About the portal

This portal is an information guide to old-age homes, nursing wards, sheltered housing and day centres in Israel. It helps families find the basics about a place for an older relative: address, phone and, where they exist, licence and official inspections.

The information comes from the registries of the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Welfare and the Ministry of Construction and Housing, and from other public sources such as the places' own websites and the Kol Sherut directory. Each value names its source, and usually the date it was read. You can search by name, city or type of place, and filter by region, funding and size.

The portal is an information board, not a recommendation service: we do not rate quality, do not recommend any particular place, and are not a party to any agreement between a family and a place.
