Hello everyone,
I've volunteered at a community hospital for ~two years, doing basic duties like get patients water/food, wheelchair sometimes, some clerical here and there. Nothing 'out of the ordinary'/crazy happened while I was there (patients were recovering & sleeping most of the time).. tbh, since I only volunteered 1 a day (4 hrs) everything was basic.. I did get to talk to patients once in a while (if they wanted to talk) about random things to make there stay comfortable (weather, grandchildren, etc), but again that was it.
My question - when interview time comes around, if my interviewer asks about "one of my most meaningful experiences while at the hospital" is it okay if I say "making the patient's stay comfortable as possible, like getting them water" which is how I felt useful?? is that a bad response??? or would [the interviewer] expect more?
