What can a volunteer do in a First Aid Hospital?

I want to volunteer/work temporarily in a hospital, do I need to be trained in first-aid or will they train me?

  • Answer:

    you will not get first aid traning becuse you will not be allowed to assist with anything like that or even use it alone. as a volunteer you will be either a patient companion i.e sit and chat with them, read etc or you would be helping out with the library trolley or sweet trolley

Volunteering these days means working in the gift shop, showing people how to get to where they need to go. Volunteers never have anything to do with patient care.

i would hope that someone volunteering would not be let loose on the patients! first aid course or not! and tbh i expect if there is a free first aid course then you could do that anyway. i am sure that if you contact the hospital you wish to help out at they will have any number of things you can do on this level to assist - raising funds, visiting etc.
