IMPORTANT NOTE: This provisional data is being provided as VDH OEMS continues to improve its data systems. The data on this page will continue to change throughout the data system improvement process and will stabilize over time. Thank you for your patience.

This dataset contains Emergency Medical Services (EMS) information for reported emergency response incidents that involve a substance or have suspected substance involvement. Data in this dataset has been provided by ESO on behalf of the Office of EMS.

Please be advised that the accuracy of the data within the EMS patient care reporting system is limited by system performance and the accuracy of data submissions received from EMS agencies. While each record in this dataset is for a single patient involved in an incident reported by an EMS agency, unique patients may be counted more than once in the dataset (e.g., if a patient was treated by two EMS agencies, that patient may be counted in the dataset twice). This data should not be interpreted as the number of unique substance use incidents reported by Virginia EMS agencies.

For instances where medication was administered to the patient, the response to the medication is provided, if reported by the EMS agency (e.g., if a patient received "naloxone" and the response of the patient for this administration of naloxone was reported as "Improved", then the record will show "naloxone with Improved response"). In instances where multiple medications were administered to the patient, the administrations and their associated responses are provided as a pipe-delimited list in the order that the patient received the medications.

This dataset has been classified as a Tier 0 asset by the Commonwealth Data Trust. Tier 0 classifies a data resource as information that is neither sensitive nor proprietary, and intended for public access.

This dataset contains records of arrest incidents as reported by the Winchester Police Department in their daily arrest log. Rows in this dataset contain information about an individual arrested by the Winchester Police Department, the charge(s) made for alleged activity, and the count of how many such charges have been made for the arrest incident. A given individual may have received multiple charges in a given arrest incident. Personally identifying information, such as names and addresses have been masked. Records pertaining to juvenile suspects have had information redacted.

It should be noted a criminal charge is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

Clinically Managed Residential (ASAM Level 3.5) are defined by the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) as structured programs of skilled treatment services for for individuals in some imminent danger

This level of care is appropriate for adolescents with patterns of maladaptive behavior, temperament extremes and/or cognitive disability related to mental health disorders.

This dataset, based on data shared through the Framework for Addiction Analysis and Community Transformation (FAACT) Project, provides summary counts of incident patients for substance use responses reported to the VDH Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS) from 2018 to the present.

Each record in this dataset provides statistics for a Virginia Locality in a calendar month. Note that records may lag in being reported to OEMS by an EMS provider agency resulting in numbers that can change over time.
