description: This profile represents a person’s care preferences during their care and treatment. Examples include, but are not limited to religious preferences, dislikes and fears, and thoughts and feelings to be shared. To promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation, this profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch for a patient's care experience preferences. This profile identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present in the resource and constrains the way the elements are used when using this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases.
