Medical - Medical: Health Care / hospital construction
French term or phrase: plateau technique
I am translating from french a description of a hospital that was built with a "plateau technique" that could evolve in many directions thanks to the fluids or services being incorporated with -in the structure leaving the floors or "plateau" free.

"C'est le premier plateau technique évolutif réalisé en France.
Sa conception traduit deux objectifs.
La flexibilité interne qui permet au plateau technique de s'adapter à l'évolution des techniques médicales
-par l'intégration des fluides à la structure poteaux-gaines qui liberent des plateaux libres.
- par la dissociation de l'hébergement et du plateau technique pour ne pas compromettre la souplesse interne par des descente de charges et de fluides;"
La croissance du plateau technique

English translation:theatre and clinical support block
Explanation:
I attach what Kiwipedia has noted:

PLATEAU TECHNIQUE Often = salles d'opération, laboratoires, etc. = theatre and clinical support block
Qu'est-ce que le plateau technique ou médico-technique ?
Il s'agit de l'ensemble des équipements biomédicaux, techniques et informatiques (comme les scanners) et du personnel spécialisé (biologistes, laborantines, radiologues, pharmaciens ...) qui réalisent des examens ou analyses, prescrivent des médicaments ...
Plateau technique / Blocs Opératoires
Notre plateau technique comprend 5 salles d'opération et une salle de réveil de 8 lits, toutes de très haut niveau
Le plateau technique est susceptible de recevoir des patients nécessitant des soins dans 9 spécialités médicales:
- Ophtalmologie,
- Odontologie,
- Neurologie (électroencéphalographie),
- Cardiologie (électrocardiographie),
- Pneumologie, Radiologie,
- Podologie,
- Anesthésie,
- Gastro-entérologie,
Clinical support system
Systems used by services departments to manage their internal processing control. Clinical support services include pathology and radiology. (see also Ancillary Services).
Ancillary service
Support service in a hospital or healthcare facility which is not direct patient care delivery. (for example - laundry, portage, catering, cleaning, stores).
The hospital is managed in functional Care Groups - Emergencies (Medicine, Elderly Medicine and A&E), Perioperative (General and Orthopaedic surgery, Dental/Orthodontics, Ophthalmology, Anaesthetics and theatre services), Women and Children (Maternity, Gynaecology and Paediatrics), Clinical Support (Radiology, Pathology, Therapies, Pharmacy and Rehabilitation). Each of these has an Associate Medical Director, as does the Clinical Governance Care Group (Audit, Risk Management and Education).

As always, technique in French covers a multitude of sins.
