Introduction Ensuring adequate training for doctors managing otolaryngology emergencies remains a challenge. Simulation-based training has emerged as an effective method to improve procedural competency. This study describes a low-cost, reusable ENT essential skills trainer designed to facilitate the practice of fundamental otolaryngology procedures. Materials and Methods A homemade simulator was constructed using a Styrofoam head, plastic tubing, and readily available materials. It incorporates models for nasal packing, otology skills (microsuction, myringotomy), flexible nasolaryngoscopy, and tracheal stoma care. Anatomical realism was enhanced by adding colour and pathological features.  Results The trainer has been implemented in ENT induction programmes, demonstrating a significant reduction in trainee anxiety and an increase in procedural confidence. A comparative study showed superior knowledge retention in junior doctors taught using this model compared to traditional lecture-based teaching. Medical student workshops incorporating the trainer resulted in an increased interest in ENT as a career. The model has been further adapted for emergency airway training and quinsy drainage simulation. Discussion and Conclusion This cost-effective, reusable skills trainer provides an accessible method for improving competency in key otolaryngology procedures. Wider implementation could enhance procedural training, reduce anxiety in trainees, and improve clinical outcomes. Further studies should evaluate long-term skill retention and formal integration into structured training curricula.
