First Week of Internship - Job Description

In my internship I have two types of jobs. My first job description is working as a nurse. I go room to room just to talk with the patients to make them feel better because most of them are old and very lonely. I change the pitchers meaning the pot where they put water for the patient for drink. Sometimes the nurses send us downstairs to the pharmacy to pick up medical stuff.
My other job description is working as a transporter in the patient transportation department. I go in different buildings in the hospital to transport the patients to the lobby, meaning the entrance. I take them in front of the door. Sometimes when I see the patients cannot walk, I take them alway outside wait for them and help them find a taxi if they are not with their family members. I also had to find wealchairs in different parts of the hospital and it's really hard to find one because everybody is loocking for one. Sometimes when we are not busy at the transportation department, I do some filing and I organize some papers for my mentor.
