Admissions ward Explanation: This is the ward where in which patients are admitted to hospital. They may then be transferred to specialist wards (or discharged) after initial examinations. "Liegend" only means that they get a hospital bed - ie. they are inpatients - namely those patients who spend the night in hospitals. For more on admissions and inpatients, see the website cited below Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9507440 |
