'Patient'

[jonathanbona]

The standard approach to representing a patient is to have an instance of 'Homo sapiens', and say that they are the bearer of a 'patient role' [1]. We may also want to then say that this patient role is realized by a process that the person participates in, such as a treatment they are undergoing.

That sounds good. I like that approach.
