are there any hospitals that accept volunteers for nursing jobs preferably in the acute care setting? i am currently reviewing for my nclex-rn exam, and i am wondering if there are any hospitals here in the bay area that accepts volunteer nurses. i volunteered at a local hospital, but the problem is, it is very much clerical and it isn't connected to patient care, like lobby desk, etc. i didn't have any interim permit since i already took the nclex before and failed. i feel that i am very much "dry" with my content since it's been almost 2 years since i had nursing practice. thanks
