The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is a nutrition education and meal reimbursement program helping providers serve nutritious and safely prepared meals and snacks to children and adults in day care settings. This dataset includes the names and locations of participating day care sites and whether or not the site is Breastfeeding Friendly Certified with CACFP, participating in the Eat Well Play Hard in Child Care Settings (EWPHCCS) project, or participating in the Eat Well Play Hard in Day Care Homes (EWPHDCH) project. This dataset excludes Child and Adult Care Food Program participation provided at homeless shelters and legally-exempt day care home providers.

Not all counties in NYS are serviced by the grantees implementing the project EWPHCSS.

The EWPHDCH project is currently limited to the areas served by the contracted agencies.

The Child and Adult Care Food Program dataset is related to the Child Care Related Programs dataset on the www.Open.ny.gov website, however this dataset includes additional nutrition information. The Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) is currently working to update the Child Care Related Programs dataset on a more frequent schedule with the OPEN NY team. OCFS and DOH will then be able to synchronize in the near future. Temporarily, DOH has omitted addresses for regulated child care providers that provide home care since this information is available on www.Open.ny.gov by using this link: https://data.ny.gov/Human-Services/Child-Care-Regulated-Programs/cb42-qumz.

The Nursing Home Weekly Bed Census: Last Submission data is the most current nursing home data available. Available bed and occupancy information is self-reported and is not audited by the Department of Health.

The Department of Health requires nursing homes to complete electronic filing of each facility's licensed nursing home beds and availability by bed category on a weekly basis. This dataset is refreshed monthly.

This data includes the name, type, and location of active retail tobacco and vapor product vendors operating in New York State. Active retail tobacco and vapor product vendors include only vendors that were categorized as active (i.e. open to the public) on the date the data was downloaded from a DOH database. The vendor type includes, for example, convenience stores or grocery supermarkets. The location of the vendor includes its street address, city, state, zip code, municipality, and county.

The dataset provides training information extracted from Home Care Registry (HCR) application. HCR is a web-based registry of all personal care and home health aides who have successfully completed a personal care or home health aide training program approved by either the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) or the New York State Education Department (NYSED). This registry is the central repository of the individuals who have successfully completed State-approved education or training programs for Home Health Aides and Personal Care Aides. The Training Programs are the sources for most of the training information available in HCR. This dataset is refreshed on monthly basis.

This dataset provides the results from collecting and testing adult deer ticks, also known as blacklegged ticks, or by their scientific name Ixodes scapularis. Collection and testing take place across New York State (excluding New York City) from October to December, when adult deer ticks are most commonly seen.

Adult deer ticks are tested in “pools”, or groups of up to ten adult ticks per pool, for the Powassan virus, also known as Deer tick virus. These data should simply be used to educate people that there is a risk of coming in contact with ticks and tick-borne diseases.

These data only provide adult tick minimum infection rates at a precise location and at a point in time. Both measures, tick population density and minimum infection percentages, can vary greatly within a very small area and within a county. These data should not be used to broadly predict disease risk for a county.

Further below on this page you can find links to tick prevention tips, a video on how to safely remove a tick, and more datasets with tick testing results. Interactive charts and maps provide an easier way to view the data.

This dataset contains information on the names and locations of evidence-based self-management programs delivered by QTAC-NY partners, including street address, city, state, zip code, county, and Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) Program region. It also contains information about the capacity of each implementation site to deliver specific self-management programs. The data will be updated on a yearly basis.

This dataset contains the number and rate of children that reside in each New York State zip code, excluding New York City, who were tested for lead and identified for the first time within the specified time period to have elevated concentrations of lead in their blood. Under current NYS Public Health Law and implementing regulations, health care providers are required to test all children for lead at or around age one year and again at or around age two years. Health care providers are also required to assess all children age six months to 72 months of age at least once annually for lead exposure, with blood lead testing for all children found to be at risk, based on those assessments.

All acute care hospitals are required to report certain hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) to the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH).

This dataset contains the names, contact information, and county location for the federally authorized Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs), as well as the New York State regulated Eye Banks and Tissue Banks. These organizations work closely with the Department of Health (DOH) to educate the public regarding the need for organ and tissue donation and to facilitate the enrollment of individuals in the New York State Donate Life Organ and Tissue Donor Registry. The contact information and service areas provided in this dataset are subject to change without DOH’s knowledge since the data is provided by independent OPOs, Eye Banks and Tissue Banks.
