The Story Behind Our Rooms
Gezint provides a Kosher Pantry, stocked with kosher food, that includes a refrigerator, freezer, microwave coffe and tea in alomst all wards in hospitals in the UK.
Our goal is to ensure that patients admitted that might not be prepared for admissions to have the basic snacks and other jewish necessities e.g. snacks, siddurim, tehillim, tallis, tefillin, and other.
During holiday seasons we will ensure our pantries are fully stocked with the seasonal necessities e.g. shofar,megilla, lulev etrog etc.
