The All-in-One Micro Suction Equipment & Training Package. Train today - start tomorrow! This is literally everything you need to get started. Exactly the same, carefully selected equipment used daily in our own practice, so we know what's best!
We train registered ear care professionals with prior ear care experience, including ENTs, nurses, audiologists, hearing care assistants, and other medical professionals with proof of attendance at a recognised ear wax removal course. We will also consider those who have gained experience in ear anatomy, pathology knowledge, and otoscopy skills through working with patients.
Potential trainees should check with their governing bodies, registrations and societies regarding providing an aural microsuction service for the NHS, a company or independently.
