Hepatitis Prevention Program

Hepatitis is a potentially serious illness, but it’s treatable with the right education and support.

The Hepatitis Prevention Program provides services to reduce viral hepatitis in Tasmania.

The ways we offer support includes:
- Helping people access testing for blood borne viruses (with a focus on Hep B and Hep C).
- Providing support for people as they undergo their Hep B and Hep C treatment
- Provide people with an understanding about transmission and ongoing prevention. For some this may include getting a Hep B vaccination.
