Spanish term

centro de demostración sanitaria

Spanish to English Social Sciences Medical: Health Care Hospitals
From a book on bridges from Spain, for translation to British English:

"En el km XX de la [carretera] comienza la trama urbana, existiendo a ambos lados dos centros sanitarios: una residencia sanitaria y un centro de demostración sanitaria, esto hace que exista mucho tránsito de personas entre ambos centros."

I understand "residencia sanitaria" as (basically at least) a hospital

national medical research and teaching centre

For a guide book of this kind you may want a descriptive translation that is not too jarring or technocratic to a reader more interested in historic bridges. I believe the specific institution you mention is in Talavera de la Reina, and described at the URL I post below. The full name in Spanish is the "Centro Nacional de Demostracion Sanitaria" but according to the URL its purpose is to serve as an administrative, teaching and research hospital. My suggestion, for the purposes of your project, to describe it functionally. It is abbreviated as the "CNDS", so you could use that along with the explanatory name if you want to make it specifically identifiable for the reader.
