Polling stations opened in hospitals for inpatients and medical staff
Published
Special polling stations have been opened in hospitals across Israel for inpatients and for medical staff. The aim is to enable people who are in a medical institution to vote, even if they cannot get to a regular polling station.
Polling stations are located in general hospitals, psychiatric hospitals, nursing hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals. In addition, there is a polling station in every institution with more than 50 hospital beds. This way, anyone who is hospitalized can take part in the elections at the place where they are.
To vote at a polling station in a hospital, certain conditions are required. The vote is intended for inpatients and employees of the medical institution, so each person should check what they need to do before voting.
Opening polling stations in medical institutions allows many citizens to take part in the democratic process. It also shows that the system is trying to give an equal opportunity to everyone who wants to vote.
