TO THE EXAMINING PHYSICIAN:
Your careful attention to this Medical Reference Form is vital. Your patient has applied to participate in a rigorous volunteer work program in Israel. Your medical evaluation of the applicant’s physical condition and mental stability is essential in determining the applicant’s suitability for the project. The applicant will be working in a large hospital and the Israeli medical system requires accurate information for the well-being of both the volunteer and hospital patients. This medical data will also enable medical professionals in Israel to appropriately address any medical emergencies that your patient may face during the project. If you have questions as to the medical or psychological suitability of your patient for such a project, it would be a great disservice to the patient, the volunteer group, and the hospital to approve them.

Important Notice Regarding Immunizations
In past years, Kaplan Medical Center has required specific immunizations. This is no longer a requirement due to the nature of the work. However, we strongly suggest that you seek your doctor’s advice regarding his/her recommendations for beneficial immunizations. You may encounter possible hospital contaminants or other hazards while cleaning or performing manual labor tasks in emergency rooms, patient rooms, kitchens, older buildings, and/or maintenance spaces.
A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided.
