medical station
Where wounds heal
A medical station is a facility or designated area where medical care is provided, typically smaller or more temporary than a hospital.
The term appears in military contexts for field treatment locations, at events like marathons where injuries are anticipated, or in remote areas where full hospitals aren't feasible: Runners who collapse should be taken to the nearest medical station.
In science fiction, a medical station often refers to a healthcare facility on a spacecraft or space station.
