2024 Gala evening

- 22 NEW DEPARTMENTS OPENED IN 2024 The current Invasive Cardiology Center at Laniado Hospital serves approximately, half a million residents of the city of Netanya and the entire Sharon region. The location of the hospital, halfway between Hadera and Tel Aviv, makes the center a base for the treatment of Catheterization for many people. Over the last few years, both the city and the Sharon region have developed, resulting in a significant demographic increase. Today, the current Invasive Cardiology Center has only 2 hospital Catheterization Rooms. It is staffed by a multidisciplinary professional team with a great reputation and much experience. Therefore Laniado has added this second machine and now has a Heart Medicine Wing . This is due to an essential need to avoid the discomfort of the scores of patients who undergo long waiting times, despite the catheterization unit operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We performed 1,059 catheterizations in 2023, 20% of which were patients arriving in the middle of a heart attack, when every moment could mean the difference between life and death. Now the hospital can treat many more patients and the additional Interventional Heart Medicine Wing will make it possible to provide adequate treatment to the population in need of this life-saving care. This Interventional Heart Medicine Wing will solve the problem of lack of Interventional Heart Medicine procedures distance to other hospitals which are 20-25 miles away and in many cases will make the difference between life and death. The Interventional Heart Medicine Wing will allow Laniado to do other life-saving additional procedures.
