    1. Calculate the average length of stay (ALOS) for adults and children in February (round to one
    decimal place).

    9457/1351=7

    2. Calculate the average daily census for adults and children in February (round to a whole number).

    12345/28=440.9

    3. Calculate the ALOS for newborns in February (round to one decimal place).

    231/93=2.5

    4. Calculate the average daily census for newborns in February (round to a whole number).

    553/28=19.8

    5. In addition, using Microsoft Word or a free Internet program you can export, develop a dashboard to
    report hospital trends of the patient activity requested.
