Operating Department Practice with foundation year

About this course

Operating Department Practice is the healthcare profession responsible for supporting patients throughout the surgical and anaesthetic process. Operating Department Practitioners work in the perioperative environment, which encompasses the period before, during and after surgery. They assist in the preparation of patients for anaesthesia, support surgeons during operations and care for patients in the recovery phase.
