Spanish term or phrase:box
I wonder if there is a single word that would apply to the four uses of "box" below. It evidently refers to treatment rooms for individual patients. 'Unit' wouldn't work because hospital units typically care for several patients. A 'station' are usually open; a 'bed' is open (and has already been mentioned), etc.
"Se espera se transforme en el centro de alta especificidad de la región metropolitana y cuenta con una infraestructura de 10 camas en sala de observación, 6 box de aislamiento, 2 box de reanimación, 1 box quemados y 12 box de atención"

My experience of the word "box" in Spain shows that it is used in two contexts. One which means "cubicle" with space for only one patient bed/trolley, and "bay" which is a separate space within the accident and emergency area with several beds or trolleys of patients under observation or waiting to be transferred to wards.
