About Us

Our Quirky Journey from Nursestuff to eNurse!

Once upon a time in January 2009, a brilliant emergency nurse named Glen Riverstone had an "aha!" moment. He had just experienced the dreaded sharps injury from glass ampoules, and instead of accepting it as "just part of the job," he decided to do something about it. Little did he know that this incident would set in motion a chain of events that would lead to the birth of our beloved eNurse!

Glen, armed with determination and a passion for innovation, embarked on a mission to create a safety device that would revolutionize the nursing world. And voila! The SnapIT Ampoule Opener was born, winning the prestigious People's Choice Award on the ABC New Inventors in 2007. Soon, nurses from over 15 countries were snapping their ampoules with ease and rejoicing in their newfound safety.

But Glen's entrepreneurial spirit didn't stop there. He realised that nurses needed more than just ampoule openers—they deserved a one-stop shop for all their nursing needs. And so, in September 2010, eNurse Pty Ltd came to life, emerging from the cocoon of Nursestuff.com.au. With a click of a mouse, nurses could now access a wide range of scrubs, clinical reference cards, equipment, accessories, and shoes—everything a nurse's heart could desire!

But Glen's journey was far from over. He wanted to take comfort and style to a whole new level for nurses. Months of dedicated testing and feedback from nurses led to the creation of our prized possession—the elitecare Classic Unisex Scrubs! These scrubs, available in vibrant colors and various lengths, quickly became the talk of the nursing town. They were comfortable, durable, and simply fabulous!

At eNurse, we take pride in our holistic approach to nursing. We don't just sell equipment and scrubs; we support the professional and personal needs of individual nurses. We're all about making nurses' lives better, both at work and at home. We're like your trusty sidekick, always there to brighten your day and offer a helping hand.

With the love and support of our amazing customers, eNurse has grown to become Australia's leading online shop for nurses. We're still proudly Australian-owned, and our passion for improving nurses' lives remains at the core of everything we do. Our product range continues to expand, catering to nurses of all modalities. We're constantly on the lookout for new and exciting items that will make you go, "Wow, I need that in my life!"

But wait, there's more! At eNurse, we're not just your average online shop. We're a vibrant community where nurses come together, share stories, and have a good laugh. We like to be a little cheeky and inject some fun into everything we do. So, join us on this quirky adventure and discover why our customers can't help but love us!

Ethics

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

When it comes to scrubs, we don't just stitch them together haphazardly; we create them with love and ethics. Why? Because we care about making a positive impact. We proudly embrace the slow fashion movement, ensuring that the talented staff who craft your scrubs are treated with respect and paid fairly. Our extraordinary purchaser, with over 40 years of textile industry expertise, scours the globe to source the finest products, going the extra mile to personally visit every factory—now that's dedication!

But our caring nature doesn't stop at scrubs; it extends to the broader global community. We forge partnerships with ethical factories to safeguard the well-being of staff around the world, because everyone deserves to be treated with dignity. We also join forces with important communities near and far, collaborating with university students across Australia and sponsoring a variety of events. Together, we strive to ensure that every corner of the community feels the warmth of care.

So, join us on this joyful adventure of caring, where ethical scrubs and a compassionate spirit come together in a harmonious dance. Let's make a difference, one stitch at a time, and create a world where love, respect, and quirky kindness reign supreme.

Here is some ways we help:

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.

For the RSPCA, we also donated printed scrubs, that bring joy to their staff.

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.
