I started looking for volunteering for the summer today. I found about one place and they do all kinds of volunteering: from Art with Elders to Young Independent Peoples Society (YIPS) One of the volunteering is "Friendly Visitor": Many residents at Laguna Honda have no one to visit them. As a friendly visitor you would talk with the residents, play games, socialize, read books, read the newspaper, letter writing, strolls, run errands, etc. Even if it has nothing to do with clinical situations, volunteering as helping others would help me become a better nurse. I am guessing. This is my first time volunteering, so any suggestions will help me. :)
