The Ear Nurse Specialist Group is a professional group of specially trained Registered Nurses whose focus and commitment is Ear Health.  There are varying levels of practice within the group, which brings diversity, knowledge and skill  to this specialty.
The Ear Nurse Specialist works at an advanced level of practice in ear health and ear disease.

Initially the group was formed as  support for nurses working in the role, where they could  come together regularly to discuss issues and gain confidence in their practice through the help of colleagues.

Over the years, as numbers increased and the specialty grew, there was  a need for a formal professional group. 

The ENSG also developed a training / orientation programme for nurses new to the role. The main aim is for a high standard of safe, evidence basedpractice and to provide knowledge and skill necessary for this level of practice.
The training has advanced and is the only formal programme offered at this level.  It has the support of the ORL Specialists, DHB's, PHO's, and Nursing organisations.

This site is designed for those professionals wishing to know more about ear nurses, training, and ear disease/ treatment.
