What are the requirements for volunteering in a hospital? And what are some typical jobs of a volunteer?

Hi! I'm really interested in volunteering at my local hospital this summer to get an idea about how it might be like working there. I thought it would be a great way to learn, (I'd like to become a nurse when I'm older) and also a great way to get my community service hours done, because my high school requires 40 hours of community service to graduate. I just wanted to know what kinds of jobs I'd be doing if I volunteered at a hospital, and some of the requirements. Such as how old I would have to be. I'm a freshman in high school, and I'm fifteen. Would that be old enough? I'm really curious, and I'd love to volunteer!

    There is no federal standard on what you need to volunteer at a hospital. You need to contact your local hospital and view THEIR requirements. Most hospitals have a website and will list volunteer opportunities on there.
