Introduction
This page documents the implementation of the FHIR Location resource (DSTU2) for the OpenMRS FHIR Module.
- The FHIR Location Resource provides information for a physical place where services are provided and resources and participants may be stored, found, contained or accommodated.
- For more information on the FHIR Location resource, please refer http://hl7-fhir.github.io/location.html
Populating the FHIR Location Resource
Shown below is how attributes of the FHIR Location Resource map to the attributes of the OpenMRS Location object. The left side of the relationship indicates the OpenMRS attribute; the right indicates the FHIR Location resource mapping.
Location
Integer uuid :: n/a - goes in the URL e.g. [base]/Location/[locationId] String name :: Location.name String description :: Location.description String address1 :: Address.line String address2 :: Address.line String cityVillage :: Address.city String stateProvince :: Address.state String country :: Address.country String postalCode ::Address.zip String latitude :: Location.position.longitude String longitude :: Location.position.latitude String countyDistrict :: not mapped String address3 :: Address.line String address4 :: Address.line String address6 :: Address.line String address5 :: Address.line Location parentLocation :: Location.partOf Set<Location> childLocations :: not mapped
