Operating Theatres

Theatres provide a high quality, safe and supportive environment in order to care for patients within the unfamiliar environment of an operating theatre and to meet all their needs effectively and with sensitivity. 

Theatres - Roles and responsibilities

A career in theatres can be rewarding due to the wide variety it has to offer. 

See our Theatres - Roles and responsibilities page for more information on individual roles and what's involved.
