How do I identify the “group” which contains the location reserved by a patient?

Immediately after a patient reserves a location, I would like to identify the “group” containing this location.

I have the following command for identifying a location reserved by a patient:

getname(tonode(get (first (var (patient, VAR_PatientDestination)))))

I would like to know if this command can be made more efficient and, secondly, how do I identify the group that the reserved location belongs to?

The getarea() command will return the integer value of the area of the location you pass in. You can use this number to look up the name of the area at that index. For example:

treenode location = tonode(get(first(getvarnode(patient, VAR_PatientDestination))));
string areaName = getname(rank(AreasNode, getarea(location)));
