On behalf of the 2024 Endocrine Nurses Society of Australasia (ENSA) conference organising committee, we would like to extend a warm invitation to our ENSA members, colleagues, and business partners to participate in the Nurses’ Conference to be held at Adelaide Convention Centre, Adelaide, South Australia on the 11th November 2024. This meeting is held in collaboration with the Endocrine Society of Australasia (ESA), Society for Reproductive Biology and the Australian & New Zealand Bone & Mineral Society (ESA-SRB-ANZBMS 2024).

The theme of the 2024 ENSA conference is ‘HPA – all the way!’

In a similar manner to the way the Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) system assesses, monitors and regulates the human body, Endocrine Nurses do the same for their patients! We draw on a background of research and evidence-based practice to provide specialist nursing care right where it’s needed. This knowledge encompasses acute and chronic Endocrinology disease management across the lifespan, and expert utilisation of this knowledge in implementing independent and interdependent nursing interventions. Endocrine nurses support patients and their families as they navigate their way through investigations, diagnosis and treatment on their Endocrine-related journey.

Then just like the HPA feedback system we look for ways to improve and champion the art of Endocrine nursing. The annual ENSA Conference provides a unique forum for Endocrinology Nurses to share and engage, exchange real life expertise and information, and update the latest practises in Endocrinology, and pursue clinical excellence and improved health outcomes.

In 2024, we welcome and appreciate the support of our sponsors and trade partners in ensuring the quality of this meeting is at the highest possible level. In return, we ensure that you will benefit from significant exposure and opportunities to join this forum of highly experienced advanced practice specialist Endocrine Nurses from Australia and New Zealand.

Please join us in 2024 at the Adelaide meeting as we update our knowledge and skills in the exciting and rapidly changing speciality of Endocrinology.

Kind regards,

2024 ENSA Conference Organising Committee
