Skver Rebbe: Opens Seperate Hatzolah for Women

The Skver Rebbe has issued to move forward with a separate hatzolah for women by women only. He believes it will be better for the sake of spirituality. The question would be: if there are no women available, do you wait until there is a woman who can take the call?

Of course not. What a stupid question.

What is more of an affront…a man ripping open a woman’s blouse to give CPR or a woman doing so to a man? I think it is way more sexually explicit for a man to be handling a woman’s private area than vice versa.

I personally know extremely capable female EMT’s, trained in Israel but refused work in Hatzolah. It is a loss for the community, the organization and an affront to their God-given/life-saving skills.

What it really comes down to is that if saving a life allows one to drive an ambulance on Shabbat, the same leniency should apply to saving a life EVEN through a woman’s touch. V’chai Bahem!

Fundamentalist Judaism is myopic and irrational (as much as they pilpulize otherwise).
