Bikkur Holim means to visit and extend aid to the sick. Those involved with Bikkur Holim can provide comfort and support to anyone who is homebound and in distress, in any setting, such as a rehabilitation center, a nursing home, a hospital or in their own homes.
It is traditional to recite prayers for healing known as the Mi Shebeirach in the synagogue.
If you know of a congregant who needs a visit, a ride, support and/or comfort or would like a name to be added to the Mi Shebeirach please contact Rabbi Buechler at rabbibuechler@gmail.com or 631.499.6644.
