klinikoilla

Klinikoilla is a Finnish locative form of the noun klinikka, meaning clinic. It represents the adessive plural form used to indicate location at or in multiple clinics. In everyday Finnish, klinikoilla is used when talking about activities, services, or events that occur at several clinics.

The term is typically employed in healthcare and administrative contexts. It can describe where medical examinations, treatments, or patient care take place, or where staff operate. Because it marks location rather than a specific instance, klinikoilla is often found in general statements rather than references to a single, identified site. When referring to one clinic, the corresponding singular form klinikkalla is used.

Grammatical notes are relevant for correct usage. Klinikka in singular nominative is klinikka, with plural klinikat. The adessive suffix -lla attaches to the plural stem to form klinikoilla. Other related forms include klinikkalla (at the clinic) for singular reference and klinikoilla in contexts discussing multiple facilities.

Examples:

- Sairaanhoitopalvelut paranevat, kun klinikoilla on riittävästi hoitajia.

- Tutkimukset suoritetaan useilla klinikoilla, eikä keskitetysti yhdessä paikassa.

Klinikoilla functions as a standard Finnish locative expression, commonly encountered in health care discourse and descriptive writing about medical facilities.
