Medical Volunteers for Israel

Israel Ministry of Health banner

In light of the ongoing situation in Israel, the Israeli Ministry of Health is building a list of medical personnel from abroad to volunteer in Israel should the need arise. In the event of further strains on the health system, as well as in preparation for future natural or man-made disasters, the Ministry invites friends of Israel to add their names to our growing community of medical personnel who stand with Israel.

Sign up for the opportunity to receive CME credits in the future, train with Israeli teams and connect with friends of Israel in your area.

Doctors, nurses and paramedics licensed abroad can join Medical Volunteers for Israel using the Ministry of Health’s online form below, to ensure pre-clearance of medical licenses.
