description | This profile represents the constraints applied to the Immunization resource by the International Patient Summary (IPS) FHIR Implementation Guide. A record of an immunization is represented in the patient summary as an instance of an Immunization resource constrained by this profile. It describes the event of a patient being administered a vaccination or a record of a vaccination as reported by a patient, a clinician or another party. | This profile sets minimum expectations for the Immunization resource common to most of the use cases. |
