==What is the purpose of processing the bed census data?==

The downloaded data from the Bed census Website contain one or more data collection times in a day for each unit. Only one daily data is needed in the Bed census database and the time that was agreed upon is 2:00 p.m.. The individual ~~sites~~ are asked to submit and fax their bed census data at 2:00 am and 2:00 pm and every time there is a change in bed census. However upon receipt of the faxed forms, it takes some time for the HSC clerk to enter the faxed information. So in order to capture the 2:00 pm data, the data before and closest to 3:00 pm is extracted from the downloaded data.
