This profile sets minimum expectations for a RelatedPerson resource in the context of a patient summary in an Australian context. It is based on the[AU Core Related Person](https://build.fhir.org/ig/hl7au/au-fhir-core/StructureDefinition-au-core-relatedperson.html)profile, and applies the additional constraints for use in a patient summary context consistent with the profiling conventions of[IPS](https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-ips/). 

See [Comparison With Other National and International IGs](comparison.md) for a comparison between AU Patient Summary (AU PS) profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.

### Profile Specific Implementation Guidance

* See the [guidance on implementing the RelatedPerson resource](https://build.fhir.org/ig/hl7au/au-fhir-core/StructureDefinition-au-core-relatedperson.html#profile-specific-implementation-guidance) in AU Core.

**Usages:**

* Use this Profile: [AU PS Bundle](StructureDefinition-au-ps-bundle.md)
* Refer to this Profile: [AU PS Composition](StructureDefinition-au-ps-composition.md), [AU PS Pathology Result Observation](StructureDefinition-au-ps-diagnosticresult-path.md), [AU PS Encounter](StructureDefinition-au-ps-encounter.md), [AU PS MedicationRequest](StructureDefinition-au-ps-medicationrequest.md) and [AU PS Procedure](StructureDefinition-au-ps-procedure.md)
