This value set contains 15 concepts
Code | System | Display | Definition |
si | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Site | A collection of buildings or other locations such as a site or a campus. |
bu | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Building | Any Building or structure. This may contain rooms, corridors, wings, etc. It might not have walls, or a roof, but is considered a defined/allocated space. |
wi | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Wing | A Wing within a Building, this often contains levels, rooms and corridors. |
wa | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Ward | A Ward is a section of a medical facility that may contain rooms and other types of location. |
lvl | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Level | A Level in a multi-level Building/Structure. |
co | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Corridor | Any corridor within a Building, that may connect rooms. |
ro | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Room | A space that is allocated as a room, it may have walls/roof etc., but does not require these. |
bd | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Bed | A space that is allocated for sleeping/laying on. This is not the physical bed/trolley that may be moved about, but the space it may occupy. |
ve | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Vehicle | A means of transportation. |
ho | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | House | A residential dwelling. Usually used to reference a location that a person/patient may reside. |
ca | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/location-physical-type | Cabinet | A container that can store goods, equipment, medications or other items. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information |
Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
