Staff are the actual medical personnel: doctors, nurses, orderlies, therapists, etc.

Administration are the ones who run the business side of the hospital. They're the ones you interact with to pay your bill, make complaints, throw fundraisers, etc.

There is some overlap, of course. Chief of Staff is an administrative position, but that person is always a doctor.
