hospital wards
Medical floor divisions
Hospital wards are sections of a hospital where patients with similar conditions or needs are grouped together.
A maternity ward houses new mothers and infants; a psychiatric ward treats mental health patients; an intensive care unit is a ward for critical cases.
The word evokes long rooms with rows of beds, though modern wards often have private or semi-private rooms: She spent three days on the cardiac ward.
