Hospital ward

A hospital ward is a dedicated area within a hospital where patients receive medical care and stay while they recover from illness, surgery, or injury. Wards are usually organized by medical specialties, such as cardiology or surgery, and contain beds, medical equipment, and staff to monitor and support patients’ health. The aim is to provide a safe, comfortable environment for treatment, ongoing assessment, and recovery, with healthcare professionals continuously overseeing patient needs and coordinating care.
