Do not volunteer here! There are other hospitals that are way nicer to their volunteers. I have volunteered at a lot of places and different hospitals and my experience here was the worst. No break, no free meal, no rest time and no flexibility what so ever. The role I was assigned to was basically an unpaid housekeeper. One of the front desk staff once said to me "we are gonna get our money's worth from you today". I asked for another role and they refused. My knee would hurt after my shifts. They had others in the same role who were physically unable to perform their duties so whoever was able had to do all the work. While the staff at the volunteer office are just standing and chatting doing nothing, they'll have a volunteer clean up/wipe down their whole break room area even though they are tired from completing a hard task. They seem to forget that we are "volunteers". The only reason I did it was to help and give back. Not to be treated like I've been given this huge opportunity and I should be used to the max.
