Renowned for its innovative approach to community health promotion and the key role of the nurse in treatment, prevention, teaching and research, the Philip and Sally Lown Hadassah Community Health Centre in Jerusalem is a model where the nurse is a member of a comprehensive multidisciplinary team that comprises family and paediatric physicians, epidemiologists, psychologist, statistician, social worker, health educator, health recorder, dietician and other public health specialists. As such, the nurse actively participates in the planning, implementation and evaluation of all new programmes, improvements and policy changes. Below, how the nurse works as a team member in the community centre.
