Hospitals may require a current first aid certificate. High school students or first time job seekers who want to work in hospitals should do any type of volunteer job in hospitals, nursing or convalescent places to decide if they would really like to work around patients. Often hospital workers take nurse aide or licensed vocational nurse training and go into health care jobs.
