Ambulatory Care
I used to work in an ambulatory care center which was a clinic outside the main hospital that saw an outpatient population. Not that one had to be walking in because we had a fair share of patients that came in w/motorized wheelchair.
I don't know whether in most cities unattached surgery centers are called ambulatory care surgery centers or outpatient surgery centers.. I still call the Emergency Dept. the Emergency Room as in go to the ER now vs. go to the ED now. No matter how many times I see ED in print I just can't get into calling it that.
