Full event details

This talk unravels the mystery of the role of Operating Department Practitioners (ODPs), who provide skilled assistance to the surgeon and anaesthetists during the surgical process.  The care patients receive during an operation is complex and requires knowledge of anatomy and physiology as well as an understanding of the patients individual care needs during this vulnerable time in their surgical journey.

 

The Discover Programme consists of subject-specific lectures and workshops aimed at Year 12 or Year 1 college students, delivered by academics that teach at the University. 

These sessions are designed to both complement the curriculum and introduce new subject areas.
