Welcome to the South West Surgery in Children Operational Delivery Network website!
The South West Surgery in Children Operational Delivery Network (SW SIC ODN) brings together healthcare professionals to improve the quality, safety, and consistency of surgical care for children across the South West.
Our network supports collaboration between hospitals to ensure that children receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time. We work collectively to develop clinical pathways, share best practice, support workforce development, and improve patient experience across the region.
