NSW Health

HealthStats NSW is an interactive, web-based application that allows users to access data and tailor reports about the health of the NSW population. It provides information on the health status of the NSW population, health inequalities and the determinants of health, the major causes of disease and injury and current health challenges, trends in health, and comparisons between age groups and geographic locations.

These reports on mothers and babies in NSW combine the annual reports of the NSW Midwives Data Collection, the Neonatal Intensive Care Units' Data Collection, and the NSW Birth Defects Register. They contains information on maternal and neonatal deaths reviewed by the NSW Maternal and Perinatal Committee.

Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) are an ever-present factor in every health system. They are varied and complex. Many are caused by multi-resistant organisms known as MROs that can be difficult to detect and treat.

We produce a wide range of publications for the public, including reports, fact sheets, brochures and pamphlets.

Monitors health behaviours, health status, use of and satisfaction with health services, and other factors that influence the health of the people of New South Wales. The core activity of the program is the continuous New South Wales Population Health Survey.
