Usually we call them Minor surgery or Outpatient surgery... or simply OUTPATIENT referring to the person just operated.

This would be an "Outpatient" operation in England. A few years ago I had a minor operation in hospital. Then I went home on a bus. This was done in the Outpatients' department.

Well............

I hope you meant Day Surgery as I had suggested in my other response.

Day Hospital is a term we use to describe a mental health outpatient program. The patient (MI) attends a program for 5-6 hours a day, 5 days/week. Usually the patient is not "bad" enough to need inpatient care but sick enough to need more than the usual outpatient appointments which may be as far apart as every 3 months.

A Day Hospital program usually involves group therapy, occupational therapy, music therapy, and medication.
