What units have hospitalization?

• A. Hospital Center, Field Hospital; Medical Augmentation Detachment; Surgical Augmentation Detachment
• B. Hospital Center, Field Hospital
• C. Medical Augmentation Detachment
• D. Surgical Augmentation Detachment

Answer: (A)

hospitalization capability in this context comes from both the main inpatient facilities and the teams that expand capacity when needed. A Hospital Center and a Field Hospital are designed to admit and treat patients in inpatient settings, whether in a fixed location or in the field. The Medical Augmentation Detachment and the Surgical Augmentation Detachment extend that inpatient capacity by providing additional medical and surgical teams and beds to support hospitalization when patient flow exceeds what the primary facilities can handle. Because all four units contribute to inpatient care, including augmentation detachments that bolster capacity, the option listing all of them best captures where hospitalization can occur. The other options miss one or more of these components and therefore don’t reflect the full hospitalization capability.
