Move to proposal namespace?

According to taginfo, this tag does not appear in the database: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=healthcare%3Dcommunity_health_worker

Since this is a proposal for a new tag, rather than a description of a tag that is actually being used, it should be moved to Proposed_features/Tag:healthcare=community_health_worker and described as a proposal for a new tag. See Proposal process. --Jeisenbe (talk) 18:49, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Difference from amenity=health_post?

Can we clarify when this tag should be used instead of amenity=health_post? --Jeisenbe (talk) 19:22, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

IMO healthcare=* is more of the reference person than the facility (amenity=health_post) itself. There are health posts held by community health workers/community volunteers (healthcare=community_health_worker), by nurses (healthcare=nurse) or by midwives (healthcare=midwife). Which tag should we use to differentiate them instead of healthcare=community_health_worker? --Privatemajory (talk) 12:18, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
