History

The medical facility in Kfar Saba was opened to the public on July 15, 1956, as a hospital for tuberculosis and diseases of the respiratory system. Later in 1962, Meir was turned into a general hospital and is now part of the Sapir Medical Center.[http://www.clalit.co.il/he-il/english about clalit health services] ] Clalit Health Services (formerly known as Kupat Holim Clalit) built the original hospital thanks to the pivotal influence of Dr. Alfred Grünebaum.

Meir Hospital serves the ethnically diverse communities of the highly populated eastern Sharon plain, including Israeli Arab or Palestinian patients from the Triangle towns and villages. The hospital is named after Dr. Joseph Meir (1890–1955). Meir thought healthcare should be an equal public service, without elitism, and worked towards that goal after arriving in Palestine during the Third Aliyah.Meir Medical Center: About Us >> History
