waiting, temporary,

This term seems to be uniquely Israeli. The השהיה unit is where they put people who have been in the ER after they have been examined, while they wait until a space opens in another unit. I haven't found the perfect word for it yet.

Yes. It's where patients wait. It's a department and it's not a department.
Note from asker:
So it's sort of like stand-by?
