An X-ray, something that would only happen in a hospital. You see this you think injury, hosptial. Therefore this just a small section of what might happen there is perhaps a typical thought of hospital. It represents a hospital as a whole.

Stethoscope, this something immediately related to a doctor. You see this you think a doctor, therefore the doctor represents the hospital. Visual Synecdoche for the hospita once again.
VISUAL METONYM

Sign for a hospital ahead. This sign is just a simple H but it stands as a symbol to represent the hospital ahead. We see it in a format like this and it means hospital, but not every H we see means this, this is a Visual Metonym.

This symbol represents healthcare, and is a recognised logo for healthcare, this would therefore be recognised through association to a hospital or something similar.
