Meanwhile, the country\u2019s work in the field of mental health rehabilitation has also been going through a significant crisis. These crises, at the State and rehabilitation level, affect the complexities of those dealing with mental health issues.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Mental health is traditionally considered the &#8220;hidden part&#8221; of the field of disabilities. Today, the field of mental health rehabilitation needs a significant increase in the budget for the development of trauma-sensitive therapists and the training of rehabilitation teams. Restoring mental health at this time is critical at a time when large and growing sectors of the population are suffering from stress, mental difficulties and more.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As an occupational therapist who manages Ono\u2019s School of Integration, Rehabilitation and Recovery, I see great value in raising awareness about the field of mental rehabilitation and the possibility for every person to recover.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Dr. Sarah Daas-Iraqi<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ono Rehabilitation Director Discusses the Importance of Mental Health Treatment at This Time Dr. Sara Daas\u2013Iraqi is a Lecturer in the Bachelor&#8217;s Degree program in Education and Society in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":30897,"menu_order":292,"template":"","class_list":["post-30896","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categories_news-updates_news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/30896","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30897"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ono.ac.il\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30896"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
