2016
During 2016 , ALEH expanded its activities on the international level , providing expertise about caring for people with disabilities in a variety of frameworks , both within Israel and abroad . Rikki Freulich is the head nurse at ALEH Jerusalem . In September , Rikki gave a series of lectures , as well as newspaper and TV interviews , in Holland , on the topic “ Quality of Life vs . Value of Life .” She eloquently described how Israel , as a democratic state , deals with medical ethical dilemmas according to Jewish tradition . The talks presented new viewpoints and issues to audiences , including nursing students , that they had not previously considered . The feedback to her talks was excellent , and pointed out how clearly her love and dedication to ALEH ’ s children shone through her words .
