To find the hospital census for January 5, we must start with the given hospital census on January 4 (which is 110) and make adjustments based on the data provided.
According to the data, there were 10 admissions, 2 discharges, and 1 admission and discharge (A&D).
To calculate the hospital census for January 5, we need to subtract the number of discharges and the number of A&D cases from the previous day's census, and then add the number of admissions.
Starting with the hospital census on January 4 (110):
110 - 2 (discharges) - 1 (A&D cases) + 10 (admissions) = 117
Therefore, the hospital census for January 5 is 117.
None of the options provided (A. 99, B. 100, C. 108, D. 118) matches the calculated hospital census for January 5 of 117.
