James A. Walsh Mar 24, 2023: Inpatient unit? (or "ward") When you stay over at a hospital for whatever treatment, you're called an "in-patient" in English where I come from (Ireland). I'm pretty sure that's what is meant here. And while I think "unit" is a safe bet for the translation of "unité" here, we generally tend to call them a "ward" in English... https://www.lawinsider.com/dictionary/inpatient-unit#:~:text...

Conor McAuley Mar 24, 2023: In idiomatic English, ignoring the French a bit, I would say Stay in hospital Hospital stay Overnight stay(s) or slightly more formally Hospital accommodation

Peer comment(s):

agree	Andrew Bramhall : Sounds good to me! 1 hr
neutral	Emmanuella : Hébergement dans l'Unité Medicale 1023 et non Unité Médicale d'Hébergement 14 hrs
agree	Tony M 20 hrs
neutral	James A. Walsh : If this is a hospital or clinic or whatever, I would never expect to see "accommodation unit" in English, like, Ever! 1 day 2 hrs
	see https://www.gosh.nhs.uk/your-hospital-visit/patient-and-fami... We keep a ‘waiting list’ for the other parent – if there is space in our accommodation units by the evening, we will offer them somewhere to stay as well but can’t guarantee
