What is an "infirmary"?
An infirmary is a facility within an institution, such as a school, military base, or large organization, where medical care is provided for minor illnesses, injuries, or temporary health concerns. It typically offers basic medical services like first aid, treatment for common illnesses, and short-term observation for patients who are not seriously ill. Infirmaries are staffed by nurses or healthcare professionals trained to handle routine medical needs and emergencies that do not require the resources of a hospital emergency room.
