Hello all,
Hoping to get some insight into volunteering. I have been a mentor for Big Brothers Big Sisters for 6 months now and I've put in 100+ extremely meaningful hours into it. I also work as a CNA at an Alzheimer's/Dementia home where I have gained more patient experience and have improved the lives of others more than any clinical volunteering position could offer.
That being said, I constantly see people saying that you need clinical volunteering for your application. I have ~30 volunteering hours at a hospital but I absolutely hate it; I do nothing more than clean up in the ER, give people directions, and stock cabinets. Given my other experiences, do I really need more time volunteering at a hospital?
