Default if text string

please could someone assist.

I'm looking to summarize a field, in Excel, which contains text.

The field contains text and I won't to look via an if statement for the
incidents of one particular word in the text string -something along the
lines of =if(a2 =*Nurse*,"Nurse Activity","Consultant Activity").
