In a tragic road accident which occurred Thursday morning near Tzfat in northern Israel, Dana Ben-Shoshan, a 32-year-old mother of four, was killed.
Ben-Shoshan’s car slammed into a bus on road 89 near the entrance to Tzfat. MDA and United Hatzalah volunteers alerted to the accident attempted to resuscitate her at the scene but were forced to declare her dead. Six people on the bus were lightly injured and taken to the Sieff hospital in Tzfat. Two other passengers in the car who were lightly injured were taken to the hospital.
Ben-Shushan was employed at the Sieff hospital as a nurse and was returning from a shift. She also volunteered for United Hatzalah. A spokesman for the organization said that “We are brokenhearted, who can cure our pain…we annouce with great sorrow that a volunteer medic from the Galilee branch was killed this morning in a tragic accident near the southern entrance to Tzfat. The medic, Dana Ben-Shoshan, was critically injured while making her way home from the hospital, where she was a qualified nurse.’
“The management of the organization and its volunteers pay homage at this difficult hour and participate in the sorrow of the family. We offer condolences to her husband Chaim, who also volunteers for United Hatzalah. The psychotrauma unit of the organization is with the family and helping them as much as possible. May Hashem wipe tears off every face and eradicate death forever.”
A Chesed Fund campaign has been setup to help the Ben-Shoshan family during this difficult time.
