So, how can we tag that a medical facility follows “Informed Consent” for HRT & healthcare for trans* people?²<br></div><div><br></div><div>`informed_consent=yes/no` on objects with `amenity=clinic` (or `healthcare=clinic`) seems obvious.<br></div></blockquote><div>As I understand "informed consent" may apply to many things, and here you are interested<br></div><div>about informed consent in some specific subsection of where it may apply.<br></div><div><br></div><div>( based on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informed_consent">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informed_consent</a> as I am unfamiliar with the topic)<br></div><blockquote class="tutanota_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid #93A3B8; padding-left: 10px; margin-left: 5px;"><div><br></div><div> But it could be misleading. In theory, all medical facilities follow informed consent for treating their patients. Except many don't for trans* people, a double standard.³ So what's a good tag? (I searched and I can't find anything now, or did I miss something?)<br></div></blockquote><div>I am not convinced that it is taggable in the first place. Based on my very limited (so far)<br></div><div>experience with healthcare I think that this kind of info will<br></div><div><br></div><div>(1) vary widely depending on a nurse/doctor/etc, or subclinic etc.<br></div><div><br></div><div>So there may be some individual problematic individuals, more or less<br></div><div>numerous, more or less pretending to not be problematic.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Especially if it is case of "In theory, all medical facilities follow XYZ".<br></div><div><br></div><div>I am not familiar with this specific problem, but one of family members<br></div><div>had an encounter with doctor that really should not be a doctor.<br></div><div><br></div><div>They had no idea whatever it was representative case, <br></div><div>extreme outlier, it was not even entirely clear whatever <br></div><div>they were a doctor working there or from other nearby hospital.<br></div><div><br></div><div>(I am kind of hoping that it was some idiot pretending to be a doctor)<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is it justifying to tag facility where this happened with<br></div><div>staff_publicly_mocks_dying_people=yes<br></div><div>?<br></div><div><br></div><div>(2) and there is a second part:<br></div><div>How would you even verify such tag? It is very hard to verify and keep up to date.<br></div><div><br></div><div>For example is it taggable that hospital XYZ is not following all disinfection rules?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is it taggable that some doctors are not washing hands?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is it taggable that doctors are rude/racist/helpful/experienced?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is it taggable that school is failing to prevent bullying?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is it taggable that factory is failing in mandatory safety requirements?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Is restaurant serving a fresh food? Is it tasty?<br></div><div><br></div><div>I think that all of that including<br></div><div>"medical facility follows “Informed Consent” for HRT & healthcare for trans* people?"<br></div><div>may fall under <br></div><div>"extremely hard to survey, unverifiable by other mappers, basically form of a review".<br></div><div>And therefore not taggable.<br></div><div><br></div><div>For example: how we would handle case where there is disagreement how given <br></div><div>place should be tagged?<br></div> </body>
