What is a "ward"?
A ward in a hospital is a section or area where patients with similar medical needs or conditions are placed and cared for. Each ward is typically managed by nurses and healthcare professionals who monitor patients' health, give treatments, and provide ongoing care. Wards can specialize in different medical disciplines such as surgery, pediatrics, or oncology, depending on the hospital's resources and patient needs. The layout of a ward usually includes patient beds, medical equipment, and supplies for healthcare staff to deliver medical treatment and support to patients.
