As I walked up the hill in October 2022 to participate in the Hadassah Northeast walk for women's health, my first Hadassah event, I reflected on my favorite theorist, Patricia Benner, who implemented stages of learning in nursing careers as we go from novice to expert. Then in November, I found myself a novice again, as I traveled with Hadassah on my first journey to Israel. I proceeded with my eyes wide open regarding my Jewish heritage. Masada, the Old City, the Western Wall at dawn and dusk in Jerusalem as Shabbat began, the internal connection I felt as I pass by people and smile -- all this impacted me.
As I educated myself about the history of nursing at Hadassah and in Israel via my many Hadassah mentors, I was touched by many moments, such as the mother and child who approached us at the Western Wall, telling us about how her daughter had experienced respiratory distress at birth and how grateful she was for the medical professionals who operated on her with lifesaving robotic surgery. I learned the history behind Mount Scopus and Ein Kerem Hospitals and all the innovations since the time of Henrietta Szold, who is honored at every step forward. Learning of new breakthroughs to cure cancer was enthralling.
I will never forget a visit to the home of a Hadassah nurse and hearing from nurses about their roles and how important it is to care for each other. I observed their passion, as they talked about their patients. The statement, "Inside these walls we are all the same,” was so powerful. As I was planning my trip, I had some anxiety and fear; these feelings have been replaced by an inner warmth, as everyone I met in Hadassah has embraced me. I will always be grateful for this amazing experience!
