Ear Irrigation and Instrumentation half-day up-date

The Ear irrigation & Instrumentation half day update course is delivered via Microsoft teams. This enables practitioners to easily access updates to ensure practitioners keep up to date with current guidelines.

It is delivered by experienced specialist nurse practitioners who continue to provide this procedure daily, for safe practice we advise practitioners attend an update session every 2 years.

  This course aims to provide you with:

• A revision of the Anatomy and physiology of the ear
• A revision of common ear pathologies, including identifying red flags that necessitate specialist care
• A revision of ear examination in accordance to otoscopy guidance
• An audio-visual presentation of the irrigation procedure
• Procedural updates in line with current NICE guidelines 

Course eligibility 

This course is suitable for all healthcare workers already performing the irrigation procedure, who have previously attended the Ear Care Diploma or an Irrigation and Instrumentation course and require an update.
