Hello all,

What were your duties when you volunteered at the VA med center?

Thanks

The same as any hospital, really. It depends on where you volunteer and what service you're in. I volunteered at one of the clinics and usually did stuff like bring patients in, take vitals, clear examination rooms, transfer specimens, etc. I knew a guy who volunteered at ophthalmology and didn't do much, unfortunately. I also knew a guy who volunteered at the ER, as well (you don't do as much yourself, but you probably see a lot more).

(Source: I volunteered at the VA, did clinical research with the VA/the nearby university, and now I work at the VA on the research floor)
