Course Overview

Operating Department Practitioners (ODPs) are a vital part of the perioperative process. Working as part of a team in this specialist and dynamic environment, it’s crucial they’re knowledgeable in surgical, anesthetic, and recovery procedures, anatomy and physiology, illness and disease, and overall patient care, as well as legal and ethical issues.

During this operating department practice degree, you’ll dissect areas like health, research, perioperative skills and procedures, and pharmacology. Learn how to treat and communicate with compassion, making patients of all ages feel at ease in the face of potentially life-changing procedures.

During our operating department practice degree, you’ll get hands-on experience and a feel for the pace of life in a real operating department in a variety of settings. Depending on where you live, your clinical placement could be in the Merseyside, East Cheshire, or Greater Manchester region.

Following graduation, you’ll have the skills that enable you to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) as a qualified ODP.
