Decoration in a hospital room (5)
I believe the answer is:
award
'decoration' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'a hospital room' is the wordplay.
'hospital room' becomes 'ward' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'ward'='AWARD'
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for award that I've seen before include "Honour, accolade." , "Give, grant" , "Perhaps Tony" , "Grant made by a court of law" , "Decoration" .)
