Would volunteering at a hospice center count towards hospital volunteer hours?

Why does it need to count as ‘hospital volunteer’ hours? Are you just looking for medical experience? Or is there a particular requirement that you have to fulfill that specifies ‘hospital’ volunteering?

If you’re simply looking for medical experience, it should count as relevant

What is the context? Are you filling out a form that asks for “hospital volunteer hours”?

@halcyonheather like for college applications

If you’re talking about the Common App and similar application forms, they don’t ask for a number of volunteer hours. You just have ten spaces to list extracurriculars and describe them in your own words.

If you are volunteering in a medical setting and have interactions with patients, then you can count that as medical volunteering.
