How do we represent the Patient's room number in a FHIR resource?

Question

Looking at the FHIR documentation for Patient resource https://www.hl7.org/fhir/patient.html I can't find a way to specify a Patient's room number as it pertains to an organization (facility) that they may be associated to. I found the Location resource type https://www.hl7.org/fhir/location.html#Location but don't see how to associated that with a Patient.

Thoughts?

Answer 2

In v0.0.82 spec on the HL7.org website, the Encounter resource has a set of optional Hospitalization fields. Those in turn can point to Accommodation. One of the Accommodation fields is called 'bed', and refers to a location.

The "Current Build" documentation on github ( http://hl7-fhir.github.io/encounter.html ), has the Encounter directly referencing a more generic Location. But I've never been able to figure out how to reference these current builds by version number or time-date stamp, and thus: I don't know how long this 2nd paragraph of my reply will remain true/valid.
