rehab unit

Treatment center wing

A rehab unit is a section of a hospital or medical facility dedicated to rehabilitation—helping patients recover function after injury, surgery, stroke, or illness.

The term also appears in substance abuse treatment contexts, where it refers to an inpatient facility or wing for addiction recovery.
