Arrow Entry level job in the medical field?

I am going to get my gen eds starting in the fall and then hopefully get into nursing school for the fall of '10... I'd like to find a job somewhere in the medical field, just to get my feet wet... Or even some sort of volunteer work in a hospital? Are there any jobs that I wouldn't need a degree for? If so, where can I look to find these jobs?

Thanks in advance! This board has been extraordinarly helpful!

You could work in medical records, as a unit secretary, or get certified to work as a Certified Nursing Assistant. I worked as a pharmacy technician at Walgreen's during nursing school (helped me to ace pharmacology!).

Patient care tech is pretty easy to find. Most hospitals have their own training course.
