 GOING INTO HOSPITAL
Before leaving for hospital

We suggest that you contact your rabbi and community as to when you will be in hospital. Unless you yourself pass on this information they may not find out.
If you wish, contact us at the Brighton & Hove Online Jewish Community (click on this email address yofi@btinternet.com) and we will pass your message on to the appropriate rabbi.

WHEN YOU GET TO THE HOSPITAL

Let the chaplaincy team know that you would like to be visited. They will pass this information on.

Remember that you can request kosher food at all times.

Your own rabbi is welcome to visit you in hospital. But please check with the ward about convenient times.

 PRAYER FOR A FULL RECOVERY
Refua Sh'leima

Hear my prayer and let my cry come before You.
Do not hide Your face from me in my darkness.
Lord, Healer of all flesh, have pity on me and sustain me, for I am weak.
Send me relief and healing, and also to all who are sick among Your children.
Grant wisdom to the doctor that he may cure me.
Hear my prayer and prolong my life.
Let me complete my days in happiness so that I may be able to serve You with a complete heart.
Amen

Into Your hand I commit my spirit
When I sleep as when I wake.
And with my spirit, my body also,
The Lord is with me I shall not be afraid

Shema Yisrael Hashem Elokeinu Hashem Echad
