What do our Non-Emergency Ambulance Care Assistants say about their role?
"Every journey is different, but the best ones are where I come away feeling like I have really helped the patient. We provide such an important service for those patients with medical conditions which mean they can't get to their appointments any other way and being thanked for getting them there makes me feel like I'm doing something really worthwhile." (ACA based at Wakefield)
"I enjoy using my skills to adapt my style of communication to individual patient needs. Sometimes I need to give a clearer explanation of the manual handling task that we are about to complete - but I find it rewarding to be able to support patients with complex mobility needs to and from the hospital." (ACA based at Huddersfield)
