The Living Well with Hepatitis B series is a set of simple English resources designed to improve hepatitis B health literacy within culturally and linguistically diverse populations.

Developed by Hepatitis Queensland, the series includes a reader, workbook and animated videos using simple English, along with plenty of visual illustrations.

There are four stories in the reader, and each story touches upon topics commonly associated with hepatitis B including transmission, prevention, pregnancy, new intimate relationships and liver cancer.

It’s a great resource for clients who may have recently been diagnosed with hepatitis B or as a tool to improve health literacy. These resources are also suited to students in the Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP).

Ayanda is pregnant is the second story in the series.

Ayanda learns how hepatitis B may affect her pregnancy and her baby.

She speaks to a nurse for useful information on how to protect herself and her baby.
