I actually mentioned this in another thread, but if you currently reside in SoCal, there's a program offered by several hospitals that provides pre-health students direct patient care experience. It's called the Clinical Care Extender Internship Program:

It requires a 1 year or 240 hour commitment. They admit interns every three months, so it's definitely something to look into.
Good luck :wink2:!

I am going to volunteer at hospital near home sometime. My university that I will be applying to in a year or so.. requires 100 hrs of volunteer work in a long-term care/acute/or clinical setting.
My question is.. what positions would involve direct patient care or interaction with patients? Are the following positions (below) okay?
-Emergency Services
-Clinic
-Nursing Unit
-Rehab Services
