location where sick and injured people receive medical treatment
Hospital
A hospital is an institution for
health care, often but not always providing for longer-term patient stays. Today, hospitals are usually funded by the state, health organizations (
for profit or
non-profit),
health insurances or
charities, including direct charitable donations. In history, however, they were often founded and funded by religious orders or charitable individuals and leaders. Hospitals are nowadays staffed by professional
physicians,
surgeons and
nurses, whereas in history, this work was usually done by the founding religious orders or by volunteers.
