Netanya branch plans for expansion

A plan is in place to expand the Netanya branch, bringing additional Yad Sarah services to the Netanya community and enabling expansion of existing programs.   Located in a residential neighborhood, the branch will be building up, adding a third floor and planning for a possible fourth floor in the future.  

For the Day Rehabilitation Program, the renovation will enable the program to increase the number of participants and involve more volunteers, broaden the range of therapeutic activities, and enable life-enriching social contact.  We plan to increase the capacity of the Lending Service, insuring that volunteers have the resources they need to assist others and provide more space for Yad Sarah's Exhibition Center, helping people understand the options for adaptive equipment and providing guidance on community resources.  

The renovation will also add a second elevator to facilitate access for people with special needs.  Office space will be designated for Yad Sarah's Home Care and Community Services, working to increase outreach to the homebound as well as Yad Riva Legal Services, providing legal information and representation to the impoverished elderly.  

The new plan reflects state-of-the-art design and technology to make this an environmentally friendly "smart" building, upgrading the electrical, heating and air conditioning systems to a modern, cost-effective and environmentally-friendly system.
