Catalan term or phrase: habitació assistencial
This describes a new hospital:

"L’edifici hospitalari es distribueix en tres parts ben diferenciades. N’hi ha una formada per quatre braços, on se situen les unitats d’hospitalització amb algunes dependències auxiliars. Aquests edificis disposen de cinc o sis plantes de manera que a les inferiors estan allotjats els serveis auxiliars (cuines, vestidors, arxius, sales d’operacions, etc.), mentre que a les plantes superiors hi ha les habitacions assistencials. Cal destacar­hi, com a elements singulars, la sala d’actes i alguns recintes destinats a instal.lacions. "

I think it means "patient treatment rooms", but then it highlights the "sala d'actes", which puts doubt in my mind.

How do others read it please?
Many thanks

treatment rooms
Explanation:
I also understand it, like Montse, to refer to rooms where patients receive care/assistance, so I would go with your initial reading/translation. They might also, as Margaret suggests, be rooms set aside as GPs Surgeries (something which is common in small town clinics/hospitals) but without any further context/info to back this up I'd go with your first option.
