Operating Department Practitioners (ODPs) are part of the operating department team and are involved in the overall planning and delivery of a patient's peri-operative care, which is divided into the three areas: anaesthetic phase, surgical phase and recovery phase.

The ODP ensures that all patients are safe and operations are as effective as possible. (Source: www.nhscareers.nhs.uk).
