Looks like a handheld shower hanging off the partition. This is reminiscent of Byberry with nothing but tile tile tile. The dropped ceiling looks out of place.

I think that metal door on the left might be for a fire hose or something. Although why they need a fire hose in a tiled room that is almost always wet is besides me.

After living at the hospital for ten years, I learned that hydrothrophy was the use of a patient being put into a bath tub, covered with a canvas except for their head, and ice added to the tub until they went into shock. This was the best treatment of the day to stop a person from acting out and hurting themselves or others. The tub was in front of that partition. And no there was no privacy at all while a patient there, night or day.
