Happy ODP day to all our amazing colleagues across our theatre department!

What is an ODP?

Operating department practitioners (ODPs) work in three key areas; anaesthetics, surgery and recovery. In anaesthetics the role involves assisting the anaesthetic doctor during general and local anaesthetics.

We are very lucky in our department to have some of the most amazing ODP colleagues delivering first class care to each and every patient.

👸 A huge well done to Amy, one of our theatre HCAs for braving the big chop to raise money for the little princess trust 👸

"I have wanted to donate my hair for many years now while working in paediatric theatres. The beginning of this year I moved from within paediatric theatres out to paediatric reception where I get to meet and greet all our patients coming through for surgery. Since I started working here getting to hear everyone's stories and backgrounds it gave me the push even more so to donate my hair. It costs £700 to make one wig for one child so together if anyone would like to donate we can at least make one child smile 😊 xx"

Recently we have been celebrating our incredible We Are UHS Champions 🎉

These amazing individuals and teams have gone above and beyond for our patients over the past year 💙

Today we’re shining the spotlight on our trauma theatres team, winners of the chief executive’s award – clinical 🏆

In May, this team carried out a high-stakes emergency procedure for a critically injured polytrauma patient.

It was a complex case that demanded flawless coordination between surgeons, anaesthetists and nurses, as well as teams from interventional radiology, radiology and blood transfusion.

Their resilience, skill and unwavering commitment were truly exceptional – working under intense pressure and adapting swiftly to changing needs.

Huge congratulations to the trauma theatres team – you are true champions 👏
