Freshers’ week Timetable What to do & where to go
BSc (HONS) Operating Department Practice
Welcome to BSc (Hons) Operating Department Practice in the Faculty of Health and Social Care As well as classroom teaching sessions, the first week of your Programme will also involve induction and registration onto the Programme, and activities on both the Manchester and Ormskirk sites. This booklet should give you all the information you need, but please ask a member of teaching staff if something is not clear. Congratulations on successfully securing a place on the pre-registration Operating Department Practice programmes. This is the start of an exciting time for you and obtaining your degree will be the beginning of a life long career which is going to be hard work, challenging and extremely rewarding. The opportunity to care for patients when they are at one of the most vulnerable points of their treatment is a privilege, but it is also our privilege to be able to welcome you into the Faculty of Health and Social Care and be part of shaping your future. The Faculty is made up of 178 staff who are here to help teach guide and support you and ensure you have a positive student experience. In terms of practice, Edge Hill has excellent relationships with staff in operating departments throughout Merseyside, East Cheshire and Greater Manchester, and the practice placement experience of our students has been voted best in the country for two years running in the National Student Survey. Your Fresher’s week and induction week have been designed to give you time to settle into University life, introduce you to the programme, teaching staff and personal tutor. It is also about getting to know each other and making new friends. The first few weeks will be daunting and you will receive a lot of information; do not worry if not all of it sticks at first, you can always get further advice from your personal tutor, module leader or Programme Leader.
Don’t hesitate to contact members of Edge Hill staff at any time by email, phone or in person. Our reception staff are always willing to help if you are unsure or cannot find the person you need to speak to. We wish you well over the next three years and hope that you will make the most of all the opportunities there are for you. Remember, while this Programme is partly about us teaching you, it is also about you learning from us. That means you will have to work hard both in practice and in theory in order to achieve the learning outcomes for each module. If you find that you are struggling with your work or assignments, your first port of call is your personal tutor, so contact them for anything you need. Our role is to get you through this programme – your responsibility is to engage with the programme and get everything out of it that you can. It’s also worth noting that if you pass your assignments then you will have a better work life balance (more time for social activities!), because you won’t need to resit your assignments. In other words, work hard, play hard!
