[Tagging] Clinic that does admit inpatients

[osm.tagging at thorsten.engler.id.au]

How about generalizing the "building:part" pattern to a general ":part"
suffix that can apply to any main tag?

Cheers,
Thorsten

Hi everyone!

It would be very helpful to have a tagging scheme for departments of a
hospital (in order to prevent them to be mistagged as amenity=hospital
inside amenity=hospital, amenity=clinic or building=" + name=*). What about
amenity=hospital_department together with healthcare:speciality=*?

Best regards

suspect that if many people tag inpatient institutions with "amenity=clinic"
it is the same thing - that the polish word klinika is NOT a translation of
the english word "clinic" (other than stated in the polish wikipedia:
"Znaczenie angielskiego wyrazu clinic bliskie jest polskiej przychodni" or
at least near but not equal).
