LOCATION	UK training centres in Birmingham.
GROUP SIZE	Small groups — three to four learners per trainer for close supervision.

WHAT YOU’LL USE

Microsuction equipment & tools covered

Clinical microsuction units & controls

We use standard clinical machines for ear care, with adjustable suction levels and in-line filtration for safe wax removal. Trainers also cover noise emissions, portability and single-use canisters.

Visualisation systems

Training focuses on head loupes, because they are the most suitable method for a beginner starting out in ear wax removal.

Otoscopy & documentation

You use standard otoscopes and video devices to examine the canal and drum. You also record case histories in line with NICE/BSA guidelines.

Essential single-use consumables

We cover disposable specula, fine suction tubes and Zoellner suction pens, especially infection control, correct sizing and safe handling.

Equipment standards & vendor considerations

The course reviews core UK expectations for safety, quality assurance and maintenance. It also gives guidance on choosing equipment and consumables. In addition, full equipment packages are available to buy from us.

Hands-On Practical Microsuction Training

During the practical day, you start with otoscopy and safe handling of microsuction equipment on training heads.

You then progress to supervised practice with real patients whom we have selected and who have given consent. As a result, you see different wax textures and ear canal anatomy within a controlled learning environment.

First, the trainer demonstrates positioning, depth awareness and controlled movement. You also learn how to stop immediately if discomfort increases or your view inside the ear canal becomes unclear. Finally, you practise on several supervised cases and receive feedback before sign-off.

What the Microsuction Course Covers

Ear anatomy and physiology
Types of wax, causes of blockages, and when microsuction is suitable or unsuitable.
History taking, consent, record keeping and medico legal duty in ear care clinics.
Red flags and contraindications with guidance on when to stop and refer to ENT or urgent support.
Prevention of infection, personal protective equipment, decontamination, room preparation for routine microsuction clinics.
Risk management, including potential microsuction complications, early recognition of adverse signs, and appropriate steps to stop procedures and escalate care or refer where required.
Clinical governance, integration into existing services and handling referrals or follow up plans.

Our training course is CPD accredited, so successful learners receive a Certificate of Training in Microsuction Ear Wax Removal confirming completion of supervised training. You can also log the combined e-learning and supervised clinical hours for CPD. We assess competence through observed procedures and theory application.

Turning Microsuction Skills Into A New Career

In the UK, the demand for ear microsuction services has been steadily increasing, especially after its removal from the NHS framework in 2018. As a result, more patients are now seeking support from private clinicians, community practitioners, and pharmacies, which have expanded their services to meet this need.

We design this course to assist delegates in confidently setting up and delivering microsuction services within their existing practice. It also includes operational aspects, such as appointment scheduling, templates for clinical records, documentation needs, and how the service can be incorporated into the hearing care or private clinic environment.

We also offer support after the course has been completed through our clinician WhatsApp group, which provides mentorship support as delegates start delivering the service.
