Question by Jenniferr.: What kind of work is involved in these areas of hospital volunteering?
I’m applying to volunteer at a local hospital this summer. On the application, there is one section that asks what kind of work I would prefer. What kind of work is involved in “Emergency Room” and “Outpatient Services”? I know that, being only a volunteer, it wouldn’t be anything critically important to patient health. so what kinds of tasks would you be doing in those areas?

Best answer:
