Biography

Tzipora Laskov (Hebrew: צפורה לסקוב‎, 1904-1989) was an Israeli nurse and politician.

Born in Ukraine in the Russian Empire, Laskov studied to become a nurse. She made aliyah to Mandate Palestine in 1928 via China and found work at a factory.

In 1929 she got a job as a nurse at a Histadrut hospital in Ein Harod, later working in the HaEmek hospital. She helped establish Mother and Child clinics in Hadera and Haifa, and was a member of the Nurses Organisation and the Working Mothers Organisation. During World War II Laskov and husband David volunteered for the British Army, in which she helped found the Organisation of Soldiers Wives. She also helped establish an institution for soldiers' children at Kfar Yehezkel and the Shabtai Levy children's home in Haifa.

A member of the Ahdut HaAvoda party, she was a member of the Assembly of Representatives, and in 1955 was elected to the Knesset on the party's list. However, she gave up her seat before being sworn in, and was replaced by Nahum Nir.

In 1962 she opened a community clinic for family therapy in Haifa, working there until 1967.
