Establishing a first stage of evaluation of symptoms at institutional level
Pienso que en este caso es mejor referirse como primera etapa en el contexto del comunicado y no al lugar físico de la evaluación. (stage vs center)

(clinical) assessment center // outdoor clinical assessment unit
Establecimiento de ***puesto de evaluación inicial de síntomas*** a nivel institucional.
Esto es, [se insta, recomienda u ordena que] las instituciones sanitarias establezcan un puesto de evaluación inicial de síntomas.
Creo que, en el contexto dado -y salvo explicitación contraria en el texto original), estos puestos o unidades de evaluación clínica no deben confundirse con unidades de triaje (initial assessment units). Aunque parecidos desde el punto de vista funcional, el ejemplo paradigmático de un puesto de evaluación clínica sería un centro de salud (España) -pero también un puesto médico especialmente constituido para tal fin (evaluación clínica de casos leves-moderados con algún grado de sospecha de covid) o incluso una centralita de coordinación médica con apoyo clínico local.
En inglés, (clinical) assessment center creo que podría funcionar como concepto equivalente, aunque "center" no me acaba de convencer. Sin embargo units por ejemplo (clinical assessment unit) es utilizado con el sentido de un servicio hospitalario, con lo que no funcionaría en este caso. Tal vez outdoor clinical assessment units, aunque con outdoor tal vez se esté excluyendo la posible alusión a puestos de coordinación y evaluación clínica no presenciales (telefónicos, telemáticos).
En fin, tan solo algunas ideas por si ayudan.
COVID-19 Assessment Centre
The first COVID-19 Assessment Centre is now open. The COVID-19 Assessment Centre is an out-of-hospital clinic where people will be assessed by a health-care provider and tested for COVID-19 if required. It is operated by The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) and CHEO, in partnership with Ottawa Public Health (OPH) and the City of Ottawa.
You should come to the Assessment Centre, not the Emergency Department, if:
You have a new or worsening cough and/or fever, and
In the past 14 days have either travelled outside of Canada or been in contact with someone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19.

Opino que, al traducir y al pensar, no hay por qué hipotetizar más datos que los aportados y mínimos. Cordiales saludos. MP
Firstly, I have to thank you for all the comments and answers.
Secondly, I will see if the document provides more context about the term.
Once again, thank you very much!
