Description: As doctors and nurses monitor patients' physical health, a holistic team of mental health and religious professionals, friends, family members, and caregivers tends to the emotional and spiritual needs of patients. While we serve patients of all backgrounds, Sivitz personnel are specifically trained to be sensitive to particular Jewish issues and religious traditions such as keeping Kosher and observing the Sabbath.
