Exciting Opportunity - Band 3 HCA Position in SDEC, YGC

We are pleased to offer a rare and exciting opportunity for a Band 3 Healthcare Assistant to join the Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) team at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd.

Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) is a modern approach to delivering urgent care that allows patients to be assessed, diagnosed, treated, and discharged on the same day--without the need for hospital admission. Operating within acute hospital settings, SDEC units aim to reduce pressure on emergency departments and inpatient wards by providing timely care for patients with conditions that can be safely managed in a short timeframe.

SDEC services typically run seven days a week and are staffed by a multidisciplinary team including doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants, and allied health professionals. Patients are referred from the Emergency Department, GP, or other clinical areas and receive rapid access to diagnostics, treatment, and specialist input.

The focus is on delivering high-quality, person-centred care while improving patient flow, reducing hospital stays, and enhancing overall patient experience.

Main duties of the job

Patient Care & Support: Providing personal care such as dressing, oral hygiene, toileting, and mobility assistance while maintaining dignity and privacy.

Infection Prevention: Upholding high standards of infection control through effective hand hygiene, environmental cleanliness, and equipment care.

Nutrition & Hydration: Assisting patients with eating and drinking, offering appropriate choices, and supporting independence where possible.

Monitoring & Reporting: Recording vital signs (e.g. temperature, blood pressure, oxygen saturation), calculating BMI, and documenting nutrition and hydration status. All findings must be reported to the registered professional.

Diagnostic Support: Performing Point of Care testing (e.g. urinalysis, blood glucose), collecting diagnostic samples (e.g. urine, faeces, sputum, wound swabs, venous blood), and ensuring proper handling and infection control compliance.

Pressure Area Care: Providing pressure relief as directed and reporting any abnormalities in skin condition.

Compassionate Care: Demonstrating empathy and advocacy for patients, carers, and families, promoting independence and therapeutic engagement.

Documentation: Maintaining accurate and timely records in line with clinical standards.

Communications: Provide appropriate routine information effectively to patients, carers and other staff.

Job summary

The Mental Health Practitioner is the Enable team's specialist for working-age adults whose mental health affects their ability to work. You will see patients referred through Enable triage, assess their mental health, risk and work situation, and agree a time-limited, work-focused plan that supports them to stay in or return to work.

You will also be the team's source of mental health expertise. You will advise and upskill colleagues completing workability plans, and help shape how the pilot manages mental health presentations. This is a primary care, early-intervention role; it is not a crisis or secondary care service. Patients needing longer-term or specialist treatment are referred on through agreed pathways.

Main duties of the job

Clinical assessment and intervention

• Carry out holistic bio-psychosocial assessments of adults referred with common mental health problems (for example anxiety, depression and work-related stress) by telephone, video or face to face.

• Complete a structured risk assessment at every contact. Escalate urgent risk the same day through the crisis, safeguarding and GP pathways, and record the decision and rationale.

• Agree a time-limited, work-focused plan with each patient, typically an assessment and up to three follow-up contacts. Draw on evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing, behavioural activation, problem solving, guided self-help and graded return to work.

• Use validated outcome measures at agreed points (PHQ-9, GAD-7 and the Work and Social Adjustment Scale) to track progress and inform decisions.

• Refer or signpost to NHS Talking Therapies (including employment advisers), community mental health teams, Access to Work, the Enable Social Prescriber and voluntary sector services, and follow up that the referral was received.

• Provide clear, concise feedback to the referring clinician and the patient's GP, including any recommendations on medication for the prescriber to consider. The post holder will undertake comprehensive mental health assessments and make referrals through agreed pathways.
