The six Vytals we monitor:
Activity & Green Space
Evaluates neighborhood walkability, bike-friendly infrastructure, and public transit access to show how your community supports active living.
-
More than just movement, this Vytal measures how your community empowers active living naturally. We examine the infrastructure that turns exercise from scheduled obligation into daily rhythm—tree-lined sidewalks inviting evening strolls, bike lanes connecting neighborhoods to parks, and transit systems that encourage walking as part of the journey.
Communities that score high here make the healthy choice the easy choice, creating environments where taking the stairs, walking to the store, or biking to work becomes second nature rather than second thought. In these neighborhoods, children walk to school along safe routes, adults incorporate movement into commutes, and seniors find accessible paths for daily activity—all supported by thoughtful community design.
Food Safety and Nutrition
Monitors food recalls, restaurant inspections, and access to fresh food sources to protect your family's health.
-
Beyond simple recall notices, this Vytal serves as your community's nutritional guardian system. We constantly monitor regional food safety alerts, restaurant inspection reports, and access to fresh, uncontaminated food sources that impact your family's wellbeing.
Strong performers have robust food safety monitoring systems, responsive public health departments, and accessible channels for food safety education. These communities create environments where residents can make confident choices about what goes on their families' tables—whether shopping at local farmers' markets, dining at neighborhood restaurants, or accessing community food assistance programs. In these areas, families find it easier to maintain nutritious diets without undue worry about contamination risks.
Healthcare Access
Assesses the availability and accessibility of healthcare providers, specialists, mental health services, and preventive care facilities.
-
Beyond simply counting hospitals, this Vytal delves into the true healthcare landscape of your neighborhood. We analyze the intricate network of providers that form your community's healthcare safety net—from primary care physicians and specialists to mental health resources and preventive care facilities.
High-scoring communities offer residents healthcare that's not just available in theory but accessible in practice, where appointment wait times are reasonable, after-hours options exist, and transportation barriers are minimized. In these areas, regular check-ups, preventive screenings, and prompt care for urgent needs are within reach for all residents, creating a foundation for better health outcomes across generations.
Community Connection
Measures social engagement opportunities, support networks, and community spaces that foster meaningful connections and reduce isolation.
-
Far more than just counting community events, this Vytal measures the invisible social fabric that holds neighborhoods together. We analyze patterns of community engagement, social isolation risk factors, and opportunities for meaningful connection across demographic boundaries.
Leading communities build rich "social capital"—neighborhoods with natural gathering spaces, multi-generational activities, and support systems that reduce isolation for vulnerable residents. These areas create environments where seniors find companionship, new parents connect with support networks, and residents develop the kinds of relationships research increasingly links to better physical health outcomes. Communities scoring high here cultivate the subtle infrastructure of belonging that helps residents weather personal challenges and build collective resilience.
Climate Quality
Analyzes air quality, pollen levels, UV exposure, and temperature patterns that directly impact your daily health and outdoor activities.
-
More than just a weather report, this Vytal captures how your environment interacts with your wellbeing each time you step outside. We analyze the complex interplay of air quality indices, seasonal pollen patterns, UV exposure levels, and temperature extremes that shape your community's health environment.
Top-performing communities provide residents with cleaner air to breathe and natural spaces that buffer against environmental stressors—creating neighborhoods where opening your windows or spending an afternoon in the park supports rather than challenges your health. These areas often feature green spaces that mitigate urban heat islands, tree canopies that filter air pollutants, and community designs that minimize exposure to environmental toxins.
Viral Watch
Tracks local circulation of infectious diseases like COVID-19, flu, and RSV while monitoring vaccination coverage and hospital capacity.
-
More sophisticated than a simple illness tracker, this Vytal functions as your community's early warning system for infectious disease. We continuously analyze patterns of viral circulation, vaccination coverage, hospital capacity metrics, and transmission risk factors across your region.
High-performing areas maintain effective disease monitoring systems, appropriate healthcare capacity, and clear public health communication channels that keep residents informed without causing undue alarm. In these communities, residents can make confident decisions about gathering, masking, or seeking care based on real-time understanding of local conditions—not sensational headlines or outdated information. This creates environments where everyday life can continue with appropriate precautions during disease outbreaks, guided by science rather than fear.
OUR VISION
We envision a future where every family has access to clear, actionable health information that helps them thrive in their community.
We see neighborhoods where parents make confident decisions about which parks are safest for their children based on real-time environmental data. Communities where residents understand local viral patterns before planning gatherings. Families who know exactly when their local farmers' market offers the freshest produce free from recent contamination alerts.
Beyond individual choices, we imagine communities using shared health intelligence to advocate for needed resources—from increased healthcare access in underserved areas to improved air quality monitoring in neighborhoods carrying disproportionate pollution burdens.
This isn't just about data—it's about democracy in health. It's about transforming complex health metrics into clear insights that empower everyday people to make informed choices, hold systems accountable, and build healthier communities together. Because we believe true community wellbeing begins when health intelligence becomes a shared resource, not a privileged commodity.
In our vision, ZIP codes remain geographic markers, not predetermined health destinies.
Our Commitment
We complement, never replace, medical professionals.
We designed VytalSigns to enhance the healthcare ecosystem, not disrupt it. Our community health metrics provide valuable context to support better conversations with your healthcare providers. We believe in strengthening the doctor-patient relationship by helping you arrive informed and prepared. Our insights highlight community-level trends that your medical professional can interpret alongside your personal health data—creating a more complete picture of factors affecting your wellbeing. We're the bridge between population health statistics and your personal healthcare journey.
We prioritize clear, accessible communication.
Complex health data is only valuable when it's understandable. We transform sophisticated metrics into intuitive visualizations and plain-language explanations that don't require a medical degree to interpret. Our platform adapts to different learning styles, literacy levels, and accessibility needs—because community health intelligence should be available to everyone. We continuously test our communication approaches with diverse user groups to ensure we're breaking down barriers, not creating new ones. When you understand your community's health landscape, you're empowered to navigate it more effectively.
Our data is regularly updated and verified.
Behind every score lies a rigorous verification process. Our team of data scientists and public health experts continuously refresh our metrics, cross-reference multiple sources, and validate findings before they reach your screen. We maintain transparent sourcing for all data points and clearly communicate confidence levels and limitations. When information is preliminary or evolving, we tell you. In a world of information overload, we're committed to being your reliable signal amidst the noise—providing community health insights you can trust to make important decisions.
We protect your privacy and data security
Your trust is our foundation. We implement industry-leading security measures to safeguard your information and maintain transparent data practices that put you in control. We never sell individual user data, and we anonymize and aggregate information to protect identities when analyzing usage patterns. Our platform is designed with privacy as a core principle—not an afterthought. We believe that exploring your community's health metrics should never come at the cost of your personal data security.
