What does Kabayim mean?
Kabayim, means "crutches" in
Hebrew, the idea being that this website offers support for students - until
such a time when "they'll be able to stand on their own two feet..."
The site,
developed and maintained privately by a nursing instructor, has been open
since December 2004
and boasts over 500,000 entries during this period!
Kabayim is made up of
different sections - all written in Hebrew only (at this time). The most
meaningful section for the English speaker is the "Virtual Class" which is a
directory of all the various subjects relevant to students of the health
professions.
I have taken care in choosing
websites that are targeted mainly towards health professionals - many of
them maintained by universities and colleges around the world. While
striving to choose only sites that seem impartial, informative and reliable,
I cannot be held responsible for the different sites' materia. Always employ
an open and critical mind when searching for, and reading sites on the Web!
I have provided a menu on
this page that directs to the different sections in the Virtual Class. While
the web pages are mainly written in Hebrew, I also supply the name of the
sites in English, so that it should not be to much of a problem to
understand where the link is to. You will also note that the sub-sections on
each page are translated into English.
I hope you find this site
useful. Please note that any information derived from this site is for
academic purposes only and is not to be regarded as personal medical advice
in any way.
Can you Recommend any other
health related professional sites? Do you find my site useful?
Please let me know!
