| B Positive - all you wanted to know about hep B
This practical manual, produced in collaboration with The Cancer Council NSW, will provide primary care practitioners with an overview of current hepatitis B knowledge in Australia - a field which is constantly changing and evolving.
General practitioners and other primary care professionals play a critical role in controlling the impact of hepatitis B in the general population, through testing and vaccinating people at potential risk, as well as identifying those who may benefit from monitoring and treatment. Whilst childhood vaccination plays an important role in preventing new infections, prevalence of chronic hepatitis B infection in Australia continues to increase, predominantly due to the high rate of hepatitis B infection amongst immigrants from endemic countries.
The resource includes factsheets for patients living with chronic infection, as well as contact details for useful organisations and resources.
Hardcopy Handbook
A limited number of B positive - all you wanted to know about hepatitis B: a guide for primary care providers have been printed through the generous support of state and territory health departments.

This DVD was produced with funds from the NSW Ministry of Health, although it is a generic product. Distribution in NSW is free, however, outside NSW there is a charge of $60 per DVD (includes postage). If you are outside of NSW and you wish to pay for your order with a credit card (visa or mastercard) or if you require a tax invoice, please phone Claire Koetsier on (02) 8204 0743
This DVD has been produced for the community and health workforces. The stories on this DVD can be used to become familiar with what it is like to live with hepatitis C.
Hepatitis C is one of the most commonly reported diseases in Australia. There have been, and continue to be, improvements in treatments, although the number of people commencing therapy remains low. The stigma and discrimination associated with hepatitis C creates significant barriers to individuals accessing education, care and support and treatment services. It is hoped the personal stories related here will increase awareness and understanding of hepatitis C, dealing with symptoms, considering and managing treatment, and stigma and discrimination.
