About
A “Second Home” – Beit Halochem Centers
Beit Halochem is a unique rehabilitation, sports and recreation center serving disabled veterans and their families. It provides a place where the disabled undergo the various treatments, which they need for as long as they live. Emphasis is placed on sport as a rehabilitative tool along with a wide array of social and cultural programs.
Beit Halochem applies the philosophy that the disabled should be cared for in an environment that is both congenial to them and to those around them. In keeping with that philosophy, it offers a variety of activities to occupy the family grown-ups and children alike.
An important feature at Beit Halochem is the meeting of “generations”, bringing together old-timers with newcomers who must learn to adjust to the difficult and complex world of disability.
