Virginia Adult Protective Services takes reports of suspected abuse, neglect or exploitation of adults aged 60 or older and incapacitated adults aged 18 to 59. Health care providers are among the mandated reporters under Code of Virginia 63.2-1606. The DARS online portal is for reports that are not emergencies; it sends each report to the local department of social services, which investigates.
The reporter, whether a mandated reporter such as a physician or nurse or any concerned person, completes the whole online report. Reports can be anonymous.

APS Online Reporting Portal
This form is completed online with Virginia Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services (DARS), Adult Protective Services, so there is no PDF to fill. Vero Scribe writes the visit note it draws on, so the details are ready when you complete it.
A form is listed only after its name and number were confirmed on the issuing agency’s or insurer’s own website, or in the form itself. Each entry links to that source. The list was last checked in October 2026. Forms and their requirements change without notice, so check the official page for the current version before you complete one.

No. DARS says the portal is for reports that are not emergencies. Call 911 if the adult is in danger. The APS hotline takes reports 24 hours a day, and local social services offices take reports directly during business hours.
