Not the same kind of volunteering, A&E (car crashes, domestic abuses, etc...). Will push you several planets far away from your comfort zone and teach you how develop a strong sense of empathy and respect, make the most of your resources, stay creative and cold, split complex problems and order it by priorities, and find an aceptable solution (fast!) in extreme and often psychologically complicated sceneries.

Not easy. Very frustrating often, very tiresome and depressing (You will feel often like a superhero that do not have any useful superpower to show; balancing in the frontier with impostor-syndromeland...) but is a real, ruthless, teacher and can be incredibly rewarding (not to mention the nice adrenaline rush at 4am, also).
