      Comments
      How would one communicate that a practitioner works as a general practitioner in Clinic X during the week and as an emergency practitioner in Hospital Y on the weekend?

      Should role, period, and location all be put under a grouping within the resource?

      Grahame's Comments
      This is related to the ongoing open issue about cardinality of practitioner resource and relation to role. I agree with Daniel - but this is a bigger change than this
