Task 1. Read the text and give the title:
A hospital is a health care institution providing patient treatment by specialized staff and equipment. Today, hospitals are largely staffed by professional physicians, surgeons and nurses, whereas in the past, this work was usually performed by the founding religious orders or by volunteers. There are over 17.000 hospitals in the world. In according with the original meaning of the word, hospitals were originally "places of hospitality”. Some patients go to a hospital just for diagnosis, treatment, or therapy and then leave without staying overnight; while others are 'admitted' and stay overnight or for several days or weeks or months ('inpatients').Hospitals usually are distinguished from other types of medical facilities by their ability to admit and care for inpatients while the others often are described as clinics. The best-known type of hospital is the general hospital, which is set up to deal with many kinds of disease and injury, and normally has an emergency department to deal with immediate and urgent threats to health.
