Evaluation of the WA regional nurse-supported hepatitis C shared care program

Hepatitis C is a viral infection of the liver with significant morbidity and mortality. Managing chronic hepatitis C requires multi-disciplinary teams.

Nurse-supported hepatitis C shared care programs have evolved over the past decade and are now established in WA in the Kimberley, the Great Southern and the South West regions.

This report by the Western Australian Centre for Health Promotion Research (WACHPR) at Curtin University (commissioned in 2013 by the Department of Health Sexual Health and Blood-Borne Virus Program) evaluates the regional nurse-supported hepatitis C shared care program across WA.
