The Jewish community of Moscow has announced that they have “joined the ranks” and established “Hatzolah of Moscow”.
As is with all other Hatzolah’s, the organization was formed to reduce the delayed response time of the standard EMS in Moscow.
R’ Dovid Greenwald of Hatzolah Israel has personally visited Moscow for the launch of Moscow Hatzolah, bringing with him a team of instructors from Hatzolah and MADA.
The FJC News agency has reported that during the past week, thirty volunteers received courses in first aid and emergency response.
Moscow Hatzolah will be coordinated together with Moscow’s ambulance services and local hospitals.

this something ! i’t shows that the kehilah is be’acdus & look at themself as jews not Russaien
This is a very much needed service. I lived in Moscow for 13 years, and the equivalent of the official EMS there is a sad joke. There are quite a few trained medical doctors in the Moscow kehilla who are in business or do other types of work because of the low pay and oversupply of doctors in Russia; these people make perfect Hatzoloh volunteers.
Does anyone have an address ( or e-mail) of moscow or of R’ Dovid Greenwald. Thanks
Click on the Hatzolah Israel advertisement located on the side of Yeshivaworld homepage and you can find him there.
Hatzolah Israel is his organization.
Good luck.
