!
To every member of team Hatzolah that plays a role in the
workings of the organisation – on behalf of the community I
thank you profusely. Nobody outside of our Hatzolah family will
ever really appreciate the passion and commitment that goes
into making this a world-class emergency medical response
team. It ismy honour and privilege toworkwith you.
To the Jewish community – the people we serve 365 days a year
come rain or shine – it would not be possible for our team to do
what they dowithout your continuous support and partnership .
May Hashem bless team Hatzolah for their work, and may
Hashem bless the Jewish community for their support, and
together may we all be inscribed and sealed for a safe, healthy
and sweet 5775!
Hatzolah&Redemption
We are taught by our sages that Hashem redeemed the Jewish
people from their bondage in Egypt only when they took
responsibility toperformacts of kindness for each other.
The Chofetz Chaim explains that the same principle applies to
bringing an end to our present exile and misfortunes. Only
through acts of kindness and caring for each other will this bitter
exile come to an end.
Hatzolah embodies the ultimate act of generosity and dedication
to helping others. Saving a person in dire need gives him a new
license on life. All of his future years, accomplishments,
relationships and wonderful deeds are a direct result of the
immediate and professional medical response of the whole
Hatzolah team.
Hatzolah is a vital pillar of chessed in our community. Their
amazingwork assures that the redemption is close at hand.
May Hatzolah continue to enjoy the help from Hashem and the
assistance and support of our whole community, so that all its
dedicatedmembers can carry on their sacredwork.
Thank You!
