What kind of jobs are those?

In my country, except janitors and people working cafeteria, pretty much any job in healthcare requires some kind of degree (exception is taking care of old folks in private homes, but even those require a substancial amount of staff with some kind of schooling in it)

Theatre support worker would be one example of a healthcare role that doesn't require a degree. This is in the context of the UK NHS. I'm unsure if an equivalent role is common within the healthcare systems of other countries.
Don't ODPs need to have a degree in England?

Yes, ODP is a role which requires more qualifications. It's a separate role from theatre support worker.
