While the Information has been prepared with all due care, the State of New South Wales does not warrant or represent that it is free from errors or omissions.

The Information is provided on the understanding that the State of New South Wales and its employees and agents have no liability (including liability for negligence) for any loss, damage, cost or expense arising from anyone using or relying on it, whether caused by an error, negligent act, omission or misrepresentation in the Information or otherwise.

Health advice

The Information is general in nature and does not take your individual circumstances into account. Talk to a health professional about your own health. If you have concerns about your health, see a GP or visit a sexual health clinic.

In an emergency, call 000.

Nurse Nettie

Nurse Nettie is provided by sexual health nurses from the NSW Sexual Health Infolink. Nurses answer questions to the best of their clinical knowledge and experience, but they cannot diagnose sexually transmissible infections or other health conditions, and their replies do not replace a consultation with a doctor.

Nurse Nettie is not an emergency or crisis service. If you are unwell, see your GP or go to your nearest emergency department. For support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732.

The Information may change without notice, and the State of New South Wales is not liable for the accuracy of any information that is printed, stored, interpreted or used by a user.

Health service listings

We list health services to help you find care. Some service information comes from the National Health Services Directory, managed by Healthdirect Australia. Service details such as opening hours, costs and eligibility can change, so please contact a service to confirm before you visit. A listing does not mean the State of New South Wales endorses a service.
