Help Creating an Excel File to Calculate Student Commutes to Clinical Sites and Filter Site Details
Hello, I’m hoping someone can help me create an Excel document for a fairly complex need. I oversee a large number of students across my state and am trying to ensure fairness in the clinical rotations they are assigned to. I would like to set up an Excel spreadsheet that can: House student names along with their home addresses. List multiple clinical site addresses that students may rotate to. Calculate and display the commute time and distance (in miles) from each student’s home address to each potential clinical site. Additionally (if possible), I would love to be able to filter the clinical sites based on certain characteristics, such as: Types of MRI scans performed at the site Patient volume (high volume vs slower paced) Type of location (small town hospital, large city hospital, or mobile MRI unit) If the filtering features are too complicated, I would at least like help setting up the commute calculations between home addresses and multiple site addresses. I appreciate any guidance or ideas. Thank you so much in advance for your help!

I have started a new career with Home Health Care organisation that is engaged in: Working for the community of the vulnerable aged and pensioners Enhancing Later life Health of people Fitness for the future In current circumstances of Coronavirus pandemic, my job will be very challenging. It involves developing strategies for avoiding the virus and curing those who are sick due to the virus. The aged are most at risk and need special care and attention, almost like intensive care of patients at home. Dementia care strategy - focus on people living with dementia, people not living with dementia, families and friends of people living with dementia, colleagues and volunteers. Hand Hygiene strategy - ensuring care and safety of every individual from the attacks of micro-organisms, bacteria, chain of infection and the good health of the hands. Diabetes care strategy - focus on people who are suffering from Type 1 Diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes, managing diabetes by medication and blood glucose monitoring, administering and injecting insulin, elderly diabetics, diet and weight management. A check-list of the following procedures may be followed in Hand Hygiene as a matter of great emergency today: - Train and educate everyone in hand washing correctly. Many presentations have been illustrated by government agencies, including posters published by WHO. - Use of soaps for washing and bathing the hands, face, feet and other parts of the skin that are exposed. The infection is spread by physical touch and by coughing and sneezing when droplets touch other people within a very short distance. - Proper hand and face drying. Wet towels and tissues may carry the viral bacteria, they must not be touched and must be put in washing machine and dryer. Hot air drying may be the safe method. - Skin related problems. Care must be taken when treating skin that shows rash, inflammation, burns, sores and pores. Water may attract more bacteria and micro-organisms. An antiseptic soap and cream may be useful. - Frequently unwashed parts of the hands. Water should not be run over or splashed in high volume, as that will leave unwashed and dry parts. Best way to clean is that which shows shinning by rubbing and massaging all over gently. This will ensure that treated water goes beyond the hair and cleans the skin thoroughly. - Home care and hand hygiene. Ensure that the surface of everything is sparkling clean, washed and shinning. Take care of glass, door and window handles, pots and pans and other utensils, wash up all the dishes, cups, saucers, tumblers put in the sink or left on tables and worktops, clean up also the mobile phones, laptops and computer keyboards and screens, chairs, settee and furnishing. - Disposable gloves. Wear them properly and ensure they are fit and new, dispose of them properly and carefully after use so that nobody touches them and they don't touch surface of things. It is better to wash the hands with soap after removing the disposable gloves.Managing data sharing and access in healthcare systems
I am looking for general guidance on how healthcare teams manage data sharing and user access across different systems. I am interested in understanding common approaches for keeping data secure while still allowing the right staff to access what they need. This is more about best practices and real-world experience rather than a specific product issue. Any insights from similar healthcare environments would be helpful.
24 hour time slots from a specific time point
Hi! Is there a formula to make 24 hour time slots from a specific time? For example, 3/3/25 @ 0810. The 1st 24 hour box would be (3/3/25 @ 0810 - 3/4/25 @ 0810), 2nd 24 hour box (3/4/25 @ 0810 - 3/5/25 @ 0810), etc. Also, once those 24 hour prefilled dates and times are created for 15 days, is it possible to take a shreadsheet with dates and time entries and place them into the correlating 24 hour time slots from a specific time? For example, if an entry was dated and timed 3/3/25 @ 0935, and 3/4/25 @ 0700, both of those would fall into the 1st 24 hour box and so on. Thank you in advance for saving me hundreds of hours doing this by hand!Did Microsoft make an effort to lift poverty in South Africa?
