Abstract
Ear, nose and throat (ENT) symptoms are frequently encountered in community settings, particularly among older adults, children and those with chronic conditions. Nurses and other primary care professionals increasingly deliver advanced-level care in the community, and advanced ENT competence is essential for safe, timely, and effective decision-making. This series provides practical guidance to support health professionals to manage common otological presentations independently, facilitating early recognition of red flags, appropriate referral and evidence-based management.
