Hospital jobs for high school graduates with no experience?

I'm going to graduate high school soon and want to work in a hospital. I don't have any experience yet. Are there entry-level positions available that someone fresh out of high school might qualify for?

Absolutely! Many hospitals offer entry-level positions that don't require prior experience and provide on-the-job training. Here are a few you might consider:

1. Patient Transporter: In this role, you assist with moving patients within the hospital, from their rooms to various departments for scans, tests or surgeries.

2. Dietary Aide: A dietary aide helps with meal prep for patients, assists with food deliveries and sometimes even helps patients with their meals.

3. Receptionist or Information Desk Attendant: These roles involve welcoming visitors, fielding inquiries, and directing individuals to the appropriate department or patient room.

4. Housekeeping Staff: Hospital cleanliness is key to preventing infections, therefore housekeepers play a critical role in any hospital.

5. Orderly or Nursing Assistant: Depending on the state, some hospitals don’t require formal certification for certain nursing assistant or orderly duties. Do note that if you’re interested in direct patient care, obtaining a nurse assistant certification might be a beneficial first step.

Remember, every hospital has different requirements, and job titles may also vary. Also, these positions can provide excellent insight into the healthcare environment and can be a stepping stone to more advanced positions if you decide to further your education in healthcare. Good luck with your job search!
