hospital staff
Healthcare team members
Hospital staff refers collectively to the people employed at a hospital—doctors, nurses, technicians, administrators, and support workers.
The term treats all these roles as a single group: The hospital staff worked overtime during the outbreak.
Staff here functions as a mass noun, so the phrase takes singular agreement even when referring to many individuals.
