I am going to be volunteering in a geriatric unit at a hospital where I will be interacting with elderly patients and will be specially trained to provide individualized companionship to older patients while they are hospitalized. Is this considered clinical experience for medical school applications?

You are going to be interacting with patients in the hospital. It meets my definition of clinical.
