Hi all, I was investigating how to express the schedule from the point of view of the patient. e.g. to express the patient is only available in the afternoon for a home nurse visit. I see the the 'Schedule' resource allows to be linked to the Patient via the .actor reference, is that the way to go? Ideally though I would like something like the .availableTime and .notAvailable that we find in PractitionerRole but I guess it is a bit of a stretch to use that for a Patient. Any input is most welcome.

In terms of Scheduling a patient is no different from a Practitioner or a Device. Schedule/Slot could be used to identify "all afternoons this week" (i.e. 5 slots of 4 hour duration), but doesn't allow you (AFAIK) to express a thing like "in general, the patient is only available during the afternoon hours". @Brian Postlethwaite ?
