    Trained volunteers can assist in clinical settings by performing basic nursing skills. Staff development programs are crucial for assessing needs, training volunteers effectively, and ensuring adequate patient care in understaffed facilities.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Education
    • Nursing Support
    • Volunteer Training

    Background:

    • Healthcare facilities often face nursing staff shortages.
    • Volunteers can potentially fill gaps in patient care.
    • Structured training is necessary for volunteers to perform clinical tasks.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline a framework for training volunteers in basic nursing skills.
    • To demonstrate the potential of volunteers in understaffed clinical areas.
    • To guide staff development educators in volunteer program implementation.

    Main Methods:

    • Needs assessment of the clinical area.
    • Skills assessment of available volunteers.
    • Development of a comprehensive orientation program for non-medical backgrounds.
