Maimonides - The Rambam
Moses Mimonides the RAMBAM

Rambam is named for 12th century Rabbi Moses Maimonides (the Rambam), who in addition to being one of the greatest philosophers, teachers and scholars in Jewish history, by day served in the palace of Sultan Salah-a-Din of Egypt as court physician, and by night cared for a steady stream of Arab and Jewish patients rich and poor.

The designation signals our hospital’s aimalways to be guided by the RAMBAM’s practice of superlative devotion to patients and to the art of healing.
This ideal finds resonance in the Prayer of Maimonides.
