Personal Narrative: My Pediatric Experience

I acquired some pediatric experience through volunteering at Shriners Hospitals for Children and working at the ASI Children's Center on Sacramento State campus. I have been volunteering, specifically for the Therapeutic/Childlife Department, for almost 2 years. This volunteer position has given me an opportunity to provide an environment that is clean and friendly for the patients and their families. I also assist my supervisors in making sure that the patients who are not with a family member to be safe and entertained. In addition, I also participate in a few bed-side plays with patients who are unable to come down.

My pediatric experience is enhanced when I worked at the ASI Children's Center. My position was the Student Assistant I.
