About Us

Our Quirky Journey from Nursestuff to eNurse!

At eNurse, we proudly celebrate our diverse team from a wide range of backgrounds. Our holistic approach goes beyond nursing to support the essential needs of all frontline workers and those who stand behind them. We don’t just sell equipment and scrubs; we care for the professional and personal well-being of healthcare professionals and the broader community. Our mission is to empower individuals from all walks of life while enhancing their work experience.

Our story began in January 2009 when Glen Riverstone, a dedicated emergency nurse from Rockhampton, had an “aha!” moment after experiencing a sharps injury. Rather than accepting this as an inevitable part of the job, Glen set out to innovate. This determination led to the creation of the SnapIT Ampoule Opener, which won the People’s Choice Award on ABC New Inventors in 2007. Recognizing the need for a comprehensive solution, Glen launched eNurse Pty Ltd in September 2010, evolving from Nursestuff.com.au into a one-stop shop for scrubs, clinical reference cards, equipment, and more. Our beloved elitecare Classic Unisex Scrubs, born from extensive testing and feedback, quickly became a favorite among nurses for their comfort and style. Thanks to the support of over 100,000 nurses, midwives, and healthcare professionals, eNurse has grown into Australia’s leading online nursing shop, dedicated to creating a vibrant community where we share stories, laughter, and support. Thank you for being a part of our journey—together, we’re making waves in the nursing universe!

Ethics

At eNurse, we wear our hearts and scrubs on our sleeves because we’re all about caring—for the world, its people, and our cherished healthcare professionals.

When it comes to our scrubs, we don’t just throw them together; we craft them with love and a strong ethical commitment. We proudly support the slow fashion movement, ensuring that the skilled individuals who create your scrubs are treated with respect and compensated fairly. Our dedicated purchaser, with over 40 years of textile industry experience, meticulously sources the finest materials, personally visiting each factory to ensure ethical practices—now that’s true dedication!

But our commitment to care extends far beyond our scrubs. We partner with ethical factories worldwide to protect the well-being of all workers because everyone deserves dignity. We also collaborate with university students across Australia and sponsor various community events, ensuring that our collective efforts spread warmth and support to those near and far.

Join us on this joyful journey of compassion, where ethical scrubs and a caring spirit unite in perfect harmony. Together, let’s make a difference, one stitch at a time, and create a world filled with love, respect, and kindness.

Here is some ways we help:

ParkRidge High School Nurse Student Program

eNurse is super proud to support the Park Ridge High School and their students. When we got a call that the school was not funded with equipment, we donated some. When the students needed unifrms, we made sure theyr were affordable. We also award their best students with nurse kits. This school is amazing and the team at Parkridge High School are incredible.

We collaborate with First Nation Artist to help build awareness and of our "Healing Country". This collaboration shows how both the healthcare and First Nation People are in the healing stage and how we can both move forward as one. This beautiful scrub is called the Yapatjarra Muu, which means "Healing Country in the Kalkadoon Language. Below Chernee Sutton (Artist ) and Dr Brad Murphy OAM. His staff proudly wear the elitecare Yapatjarra Muu scrubs as they create a wonderful talking point for their patients and staff.

eNurse wishes to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and gather. We pay respect to Elders - past, present and emerging - and recognise their ongoing connection to this beautiful country, with knowledge and stories that have been handed down since time immemorial.

For the RSPCA Queensland, we also donated printed scrubs, that bring joy to their staff. We also donated fun scrubs to nurses in Lismore during the very challenging flood period.

Meet Gill and the neonatal team at the Goroka Hospital in the Eastern Highlands in PNG, where ACNN nurses have been visiting since 2016 , twice a year teaching- until covid. This collaboration provides low-dose, high frequency training to increase the confidence, knowledge and skills of healthcare workers and village health volunteers (VHV) caring for newborns and their mothers around the time of birth. This training is underpinned by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Helping Babies Survive (HBS) program. 

University of Queensland Students supported the local hospital in Nepal. We donated products for their staff.

We like to spread joy in the community in tough times, and also promote happiness. When the floods hit Lismore, we donated scrubs to nurses sho were impacted. We also donated printed scrubs for their Fun Friday Scrub Days.

We are always caring about nurses and their best interests are in our hearts.
