I was a volunteer Friday nights, so it was nice seeing the hospital at a different time of day. It is less busy during this time, and it was nice seeing the patients right when they were beginning to wind down. The staff was also extremely friendly. I like to order a sandwich for dinner before volunteering, and the lady who makes it remembered my order throughout the summer, even though I volunteered only once a week. It was nice having conversations with her each week, and even realized we come from the same area (before coming to Baltimore)!
What I wish was different
There is not much that I wish had been different. The only issue with volunteering at this time is that the patients begin sleeping so sometimes there is not much to do.
Advice
It is nice to see the hospital at different times of day. If you usually volunteer during a certain time, switch it up and it is a little different.
