Passover Bulletin 2015 - Canadian Magen David Adom for Israel
Photo: Daniel Gonzalez/istock-thinkstock.com ISRAEL CAN’T SURVIVE WITHOUT MDA - MDA CAN’T SURVIVE WITHOUT YOU Chag Sameach and a Healthy Passover to all our Donors, Supporters and Friends PASSOVER / WINTER 2015 / 5775 • NATIONAL EDITION Holiday greetings from Norton Segal, Q.C., National President Passover commemorates the biblical story of Exodus when Hebrew slaves were released from bondage in Egypt. While it is a celebration of freedom, filled with rituals and traditions, it is also very relevant today, given the instability in the Middle East. It is for this reason that your support is so important. It is for this reason that your commitment to providing the people of Israel with essential medical equipment and medical supplies, ambulances and the finest pre-hospital medical services in the world is so important. And, it is for this reason that, as the Israeli Red Cross, we continue to supply all of Israel’s blood supply needs. Israel cannot survive without Magen David Adom. Magen David Adom cannot survive without you. MAGEN DAVID ADOM IN THE FOREFRONT OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY Always seeking ways to improve its lifesaving and humanitarian services, Magen David Adom Israel has received purchase approval for The LUCASTM Chest Compression System. LUCASTM is a safe and efficient tool that standardizes chest compressions in accordance with the latest scientific guidelines. Please be generous to our fantastic organization. Sudden cardiac arrest remains a leading cause of death in the Western hemisphere. The majority of patients die before they reach the hospital. However, with advanced care, it is possible that 25 to 30 percent of all patients could survive. Norton Segal, Q.C., National President LUCASTM assists first responders and paramedics by providing effective and uninterrupted chest compressions. In order to be able to save the lives of sudden cardiac arrest patients and avoid neurological damage, a steady supply of oxygen to the heart and brain is necessitated. Message de souhaits de la part de Norton Segal, Q.C., Président National Pessa’h commémore l’Exode biblique des esclaves hébreux libérés de leur captivité en Égypte. Bien qu’elle soit une célébration de la liberté empreinte de rituels et de traditions, cette fête n’a rien perdu de sa pertinence dans cette époque d’instabilité au Moyen-Orient. C’est pour cette raison que votre appui est si essentiel. C’est pour cette raison que votre engagement toujours si important contribue à assurer à la population d’Israël des fournitures et du matériel médical vital, des ambulances et des services médicaux préhospitaliers parmi les meilleurs au monde. Et c’est pour cette raison qu’à titre de membre international de la Croix-Rouge, nous continuons de combler la totalité des besoins en produits sanguins d’Israël. Experimental studies have shown that the mechanically controlled LUCASTM compressions are able to sustain a higher blood flow when compared to manual compressions. It provides the same quality for all patients and is independent of transport conditions and first responder fatigue. A very important aspect for MDA paramedics is that, because LUCASTM is automated, the need to shift CPR providers every two minutes is eliminated. As a result, they are freed up to focus on other critical lifesaving tasks, such as ventilation, medication and defibrillation. Israël ne peut pas survive sans Magen David Adom. Magen David Adom ne pourrait pas survivre sans vous. Exprimez votre générosité à l’égard de ce fantastique organisme. Norton Segal, Q.C., Président National With the LUCASTM cardiac arrest patients will receive effective, consistent and continuous chest compressions. Safe and effective, easy and quick, LUCASTM and Magen David Adom first responders and paramedics are a perfect fit.

Yasher Koach to all CMDA?chapters across Canada for their loyal support A R O U N D T H E C O U N T R Y NATIONAL ISRAEL REMEMBERING Shirley Moscovitch z”l Canadian Magen David Adom’s first National Executive Director, Shirley Moscovitch, passed away in February after a lengthy illness. Known as Mrs. Magen David Adom, Shirley was a force to be reckoned with, not one to be taken lightly, and determined to put CMDA on the map. And for 23 years, she did just that, making CMDA a household name so that today there are chapters across Canada. Baby girl born in MICU on the side of the road during the snowstorm. Benjamin Netanyahu visits MDA Jerusalem Station During Israel’s February snowstorm, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the MDA Jerusalem station. He met the workers and volunteers, toured the Regional Dispatch Centre and heard a full report about MDA’s activities, including the delivery of a baby girl. MDA Director General, Eli Bin, accompanied the Prime Minister and informed him about the preparedness of MDA during the storm and the lessons learned from last year’s snowstorm. He was shown the special technology and equipment used by MDA for the command and control of events and for treating the wounded under severe weather conditions. The Prime Minister praised Magen David Adom for its professional and excellent work. “I am very impressed with the work done here by the many volunteers and staff. Thanks to them, Magen David Adom is able to cope with the snowstorm in the best possible manner.” She’s done it again! Whether it was assuming responsibility for fiscal management, developing relationships with donors, mounting fundraising campaigns, representing the organization at community events, attending the annual MDA conferences in Israel, Shirley was passionate and hands on in every aspect. Even in her retirement years, Shirley maintained a close relationship with CMDA. An Honorary Director, not a week would go by without a call from Shirley to find out the latest news from Israel. Shirley will be dearly missed by all who were fortunate to have known her and to have worked with her. LONDON HAMILTON Hilda Rosen is never one to give up easily so, when she puts her mind to something, you can make sure she will succeed. Her fall fundraising campaign has enabled the purchase of a MEDUMAT CPR Ventilator for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. When Hilda was asked, “What’s next?, she responded, “whatever is needed for Magen David Adom and the People of Israel, I will do my utmost to provide.” Merci Happy 75th birthday Friends have purchased essential medical supplies in celebration of Florence Scott’s 75th Birthday. tous nos ami(e)s pour leur soutien — Am Isra l Chai 3 !
