If you search for "health"  on the open data portal and look at Environmental Health Bulk Data and open the individual data sets you will see data dictionaries.  There are many other health data sets I've added this information for.  Tried to add links here but they merged together for some reason.  Here is an example:Attributes of establishments that are currently inspected by and/or regulated by Louisville Metro Government. Personal/identifying data has been removed. EstablishmentID column can be joined to the EstablishmentID column in the Inspections table to show attributes of any inspections of the establishment.
