Who It Fits
A Patient Guide workshop fits any organization that serves or employs people aged 60+, and any organization that wants to stand out in how it supports its clients or employees in the digital world.
🏡 Senior Residences & Assisted Living
A monthly or quarterly program for residents. One workshop for 15-20 participants, with optional follow-up in small groups. A natural fit for English-speaking communities in Jerusalem and beyond, and for mixed Hebrew-English residences.
- Residents gain independent contact with family on WhatsApp
- The residence positions itself as digitally forward
🏛️ Municipalities & Community Centers
Programs for welfare departments, senior citizens units, day centers, community centers, and libraries. English-language workshops serve neighborhoods with large English-speaking populations.
- Fits Active Aging and community programs
- Cooperation with social services directors
🤝 Pensioner & Volunteer Organizations
Workshops for members nationwide, with an optional train-the-trainer track that prepares lead volunteers to keep the learning going.
- Train-the-trainer model available

💼 Tech Companies (employee benefit)
A monthly staff workshop: "How to coach your parents on technology". Employees gain practical tools, their parents get quality support, and the company offers a benefit nobody else does.
- A fresh angle in the employee benefits market
- 45-60 minute lunch-and-learn format
🏦 Banks & Financial Companies
Digital platforms that need onboarding for older customers. A B2B2C option: the bank or insurance company pays, and the customer receives the training free.
- In-branch workshop or virtual on Zoom
- Materials branded with your logo (add-on)
Three Layers of Value-Based Pricing
Pricing reflects the value the organization receives, the group size, and the program length. Every proposal is tailored after a free 20-minute consultation call.
| Format | Description | Pricing |
|---|---|---|
| One-off workshop | 90 minutes, 10-20 participants. One focused topic (for example, independence with the Kupat Holim app, or safe WhatsApp for seniors). Printed help sheets for every participant. | 4,000-8,000 ILS |
| Session series | 4-8 sessions over 2-3 months. A structured learning track, progress follow-up, and a detailed summary report with insights. | 18,000-40,000 ILS |
| Annual program | A fixed monthly program, train-the-trainer for your staff, branded materials, and ongoing WhatsApp support for participants. For chains and large companies. | Custom quote |
Per participant: a workshop of 15-20 people comes to 200-400 ILS per person, within the accepted range for professional workshops in Israel. This is a hands-on workshop on the participants' own devices, with help sheets and follow-up support, as opposed to a frontal lecture.

10-20 participants in one guided workshop. A larger group splits into two sessions, so every participant gets personal attention during practice.
What about mixed levels in one group?
The fit call maps the audience in advance, and the practice is layered: advanced participants get an extra challenge, beginners get close guidance. Nobody is left behind.
Which languages?
Hebrew and English. An English workshop is a natural fit for English-speaking communities and Anglo residences.

Engagement is arranged with your procurement or bookkeeping, with the required approvals. Cancellation or rescheduling up to 14 days in advance, free of charge.
