Do not know of any specific hospitals that have a shadowing program but bet once you contact someone in the nursing department they would allow you to shadow. You also may try gaining some insight at nursing schools, bet they would be able to lead you in the right direction. Also if you know someone who is in nursing she/he could seek permission to have you shadow her/him. Good luck to you!!

I don't know specifically about the hospitals in the city but I called the volunteer dept at one of the suburban hospitals and they arranged it for me. Hope that helps. You might also volunteer at one if you have the time. Sometimes they have positions on the floor with nursing on it. Good luck.
