## Resource Profile: AU Core Location

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-location | Version: 1.1.0-preview
Standards status: Trial-use | Maturity Level: 2 | Computable Name: AUCoreLocation

This profile sets minimum expectations for a Location resource to record, search, and fetch information about a location. It is based on the AU Base Location profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Location when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context.

See Comparison with other national and international IGs for a comparison between AU Core profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.

### Usage scenarios

The following are supported usage scenarios for this profile:

- Record or update basic information for a location
- Read information about a location referenced by another resource

### Profile specific implementation guidance

- See guidance on the construction of an identifier on the relevant Identifier profile page and the section on Business Identifiers in AU Base.
- When constructing an address
  - an international address can be represented using the core Address data type
  - an Australian address SHOULD be represented using the Australian Address data type profile

Usage:

- Refer to this Resource Profile: AU Core Encounter
- Examples for this Resource Profile: Tindal Building, Murrabit Public Hospital and Patient's home
- CapabilityStatements using this Resource Profile: AU Core Requester CapabilityStatement and AU Core Responder CapabilityStatement

Changes since version 1.0.0:

- The resource metadata has changed (description)

### Notes:

Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters and combined search parameters. See the AU Core CapabilityStatements for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

FHIR search operations are described here and the syntax used to describe AU Core interactions is defined here.

Any search parameter defined in FHIR may be ‘allowed’ by the system unless explicitly marked as “SHALL NOT”. A few items are marked as MAY in this implementation guide to highlight their potential relevance.

Parameter(s) | Conformance | Type(s) | Requirements (when used alone or in combination)
--- | --- | --- | ---
name | SHALL | `string` |
address | SHOULD | `string` |
address-city | SHOULD | `string` |
address-state | SHOULD | `string` |
address-postalcode | SHOULD | `string` |

#### Mandatory Search Parameters

1. SHALL support searching based on text name using the `name` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Location?name=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Location?name=Hospital

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Location resources matching the name (how to search by string)

#### Optional Search Parameters:

The following search parameters SHOULD be supported:

1. SHOULD support searching based on text address using the `address` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Location?address=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Location?address=QLD

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Location resources matching the address (how to search by string)

2. SHOULD support searching using the `address-city` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Location?address-city=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Location?address-city=Westmead

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Location resources for the city (how to search by string)

3. SHOULD support searching using the `addresss-postalcode` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Location?addresss-postalcode=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Location?addresss-postalcode=3005

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Location resources matching the post code (how to search by string)

4. SHOULD support searching using the `address-state` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Location?address-state=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Location?address-state=TAS

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Location resources matching the state (how to search by string)
