Entry #6 Volunteering

Volunteering is such an amazing experience. You get to meet new people and help them out. I volunteer at Banner Estrella and I have loved being their. There are many nice nurses and staff that work there and have been very nice and appreciative.

Volunteering is a great way to get started at a hospital. If someone wishes to work as a CNA, nurse, or even as a doctor it is great way to gain some experience. When volunteering it is good to see what it is like to work there without actually having a job there. You can also begin to pick up on some of the things that CNAs or even nurses do. They also love to teach when ever they are not too busy. Which can be beneficial for someone who wishes to go into a CNA program or even into Nursing school.

Volunteering at a hospital does not necessarily mean that you want to become a CNA, nurse or a doctor. There are many things that you can gain from volunteering. For example volunteering at the gift shop can help you with retail. Volunteering in the cafeteria can be helpful in culinary.

You also don't have to volunteer at just a hospital. There are many places where some one can volunteer. People can be a volunteer helping a campaign, at school, at a nursing home, and many more places. Volunteering can become very rewarding and make the people you help feel so much better even if it just something small.
