Creating a daily census count

[Mrocks013]

Preface: This is my first post.

I am attempting to create a daily census table for a 12 bed facility based on client admission and discharge dates.
The date of discharge should not be counted.

Welcome to the forum.

Exactly what are you trying to achieve? Do you wish to count the number of persons admitted per date?

Welcome to the MrExcel board!

Is this what you mean?

Thank you both for responding. Peter hit it on the head! Thank you very much!!

You are very welcome. Glad it's what you wanted.

(For any future questions, try to keep the sample data a bit smaller, so long as it is still representative of the issues. Keeps the posts & thread a bit easier to read & navigate.)

I have a similar problem that I need help with. I have a list of ventilated patients for which I know the start and end dates - see below. I am trying to figure out how I can calculate the average number of ventilated patients during a particular day of the month (How many ventilated patients we had on 2/5/16 for example). Is there some calculation that can help with this?

Thank you.

Your question isn't clear to me. You mentioned an average but then gave a specific date.

This should give you an actual count of patients whose treatment dates included at least part of the date in question. In this example, it is the yellow rows that have been counted.
Note that my dates are in d/mm/yyyy format.

Post back with more details, including the expected result, if this is not what you wanted.
