One way to refine it further is The other option I know of is Unless you have a strong preference for healthcare 1 or 2, I suggest you tag both, as their tags do not collide and you'll reach a wider "audience" since neither scheme has clearly "won" yet. That said, most mental institutions are much more lightweight than a hospital. answered 05 Dec '13, 12:58  Vincent de P... ♦ edited 05 Dec '13, 13:24 aseerel4c26 ♦ |
Another option is to append "Psychiatric Hospital" to it's name= Tag answered 05 Dec '13, 10:10  nevw 4 Don't subvert the name tag, respect what the place is actually called. (05 Dec '13, 12:28) Vincent de P... ♦ |
Actually, there seem to be zero use of healthcare=psychotherapist/psychiatrist in the db either. So it looks like social_facility and healthcare 2.0 are the only psy* schemes in actual use.
Today there are 900 healthcare=psychotherapist vs. 40 health_specialty=psychotherapy. I recommend to avoid the healthcare 2.0 draft and rely on established schemas
Most mental institutions would be overseen by medical doctors specializing in psychiatry, so psychotherapy wouldn't be the right field. I think
healthcare:speciality=psychiatryis the proper tag in this case.Probably with emergency=no to indicate that the hospital does not have an emergency room.
