short-stay unit (or -- [s...] services unit)


Explanation:
"U" liek domāt, ka tā ir kāda nodaļa (unit), respektīvi, angļu saīsinājums.

1) Medicīnā populārs ir "short-stay unit" (īstermiņa hospitalizācijas nodaļa).

2) Varētu būt kaut kāda "s... services unit"... jāmin, jo ar "s-" ir daudz vārdu.

....
SSUs have three main functions:
1. Observation.
2. Specialist assessment and diagnosis.
3. Short-term high-level management."

Notes to answerer
Asker: This is indeed an English acronym, but it means, in the context of a newly established site for a clinical trial, Site Start-Up. I got this from the client.
