Healthcare tags

There is a healthcare proposal for OSM that should be considered. If Kibera's health features followed the proposal, they could look like the following:

currently in Kibera	healthcare/social_facility proposal best-fit	notes
amenity=pharmacy health_facility:type=herbalist	healthcare=alternative speciality=herbalism
amenity=pharmacy dispensing=no health_facility:type=chemist_over_the_counter	shop=pharmacy dispensing=no	current proposal doesn't specify `dispensing=*`
amenity=pharmacy dispensing=yes health_facility:type=chemist_dispensing	shop=pharmacy dispensing=yes	current proposal doesn't specify `dispensing=*`
amenity=hospital health_facility:type=vct_center	amenity=social_facility social_facility=healthcare speciality=venereology	current proposal doesn't talk much about testing
amenity=dentist health_facility:type=dental_clinic	amenity=social_facility social_facility=healthcare healthcare=dentist
amenity=public_building health_facility:type=health_programme	amenity=social_facility social_facility=outreach	Is there a nice way to say "health outreach"? `social_facility:for=health`?
health_facility:type=training_institution	healthcare=yes speciality=community	Really need a way to say "health training"--`social_facility=training`, `social_facility:for=health`?
amenity=public_building health_facility:type=rehabilitation_center	depends	for drugs, `speciality=pharmacology` might work. maybe `healthcare=rehabilitation` could be the root? for physical rehab, `speciality=physiotherapy` would do. It might be more accurate to use `social_facility=group_home` and `social_facility:for=drug_addicted`.
amenity=hospital health_facility:type=health_center	healthcare=polyclinic	not sure about the nuances of `health_facility:type=health_center`
amenity=hospital health_facility:type=medical_clinic	amenity=social_facility social_facility=healthcare healthcare=clinic
amenity=hospital health_facility:type=nursing_home_with_maternity	healthcare=yes speciality=gynaecology	`amenity=nursing_home`?
health_facility:type=laboratory	healthcare=yes speciality=immunology	this is open to bit of interpretation. should there be a root `healthcare=laboratory`?

First Review

User:Mikel reviewed health related tags on March 21, and uploaded changes to http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/4187666

Pre-existing Tags

These are all the health related tags.

amenity=pharmacy
amenity=hospital
dispensing=clinic
dispensing=yes
shop=chemist
dispensing=chemist
notes=clinic
dispensing=Chemist
notes=Chemist
operator=Amref
notes=Clinic
notes=this is a laboratory mainly serving the senye clinic in soweto west
note=also clinic and school
dispensing=*
amenity=doctors
NOTES=CLINIC
Health=*
FIXME=this is a laboratory mainly serving the senye clinic in soweto west

fixes

fix capitalization
removed dispensing=clinic/chemist/Chemist. only yes/no is valid value
removed erratic tags that did not apply
unifying to note=* and fixme=* from all capitalization and plural variants
removed Health=*
where clear, removed duplicates. otherwise added fixme to disambiguate.

thoughts

amenity=clinic is more appropriate than amenity=hospital BUT this tag is not rendered.
VCT centers not collected at a all
amenity=pharmacy vs shop=chemist. this is a subtle difference that needs clearing up
opening_hours needs verification
laboratory services ... needs new tag?
herbalists? ... needs new tag
much confusion currently between clinic and pharmacy and chemist. For instance, called clinic, tagged as pharmacy
can use comparison against other data sources ... MSF map, Kenya Health facilities, etc (http://mapkibera.org/wiki/index.php?title=Mapping_Users_Needs#AIDS_and_Health_Services, http://mapkibera.org/wiki/index.php?title=Data_Sources#Project_Maps)
JOSM ... layer editor

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Healthcare proposes some distinguish features between services

Second review

User:Ebrelsford reviewed health-related tags in August 2010 and made some changes.

Made features visible in main OSM rendering

Added amenity=pharmacy to
- health_facility:type=herbalist
- health_facility:type=chemist_over_the_counter
Added amenity=hospital to health_facility:type=vct_center
Added amenity=dentist to health_facility:type=dental_clinic

Types that still need rendering

health_facility:type=health_programme
health_facility:type=training_institution
health_facility:type=rehabilitation_center
health_facility:type=other (eg, Paolo's Home, described as a "Physiotherapy and Psychotherapy Home")

General rendering fixes

Broke a few nodes up to avoid overlapping tags:
- Holy Trinity Church separated into a dental clinic
- Kibera Community Youth Programme Computer School separated into a health_programme
Broke nodes off of ways (health facilities as part of roads or trails)
Removed obvious duplicates

Chemists

Added dispensing=yes for health_facility:type=chemist_dispensing, dispensing=no for health_facility:type=chemist_over_the_counter
Added health_facility:type={chemist_dispensing,chemist_over_the_counter} to appropriate features with amenity=pharmacy

Still need fixing

Some features have conflicting tags that make it unclear whether they are clinics, hospitals, or pharmacies.
- fixme=chemist or hospital?
Some features still look suspiciously like duplicates, but it's hard to tell from here
- fixme=duplicate?
