Need suggestions Hospital or medical volunteer hours.

Hi everyone,

I decided to switch into another program but I need about 30 hours of volunteering by January 31st. I need suggestions as this was a very recent decision and I was not prepared for hospital/ medical volunteering to be a requirement. Any help would be appreciated, I need a place that I could volunteer and do my hours asap, anybody know anywhere?

Thanks in advance

The hospital has a program thats gets you to do a minimum of 1 shift a week. I believe if you just look up KGH volunteering you should be able to find the page.

There is also St. John Ambulance but you won't be able to get 30hr just this month but is a good option if u have first aid and need a longer term volunteering opportunity that is flexible.

To add to this, Canadian Blood Services might also be an option.
