Hospital
The term hospital derives from the Latin word hospitalis, which relates to guests and
their treatment. The word reflects the early use of these institutions not merely as places of
healing but as havens for the poor or for weary travelers.
Hospitals first appeared in Greece as aesculapia, named after the Greek god of
medicine, Aesculapius. For many centuries they developed in association with religious
institutions, such as the Hindu hospitals opened in Sri Lanka in the 5th century BC and the
monastery-based European hospitals of the Middle Ages (5th century to 15th century). The
Hôtel Dieu in Paris, a monastic hospital founded in AD 660, is still in operation today.
Hospitals employ medical, nursing, and support staff to provide inpatient care to people
who require close medical monitoring and outpatient care to people who need treatment but
not constant medical attention. Hospitals provide diagnosis and medical treatment of physical
and mental health problems, surgery, rehabilitation, health education programs, and nursing
and physician training. Many hospitals also serve as centers for innovative research and
medical technology.
Hospitals are typically organized into medical departments, or units, such as an
emergency room, surgical suites, intensive care units (ICUs), pediatric and maternity wards,
departments of radiology, anesthesiology, pathology, and rehabilitative medicine.
