Saratoga
County Unveils Comprehensive, Near Real-Time Substance Use
Surveillance Dashboard
First
Upstate County to Offer Near Real-Time Dashboard to Aid
County’s Opioid Education, Prevention, Treatment and
Response Efforts
Ballston
Spa, NY –
Saratoga
County officials today unveiled a comprehensive, near
real-time substance use surveillance dashboard that will
help the county in its education, prevention, treatment,
and response efforts in combatting the opioid epidemic.
Saratoga
County Board of Supervisors Chairman Theodore T. Kusnierz,
Jr. said, “While Saratoga County has made great progress
in our fight against the scourge of opioids in our county,
substance use is still a problem in our communities. With
this dashboard our professionals in public health, mental
health, and law enforcement and our community partners
will have the data they need to provide comprehensive
prevention, education, treatment, and response services to
our residents.”
Saratoga County Department of Health
epidemiologists leverage data from six primary sources
that originate across multiple disciplines (law
enforcement, health care, mental health, and public
health) to provide a comprehensive picture of the burden
of substance use in the county. Further, the
standardized approach allows for the timely identification
of concerning patterns, such as a spike in a limited
geographic area over a defined period of time.
Current data sources include:
·
High Intensity
Drug Trafficking Overdose Detection and Mapping
Application Program (ODMAP) - (data include reporting from
SCSO, NYSP, and Saratoga Springs Police Dept)
·
New York State
Electronic Syndromic Surveillance System (Emergency
Departments)
·
Emergency
Medical Services (call data)
·
Saratoga County
Coroner’s Office (toxicology reports)
·
OASAS Treatment
Admission rates
·
NYSDOH Bureau
of Narcotic Enforcement
Supervisor
Phil Barrett (Clifton Park), Chair of the Saratoga County
Board of Supervisors Health and Human Services Committee
said, “The opioid epidemic has devastated communities
throughout the U.S. and like national and state trends,
heroin and fentanyl continue to be key drivers of overdose
deaths in Saratoga County. This dashboard will provide
critical information for the County to implement effective
strategies and initiatives to mitigate the effects of the
opioid epidemic in our communities and the Health and
Human Services Committee remains focused on supporting our
county departments in these efforts.”
Multiple
departments across the County will benefit from this data
including Department of Health, Mental Health and
Addiction Services, and the Sheriff’s Office. The data
will be especially helpful in identify high burden areas
and to track overdose ‘hot spots’ to quickly focus on peer
outreach, naloxone placement/distribution, and trainings
throughout the county. This data will also be used to
monitor trends over time and evaluate the impact of
prevention and treatment programs such as: Jail MAT
Program, Second Chance Program, and Naloxone distribution
and administration in the County.
Saratoga
County is also providing this public dashboard to assist
healthcare organizations, first responders, community
organizations, municipalities, and schools in their
education, prevention, treatment and response efforts.
Further, the dashboard provides residents with resources
for mental health and substance use prevention and
treatment.
Healthcare, Mental Health organizations, First Responders,
Law Enforcement can use the dashboard to track frequency
of overdoses and trends to help identify treatment and
resource gaps and to identify where education and training
and intervention efforts are needed.
Community
Organizations, such as the Prevention Council can use this
data in their prevention classroom lessons and to help
schools in their outreach to parents and staff. Community
and Faith-based organizations may also use this data when
seeking funding opportunities.
This data
can help municipalities at all levels with rapid response
efforts in the event there is a spike identified in a
locality.
Schools,
colleges, and universities can utilize data from the
dashboard to curate messaging for students and staff
around substance use disorders.
County
residents can find resources for both mental health and
substance use prevention and treatment & for awareness on
the dashboard.

the Surveillance Use Dashboard go to Savealifeto.day or

education, population health, local economy, the
environment, public safety and more are what our employees
enjoy here and help us to retain and attract new workforce
talent to this area. Come join us in one of the healthiest
communities in the nation!"
“When I
moved to Saratoga Springs from New York City six years
ago, I had no idea of the depth and breadth of cultural
offerings that the city boasted. But now, as the head of
Saratoga Performing Arts Center, which brings an estimated
100 million dollars into our local economy, I appreciate
first-hand how special Saratoga is. And it is no surprise
that it is the highest ranked county in NY State for its
unparalleled quality of life,” said Elizabeth Sobol,
President & CEO of Saratoga Performing Arts Center.
“One sign of a healthy community is the presence of the
arts. Saratoga has long been a place of inspiration where
people can connect with each other and become immersed in
incomparable arts and cultural experiences. A vibrant
cultural landscape serves as a beacon for investment, a
beacon for relocation, and a beacon for tourism. We are
proud to live and work in a community that respects and
elevates the arts.”
According
to the US News Healthiest Communities Rankings 2022
report, the “rankings measure crucial health-related
components of society with the aim of empowering citizens,
health care leaders and officials to make decisions about
policies and practices that can improve health outcomes
for all. Guided by a pioneering framework developed by a
committee appointed to advise the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services, the project scores nearly 3,000
counties on
89
indicators across 10 categories
that drive overall community health. Population health and
equity are the most heavily weighted categories, based on
the assessments of more than a dozen leading experts on
what matters most to a community’s health.”
