A work in progress, motivated by terms required for text mining of covid19 papers. Some term label changes, misspellings, and adding synonyms. Main column info on changed terms is below (synonyms ommitted)

ENVO:00002173 hospital healthcare facility|public building A healthcare facility building in which health care services are provided by specialized staff and equipment. ENVO                       https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9578-0788 Could also go as narrow as 'private' or 'public' hospital  
ENVO:01000932 nursing home healthcare facility A healthcare facility in which nursing professionals provide care and treatment to residents. ENVO       care home|convalescent home|rest home old people's home             https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9578-0788 Request new parent class.Didn't request adding parent class 'long-term care facility' since it already has it as a broader synonym and since not all nursing homes are long-term.Refers specifically to 'public' nursing homes. This is alright for Canada since all get some public funding for healthcare - should eventally add other 'private' options for expanding data collection internationally.Comment: Nursing aides and skilled nurses provide care and treatment to residents who have significant difficulty coping with the required activities of daily living. A nursing home's resident often have significant difficulty coping with the required activities of daily living.

Thanks @ddooley - enjoyed the hackathon on these terms. As mentioned there, we'll do some additional curation on these terms that won't interfere with your intended use.
