> I was wondering how old the hospital data is?

The data is from OpenStreetMap, crowdsourced by volunteers.

So it might be at most a day old if we're talking about an area with several active volunteers, and a lot older if we're talking about an area that nobody cares for especially.

It's not a government or company dataset where somebody is specifically responsible for updating it at certain intervals that you can rely on.
