The Neurology Division

The primary goal of the Neurology Division at the Shamir Medical Center is to provide the highest level of diagnosis and treatment for patients suffering from various diseases related to the central and peripheral nervous system.

The Neurology Division includes the neurology hospitalization department, the neurosurgical unit, neurological outpatient hospitalization, and the neurological institute (outpatient clinics).

Neurology Department

The Neurology Department at the Shamir Medical Center comprises 33 hospitalization beds. The department has regular hospitalization beds as well as dedicated hospitalization beds for patients requiring increased monitoring, such as patients after interventional treatment of stroke (catheterization and/or thrombolitic treatment), patients with active convulsive disease, respiratory or hemodynamics instability, and more.


Neurological Outpatient Hospitalization

The Neurological Outpatient Hospitalization Unit is part of the Neurology Division at the Shamir Medical Center.

This is carried out without a prolonged hospitalization, allowing complex diagnostics and treatment without significantly disrupting the patient’s routine.
