Topic: Social History Observation example

Disclaimer : I asked this question on stackoverflow as well.
I want to see example social history FHIR sample for alcohol, drug use, smoking etc. I understand it is supposed to get mapped to Observation but I could not find an example which will help me understand it better.
Thanks

We have a tobacco example (using DSTU2): http://fhir.cerner.com/dstu2/observation/, which leverages the Observation.related structure to reference each related Q&A (e.g. tobacco use, tobacco type, started at age). Due to an ugly invariant in DSTU2, we had to represent each answer as its own related observation.
Observation.code = Tobacco Type
Observation.valueCodeableConcept = Cigarettes
Observation.code = TobaccoType
Observation.valueCodeableConcept = Chewing Tobacco
Alternatively, going forward (after the observation invariant was modified in the current build), we could use a single observation per question.
Observation.code = Tobacco Type
Observation.component[1].code = TobaccoType
Observation.component[1].valueCodeableConcept = Cigarettes
Observation.component[2].code = TobaccoType
Observation.component[2].valueCodeableConcept = Chewing Tobacco
