ABOUT US
SHABBOS IN
THE HOSPITAL
The local hospitals and Ronald McDonald staff are extremely familiar with Shabbos and are there to assist and coordinate as needed – Ask for the Chaplain on-call.
Rabbi Kaufman generally will come around on Friday to review Shabbos with the staff.
Hot Logic (small hot plates) are available for families to use in the hospital and at Ronald McDonald. Please call Bikur Cholim if you cannot locate them.
Electric Candles are handed out by Rabbi Kaufman or the Hospital staff. PLEASE NO fire allowed in the hospital building at anytime.
There is an Eruv at Children’s – from the G building, the emergency room entrance, and the side door of the Ronald McDonald.
